For successful bosses, abuse in the workplace can sometimes be seen as just 'tough love.' New research from Management and Human Resources Professors Robert Lount and Bennett Tepper shows that workers were less likely to show hostility to abusive

Research by Fisher's Jasmine Hu adds further context to recent findings that American married women are not being afforded the same remote working opportunities as their husbands, and more men are now working remotely from home than women.

As corporate workers return to their desks, companies are putting more effort into their office soundtracks. How can you stop it from becoming an office battleground?

A new study by Selin Malkoc, professor of marketing and logistics, may reveal part of the reason why conservatives are more likely than liberals to reject some COVID-19 health measures: They see boundaries as restrictions, as opposed to guidance.

Professor of Management and Human Resources Howard Klein says resolutions can be supported by an accountability partner, but not just anyone will do. “You want to be dedicated and unwilling to give up on your goal, which is more likely when you share that goal with someone you look up to.”

As many of us worked from home during the pandemic, it became evident that things were not particularly equal, even among dual-earner couples. "We found that men and women don't have the same experience working from home," said Jasmine Hu, part of the research team that explored gender differences in WFH experiences. "There are still some gendered differences in how they manage their job and family responsibilities."

Research by Professor of Marketing and Logistics Selin Malkoc highlights an important facet of leisure time, which connects with the belief that monetizing a hobby won't always bring happiness.

New research from Management and Human Resources Professor Jasmine Hu finds that leaders reap benefits when they reflect on — and learn from — their mistakes.

Men do fewer domestic chores if both they and their wife are working from home, according to research from Fisher's Jasmine Hu.

A new study from Professor of Management and Human Resources Jasmine Hu found "gendered differences" in how working husbands and wives experience remote work and flexible schedules.

Unclear roles and blurry work/home distinctions mean women are getting the worse deal from the remote work revolution, according to research from Management and Human Resources Professor Jasmine Hu. 

“We found that men and women don’t have the same experience working from home,” said Jasmine Hu, professor of management and human resources and the lead author of a new study that examined gender role differences in China and South Korea. “There are still some gendered differences in how they manage their job and family responsibilities.”

A new study from Management and Human Resources Professor Jasmine Hu shows that among dual-earning couples, both men and women completed more family-related tasks when working from home.
