A Preliminary Exploratory Measurement Model for Systems Thinking in Defence and Aerospace Engineering: A Bifurcated Framework Developed via Multiple Correspondence Analysis

Systems Research and Behavioral Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Modern engineering faces a ‘complexity crisis’ characterized by interlinked, multidisciplinary ‘wicked problems’, particularly within the defence and aerospace sectors. Although systems thinking is recognized as a critical competency for navigating this environment, empirical quantitative frameworks for its measurement remain limited.

Differences in mammal community response to highway construction across different levels of human land use

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Worldwide, transportation agencies have been involved in road mitigation efforts to reduce road mortality and promote connectivity of endangered species. Baseline data on how mammals respond to highway construction, however, are rarely collected in road mitigation and monitoring studies, including in the USA.

Drone‐based radiotelemetry and imagery systems provide an advantage over traditional techniques for estimating survival of dependent juveniles

Wildlife Society Bulletin, EarlyView.
We used drone‐based radiotelemetry and multispectral imagery to estimate detection and survival probabilities of blue‐winged teal broods in Saskatchewan, Canada. Weekly brood survival probabilities, estimated via Cormack‐Jolly‐Seber models, increased with age and were comparable between drone methods.

From steps to home ranges: How habitat disturbance influences the movement drivers of an arboreal primate

Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
Challenging the narrative about howler monkeys' high resilience to anthropogenic changes, our multiscale analysis reveals the costs of habitat disturbance to their movement ecology. We identify thermal limitations, reduced travel efficiency, and significant spatial saturation.

Laissez‐faire leadership, red tape and the meaningful work paradox

Australian Journal of Public Administration, EarlyView.
While meaningful work is widely recognised as a driver of job satisfaction, the role of leadership style and bureaucratic constraints in shaping this relationship remains underexplored. This study addresses this gap by investigating how laissez‐faire leadership and red tape moderate the meaningful work–job satisfaction relationship among Australian ...

On a conjecture of Rhodes

Semigroup Forum, 1989
This paper deals with a chain of three conjectures in the theory of semigroups. Conjecture 1: if a (pseudo) variety V of finite semigroups is decidable (i.e. one can decide if a given finite semigroup is in the variety), then so is the variety which is the Malcev product of V with the variety of all finite groups.

Untested Feasibility as Progressive Performativity: Towards a Desirable Future Through Transformative Responsible Management Education

British Journal of Management, EarlyView.
Abstract The call for transformation in Management Education (ME) has intensified amid global crises, including the climate emergency, social inequality, and recurrent corporate misconduct. While Responsible Management Education (RME) has emerged in response to these challenges, it often struggles to move beyond symbolic gestures towards substantive ...

Challenging Business Schools Through Subversive Performativity: The Potential of Art‐based Pedagogies

British Journal of Management, EarlyView.
Abstract Business schools are often criticized for reproducing growth‐oriented norms, but alternative pedagogies remain difficult to normalize. Drawing on Butler's theory of subversive performativity, this study examines how art‐based pedagogy enables academics to challenge growth logics in business schools by transforming their identities over time ...

Leadership Learning From Vulnerable Experience: On the Need for Reflexive Dialogue

British Journal of Management, EarlyView.
Abstract We approach this essay as individuals who have (sometimes painful) experience of vulnerable leadership and a desire to learn from this experience. We root our work in debates about dialogue and its relationship with reflexivity. We establish, through building on the relevant literature, how shared dialogue and reflexivity can support learning ...
