Wiebke Doden is an Assistant Professor in Organisational Behaviour at King’s Business School. Previously, Wiebke held a postdoc position at the London School of Economics and Political Science, funded by a prestigious mobility grant from the Swiss National Science Foundation.

Wiebke was awarded a Doctor of Science in Work and Organisational Psychology at ETH Zurich in Switzerland, after graduating with a diploma in Psychology from Otto-von-Guericke University in Germany.

Wiebke’s research in organisational behaviour focuses on two interconnected streams: career development (i.e., how individuals navigate career challenges) and self-regulation at work (i.e., how employees proactively manage their resources). Her work bridges these streams, addressing key topics such as career transitions, job insecurity, employability, job crafting, and psychological contracts, with an emphasis on the dynamic interplay between individuals and their work and socioeconomic environments.

Adopting a rigorous approach to research, Wiebke conducts longitudinal, multi-level, multi-source, and multi-method studies to provide an in-depth and nuanced understanding of these issues. Her work has been funded by various funding bodies (e.g., SNSF) and has been featured in leading media outlets, including The Atlantic and WirtschaftsWoche. She published in top-tier journals, notably the Annual Review of Organizational Psychology, Journal of Organizational Behavior, and Journal of Vocational Behavior. She also serves on the Editorial Board of Journal of Organizational Behavior.
