Vindhya Weeratunga

Lecturer

I am a Lecturer in the School of Business at UNSW, Canberra. I teach both undergraduate (Organisational Behaviour) and postgraduate courses (People and Systems, Driving Performance) and undertake research mainly in the field of human resource management.

I am an HR practitioner / CEO turned academic. I draw upon my professional experience in people management to inform my research and increase the relevance and robustness of it. I have an emerging record of research excellence, working independently and collaboratively with researchers in Australia, the US, and the UK. My current research projects deal with employee engagement, well-being, future of work, HR practices and different demographic groups, in Australia, Sri Lanka, and the US.
