Overview
Dr Daisy Chung is a Senior Lecturer in Management at Bayes Business School, City, University of London. Prior to joining Bayes Business School, she completed a PhD in Management Science and Engineering at Stanford University, where she was a member of the Center for Work, Technology and Organization.
Dr Chung uses qualitative methods to conduct inductive research on technical work situated in specific sociopolitical contexts. Her dissertation examined the American biodiesel field to understand how members managed an uncertain regulatory and political environment and engaged in strategic collective action. In other research with co-authors, she studies occupational communities, examining processes such as coordination, organizational control, and jurisdictional change. In recent work, she is examining how technology firms are shaping the recruitment, interviewing, and hiring process in organizations.
Dr Chung teaches Introduction to Management for first-year Business Management students, the "Managing Strategic Change" elective on the modular and full-time MBA programs, and seminars in the PhD program. In 2016, she received a Staff Recognition Award for excellence in teaching.
Dr Chung is a member of the Centre for Professional Service Firms, co-leads the Academic Women's group, and serves as the admissions tutor for the Executive PhD programme.
She is an ad hoc reviewer for journals including Organization Science and Administrative Science Quarterly, and serves as an editorial board member for Strategic Organization.
