Lisette obtained her PhD from Eindhoven University of Technology in the Netherlands in January 2004 for her research focused on near misses and minor incidents, investigating the recovery steps taken in these events that kept them from developing into more severe accidents. She also holds an MSc in Industrial Safety Management from the University of Central Missouri (1995) and an MSc in Industrial Engineering and Management Science from Eindhoven University of Technology (1994).
Lisette’s main area of expertise is human performance management, specialising in human and organisational factors and work design characteristics that influence people’s work practices and performance. She has worked in research, training and consultancy in a variety of industrial settings across Europe and Australia, including chemical industry, oil and gas, mining, rail transport, and healthcare settings.
Currently, as a senior lecturer at UWA, Lisette teaches into several postgraduate programs across psychology, human sciences, business, and engineering. She is the course coordinator for the Graduate Certificate in- and Master of Business Psychology courses. Her supportive, engaging and practice-oriented approach in teaching and student mentoring and supervision has been recognised in several teaching awards.
As part of her role at UWA, Lisette continues her research on various aspects of human performance at work, through collaborations with the resources industry and with not-for-profit organisations, and through supervision of students in such collaborations. Recent projects have focused on procedure use and procedure management, on how front-line leaders juggle multiple job demands, on virtual teams, on industry-specific safety climate measurement, and on safety leadership and approaching safety differently, and have often led to organisational change.
