Martha Knox-Haly is an organisational psychologist and author of the book How to stop your workplace going pear shaped (Tilde University Press 2008). Her writing and practice is based on investigations of almost a thousand Australian workplaces.

Martha has close to 20 years experience as a practitioner and researcher in understanding the relationships between psychological conditions and workplace management systems. Her particular areas of specialisation are the prevention of occupational stress and bullying and the developing of performance management systems.

Prior to registration with the College of Organisational Psychologists in 1995, Martha was employed as a senior researcher in the Australian Centre for Industrial Relations Research & Teaching at the University of Sydney. She has given guest lectures at that institution as well as Macquarie University and the University of Western Sydney.

Over the last two years Martha has been part of the academic staff at the University of Sydney’s Faculty of Economics, where she lectures in strategic human resources, human resources risk mitigation, and recruitment. Martha is close to completing her fifth degree — a doctorate — which is an examination of the links between public policy and stress claims within the NSW public service.
