Dr Kevin Morrell, Consultancy in Human Resource Management (HRM) & Organisational Behaviour (OB)

'Making research relevant' is my Mantra when carrying out consultancy for organisations.

The term mantra comes from the Sanskrit for ‘instrument of thought’.  Mantras play an important role in Hinduism and Buddhism - as sacred texts or chants that are repeated to achieve enlightenment.  I use the term mantra to mean an ever-present, guiding principle that continually informs action and thought. This very short phrase, ‘making research relevant’, tells you more about my approach to consultancy than pages of mission statements and position papers would.  Most organisations have a broad choice when it comes to potential consultants and experts.  What sets my offer apart is that all the work is informed by academic research that I have either carried out myself, or with which I am extremely familiar.  My rare and valuable expertise is being able to make ideas from this research accessible and useful to you.  This is very different from relying on an off-the shelf approach; a regurgitation of (out of date) textbooks; or a stock of 'war stories'.  My passion is developing valuable, long term solutions that address particular issues your organisation faces.  These solutions are based on cutting-edge research.
