Research Interests
| In his research, Dr. Walsh examines the role of social processes in transforming negatively-construed conditions into constructive outcomes for individuals and organizations.

He uses qualitative and quantitative methodologies to examine how social identity and sensemaking processes shape and influence experiences of entrepreneurship, organizational change, and leadership. |
