Autorenporträt
Professor Ewan Ferlie Ewan Ferlie is Professor of Public Services Management at King's College London. He has published widely on themes of change and reorganization in public services settings, especially in health care and higher education. He is also interested in the tension between the logics of professionalism and managerialism in these settings. His work seeks to characterise high level narratives of public services 'reforming', including New Public Management and post NPM narratives of reform, which include political, ideological, and technical components. He was elected as an Academician of the Social Sciences in 2008 and a Fellow of the British Academy in 2016. Professor Sue Dopson Sue Dopson is the Academic Director of the Oxford Diploma in Organisational Leadership, a Fellow of Green Templeton College, Oxford, and Visiting Professor at the University of Alberta, Canada.

Chris Bennett is an independent research psychologist. She was previously employed by the Medical Research Council, and as a Senior Research Fellow at the Centre for Corporate Strategy and Change, University of Warwick.

Dr Michael Fischer Michael Fischer is Professor in Organisational Behaviour and Leadership at Australian Catholic University, an Associate and Programme Director at Melbourne Business School, and Visiting Scholar at the Saïd Business School, University of Oxford. Trained as a business school social scientist and clinical group analyst, his research has a strong empirical focus on the practice-level microsociology of organisational change in research-intensive settings, especially in healthcare. He specialises in ethnographic and comparative case studies, analysing intersubjective relations, emotions and power, and their potential to mobilise organisational change. He is an elected member of several international learned societies, including Fellow of the Royal Society of Medicine, Fellow of the Royal Anthropological Institute, and Fellow of the Higher Education Academy.
