Human communication and interaction, be it in relationships of two or more people, in groups, teams or organisations, is influenced by individual contact behaviour and can be described over time, e.g. by the formation of patterns. Both perspectives, that of the individual and that of the social system are the focus of research on contact design, group dynamics and team effectiveness.
We focus on the following topics and projects:
- Contact and Contact Behaviour
- Group Dynamics and Agility
- Psychological Safety: Conditions of Emergence and Measurability
- Interaction Support through AI in Online Video Communication
