Biography
Jeremy Dawson is Professor of Health Management, working jointly between the Institute of Work Psychology (within the Management School) and the School of Health and Related Research (ScHARR). He is a statistician by background, but has worked in the fields of work psychology, management and healthcare since 1998.
Research Interest
Jeremy's research falls broadly into three areas, with plenty of crossover between them – management of health care organisations, team working, and statistics. Recent projects in health care include a study of the effects of NHS staff engagement and experience on patient outcomes; various studies of team working in health care, particularly in mental health services; an examination of the effects of organisational restructuring in the NHS; and a project looking at the diversity of hospital staff and their representativeness of the local community. In 2014 he began an NIHR-funded study evaluating Schwartz Center Rounds® in the NHS, and between 2015 and 2017 he is leading an NIHR-funded study to develop and test a measurement of productivity in general practices.
