I am associate professor in educational leadership and have a PhD in Political Science. My research interests include principals' understanding of their role and assignment, agency, how leadership is influenced by contextual factors, and power relations between principals and teachers. 

I am involved in the Swedish national network for School Development, Organisation, and Leadership (NSOL) and the International Successful School Principalship Project (ISSPP).
