Biography

Audrey Holm is an Assistant Professor of Management and Human Resources at HEC Paris. Her research focuses on shifting work dynamics at the individual, relational and occupational levels, with a particular interest in issues related to labor market inclusion and inequality.

In her dissertation, Audrey examined the work of counselors specialized in helping formerly incarcerated jobseekers. Audrey’s research has also included an examination of how expertise is translated across relational contexts, and how categorization occurs in qualitative analysis. Her work has been featured in the American Sociological ReviewAcademy of Management Review and Academy of Management Discoveries. She is currently on the Editorial Review Board at Organization Science

Audrey's work was awarded the Robert McDonald Advancement of Organizational Research Methodology Award in 2024, and Audrey was a finalist in the INFORMS/Organization Science Dissertation Proposal Competition and for the Academy of Management's Louis Pondy Best Dissertation Paper Award. She holds an M.B.A. from ESSEC Business School and a Ph.D. in Management from Boston University’s Questrom School of Business.
