Current Teaching Area
My teaching interests have spanned the areas of IS management and generic management at all levels, and at present most of my teaching time is devoted to postgraduate supervision of research.
Current Research Projects
My first degree was in languages - English, French, Greek - culminating in a masterate in Latin. My industrial experience was in information systems (IS) which led to a directorship in the Business Computer Systems Research Centre at Massey University, and finally to a PhD.
My current research interests are in the language of management. Some indicative publications and conference presentations are:
