Career History

Graeme Currie is a Professor of Public Services Management and Co-Director of the Centre for Public Leadership and Management at Nottingham University Business School. He carries out research in the area of knowledge management. His research suggests that the effect of information technology is likely to be limited unless attention is paid to wider organizational issues, particularly human resource management. His research has been published in Management Learning (2004) and International Journal of Human Resource Management (2003). He has also examined the impact of information technology upon the role of middle managers (funded and published by CIMA). For details see an academic paper published in New Technology, Work & Employment (2002).
