Biography
Samantha "Sammi" Dodson's research focuses on how employees’ cognitions and emotions affect their interpersonal outcomes. Specifically, her current work addresses cognition and emotion as these phenomena relate to a) the causes and consequences of interpersonal distress (e.g., discrimination, sexual harassment) experienced by women and other stigmatized identities at work, b) the social effects of abstraction related to gender stereotypes, and c) understanding and alleviating suffering at work. She received her Ph.D. from the University of Utah and, prior to joining Haskayne, was a postdoctoral research fellow for the Montalbano Centre for Responsible Leadership Development in the Sauder School of Business at the University of British Columbia.
