Dr. Mailys M. George

I am an Assistant Professor of Management at IESE Business School in Spain. Prior to joining IESE, I was an Assistant Professor at EDHEC Business School in France, and a postdoctoral researcher at IESE.​

​

Given my multicultural background, I have always been interested in understanding how individuals think about who they are and where they want to be. My research explores how individuals experience uncertainty when they move across roles, when they are confronted with identity threatening experiences, and when their working conditions challenge their relationships with colleagues.

My interest in these topics evolves from my motivation to foster greater diversity, inclusion, and well-being in the workplace. I use both quantitative and qualitative research methods.

 

I have published  on these topics in top-tier academic journals such as Academy of Management Annals, Journal of Applied Psychology, and Academy of Management Discoveries. I was awarded with various grants and awards, including a Fulbright scholarship.
