Another field of research for her was marginalized groups in the work environment. She increasingly used narrative elements and storytelling to convey her research results.
Another topic was her personal concern that she was always measured by her father Michael Winstanley's fame . This gave rise to her research on identity development in working life, but also on the fragmentation of identity under the pressure of different roles. Your research forms a new approach to management research.
