AboutAbout / BioMy main interests include learning and development, employee engagement and wellbeing, leadership, coaching and HR processes.
I have graduated with a Bachelor's degree in psychology from the Babes-Bolyai University in Cluj-Napoca in 2016, under the cognitive-behavioural paradigm. This program included a variety of psychology topics, ranging from statistics, psychometrics, neuroscience to clinical psychology, psychotherapy and industrial-organisational psychology. During my studies, I developed a strong interest for organisational psychology and HR. My thesis was a research project focused on the Job Demands-Resources model of occupational stress, particularly how 'multiple team membership' as an organisational design is perceived by employees as a job-related demand, which in turn decreases their work engagement. The study also explored the manner in which high levels of peer feedback moderates this correlation, diminishing the negative relationship between multiple team membership and work engagement.
I have also graduated from the University of Luxembourg with a Master's degree in psychological evaluation and assessment in 2018. This program has equipped me with further statistical and psychometrics skills, such as developing and evaluating psychological assessment instruments to use in the HR field. My Master thesis was once again focused on the concept of work engagement, where I developed a questionnaire to measure this construct dedicated to university students. The thesis included applying the questionnaire and the statistical analysis and interpretation of results, including judgments on the psychometric qualities of the questionnaire.
I am currently working in the Training department of a mid-sized organisation in Luxembourg. My main responsibilities are creating and delivering learning solutions, as well as administering the overall training function of the organisation. - ExpertiseTarget groupsAdultsReason for counselingFears, Depressions, Grief and loss, Trauma, Stress and conflict at work
