Tobias Dennerlein studies workplace leadership, with a particular focus on 'empowering leadership' — how managers give employees autonomy and decision-making power, and both the positive and unintended negative effects this can have, such as unethical behavior or reduced performance under certain conditions. His work also touches on related topics like ethical leadership, trust in supervisors, and employee misconduct at work.
Publication output was sparse and irregular from 2017-2021 but has grown noticeably since 2022, with the most active years being 2023 and 2025.
