- Developed the Unobtrusive Corporate Culture Analysis Tool (UCCAT), a tool for analyzing corporate culture, and especially communicative dynamics within the culture (such as listening and speaking up).[9][10]
- Advanced the Cyranoid and Echoborg methodologies to study how people listen to what they see rather than what they hear.[11]
- Developed a pragmatist approach to studying big qualitative data.
- Used natural language processing, to show how patient feedback online could be an early warning signal of hospital-level mortality rates.[12]
