faculty member at the Amos Tuck School,
Dartmouth College, University of
Washington, Seattle, the School of
Administration at Boconni University,
Milan Italy, and the London Business

organizational recruitment, performance
feedback and appraisal, the
organizational justice within human
resource systems, executive careers, and
the changing nature of the exchange
relationship between employees and their
organizational employees. Her current
work is examining the fit between firms'
IT strategies, their HR strategies and
individual IT worker characteristics,
the innovation process, and middle
managers' and frontline employees' roles
in the success of large-scale
organizational change. Taylor is

Management's Board of Governors, and a
Fellow of the Society of
Industrial/Organizational Psychology
(SIOP).

She is well known for her research on
career mobility, staffing, and
performance management. She is on the
editorial board of the Journal of
Organizational Behavior and is the Human
Resource Editor for Sage Publications'
Foundation of Organizational Science
Series. Her current work examines the
changing social contract between firms
and their employees, the intersection of
strategic human resource management and
organizational justice, and the impact
of the e-economy on organizational
careers. Her book, Rhythms of
Academic Life (Sage Publications),
was published in 1996. Taylor

programs in the United States and Europe
