Chris Jackson is a former Head of School and Professor of Business Psychology in the School of Management in the Business School, University of New South Wales. His research concerns understanding the processes underlying learning and personality from biological and cognitive perspectives. His interests span several different areas of individual differences including the biological basis of personality, laterality, how learning is related to personality, and how all this predicts performance. He has won 3 ARC grants and achieved well over $1M of grant income. He has a large number of peer reviewed academic publications reflecting his  work in these areas including publications in Psychological Bulletin, Leadership Quarterly, Journal of Applied Psychology, Personality and Social Psychology Review, Personality and Social Psychology Bulletin, and Journal of Personality. Recently he has developed an on-line psychological research laboratory for understanding these processes and how they relate to work outcomes. Chris has supervised 14 PhD students to successful conclusion and many have gone on to successful careers including at top Universities.
