Benjamin Moon

Biography

I am a 3rd year PhD Candidate at the University of Calgary, supervised by Dr. Joshua Bourdage. My main research area pertains to workplace impression management, which are behaviours that individuals use to convey positive impressions of themselves to others at work. For instance, my dissertation investigates impression management as a multilevel construct in work teams. Additionally, I explore the role of employee personality in shaping work attitudes, behaviours and other outcomes. My research uses a wide variety of quantitative and qualitative methodologies, with a particular emphasis on meta-analysis and review papers. 

Over the next while, I will be applying for tenure-track professor jobs that have start dates in the Summer/Fall 2025.
