Bio/Research

Dr. Barclay's research interests focus on fairness and its intersection with leadership and creating healthy workplaces. Topics include identifying how leaders can promote fairness (and the obstacles that prevent them from doing so), when and why unfairness occurs in the workplace (including how it can be prevented, mitigated, and recovered from), and how leaders can effectively manage fairness issues at the levels of the individual, group, and organization.

Barclay also examines how to help employees recover from unfairness and how to create healthy workplaces (e.g., promoting effective conflict management, understanding forgiveness).

Her research has appeared in top-tier outlets including the "Academy of Management Annals", "Journal of Applied Psychology", "Journal of Management", and "Organizational Behavior and Human Decision Processes". Her research has received numerous awards and has been supported by grants including the Ontario Early Researcher Award and multiple grants from the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada (SSHRC).

Barclay is also an enthusiastic teacher and mentor who has received multiple teaching awards and commendations including the Alumni Award of Excellence for Mentoring. She is currently an associate editor for the "Journal of Organizational Behavior".
