Welcoming Dr. Nhung Nguyễn-Thị-Hồng to HAPRI
What helps people working in public organizations put new ideas into practice? How do leadership, workload and the conditions of work shape their experience? These questions run through the research of Dr. Nhung Nguyễn-Thị-Hồng, whom HAPRI welcomes as a Senior Research Associate.
Dr. Nhung studies human resource management and organizational behavior in the public sector. Her interests include employee innovative behavior, organizational change, and diversity and inclusion. Her work also considers the conditions that support employee well-being and organizational effectiveness. Her research has appeared in Public Administration Review and Public Management Review.
The questions take several forms in her published work. A 2025 article in Public Administration Review examines illegitimate tasks and public employees’ innovative work behavior, including the roles of cognitive flexibility and trust in leaders.

Both are listed in her HAPRI publications profile.
