糖心Vlog官方 Journeys: Felicia Yap on fiction, career changes and serendipity
BA BS MBA PhD
Karla is a social scientist and ethnographer of work. She studies how experts change their ways of working in response to radical change, with an interest in healthcare organisations. In particular, her research examines how emerging technologies, novel spaces and new tools transform how experts collaborate with one another to perform their work.
Karla holds a BS in Economics, summa cum laude, from the Wharton School, a BA in Asian and Middle Eastern Studies, summa cum laude, from the College of Arts and Sciences at the University of Pennsylvania, an MBA with distinction from Yale University and a PhD in Management (Strategy and Organization) from McGill University. Her recent fieldwork followed two of Canada鈥檚 largest tertiary care hospitals as they merged their specialty units and relocated onto a newly built and equipped CAN$ 3 billion super hospital facility. The papers emerging from this ethnography have won multiple awards: the sole finalist for the William H. Newman prize at the Academy of Management (AOM), two best paper awards at AOM's healthcare division, one best dissertation award at AOM's healthcare division, two best student paper awards and a paper of merit award at the Organisational Behaviour in Health Care (OBHC) conference and the Administrative Science Association of Canada (ASAC). Her co-authored paper in Information and Organization entitled 鈥榃orking and organizing in the age of the learning algorithm鈥�, is among the journal鈥檚 most cited papers.
Karla鈥檚 current research examines how experts coordinate their work under conditions of uncertainty, rapid change and complexity. She studies how emerging technologies and novel spaces are transforming work and cross-disciplinary collaboration in organizations.
