SOFIA'S BACKGROUND
Sofia's background is in organisational communication, with minors in management, marketing and international studies. Her interest in whistleblowing stemmed from a thesis on the topic:
"I noticed that whistleblowing is hot topic both in communication research and in practice in many organisations due to the EU Directive."
The trust of the organisation and the individuals within it, as well as the interaction between the leader and the active successor, continues to fascinate and intrigue. There are tensions in the field of whistleblowing to be explored, as well as much practical work to be done."
