Professor Julian investigates workplace interpersonal dynamics with specific focus on aggression and bullying, international conflict resolution, and diversity management. His methodological expertise in statistics and program evaluation supports research on strategic issue diagnosis, corporate social responsibility, and Sub-Saharan Africa contexts. He examines how uncertainty, threat, and opportunity shape organizational responses while analyzing diversity's paradoxical short/long-term effects in top workplaces.

His work increasingly incorporates Sub-Saharan African contexts to test institutional difference hypotheses regarding CSR and firm performance, while maintaining strong connections to organizational behavior fundamentals like workplace relations and conflict resolution.
