Lecturer, Organizational Behaviour and Human Resource Management, The University of Western Australia
Joseph Carpini is a Lecturer of Organisational Behavior and Human Resource Management at the University of Western Australia, Business School. He completed his PhD in 2018 at the University of Western Australia, following postgraduate studies at the John Molson School of Business (Canada) and St Mary's University (Canada).
Joseph is passionate about using evidence-based practice to improve workplaces. To this end, Joseph's research focuses on three themes: mental health, work performance, and diversity. His research on mental health has focused largely on antecedents and outcomes of mental health issues or problems in the work context. He has also led several projects examining the potential utility of Mental Health First Aid within the tertiary education and pharmacy contexts. Most recently, he has expanded this work to the broader work context by examining Mental Health First Aid Officers across Australian work contexts. This research has been published in Early Interventions in Psychiatry. His research on individual work performance largely focuses on the outcomes of work performance for individuals, teams, and organisations. He has published research related to this topic in the Academy of Management Annals. Finally, Joseph is interested in the intersection of performance and diversity. For example, in a recent paper published in the Journal of Organizational Behavior, he examines whether women and men are evaluated similarly for being adaptive at work. His work actively contributes to the UN Sustainability Goals of Decent Work and Economic Growth (8), Reduced Inequalities (10), Good Health and Well-Being (3), and Gender Equality (5).
Joseph is also an award-winning educator and Fellow of the Higher Education Academy.
