EXPERTISE/RESEARCH INTERESTS

Dr. Jean Bartunek''s primary interests center around academic-practitioner relationships and organizational change.

In addition, she studies multiple dimensions of the processes of organizational change, especially relationships between change agents and recipients, and interactions within as across these groups.
