Bio

Jaclyn M. Jensen (Nowakowski) is an assistant professor of management at The George Washington University School of Business.  She currently teaches Human Resource Management for undergraduates and Managing Human Capital for MBA students.

Professor Jensen's research focuses on employee performance, specifically counterproductive work behavior (CWB).  Example CWB include engaging in off-task behaviors, intentionally working slowly, harassment, incivility, and aggression.  Her primary research focus is understanding the reasons why employees engage in CWB.  Her recent work has focused on the influence of organizational controls on organizationally-directed CWB and the relationship between revenge and interpersonally-directed CWB.  Her research has been published in Organizational Behavior and Human Decision Processes and the International Journal of Conflict Management as well as in several book chapters.

She received her Ph.D. and M.A. in Industrial/Organizational Psychology from Michigan State University and holds a B.S. in psychology from Ohio State University.  She is a member of the Academy of ManagementSociety for Industrial and Organizational Psychology, American Psychological Association, and Society for Human Resource Management.
