Alice Levasseur’s research is focused on assessing workplace psychological health indicators, as well as exploring leadership practices that foster motivation and the engagement and mobilization of teaching staff. The comprehensive study of these variables, which have the potential to contribute to staff retention, fulfillment and well-being at work, considers the organizational and relational factors such as workload, autonomy, recognition, justice and relational trust as perceived by staff in educational institutions and the education system. Professor Levasseur has contributed to the development and promotion of these research areas in Canada and internationally, notably in France, in Switzerland, in the Netherlands and in the United States, through her involvement in multidisciplinary research projects and her participation in renowned scientific conferences such as that of the American Educational Research Association (AERA). Professor Levasseur completed her doctoral studies at Université Laval supported by the Joseph-Armand Bombardier Graduate Fellowship awarded by the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada (SSHRC).
