In specific, most of his research cover these five area: 

1. Meta-analysis of leadership. This research direction involves the application of meta-analysis to leadership studies, offering a broader spectrum of research evidence and data. It aids researchers in gaining a deeper understanding of the essence and trends of leadership, thereby providing more effective support for policy formulation and practice.
2. Statistical modelling and data science in management. The primary objective of this direction is to uncover and leverage patterns and trends within management data, extracting valuable insights and developing methodologies for applying interpretive and predictive models to explain and forecast managerial phenomena.
3. Behavioural operations management. Behavioural Operations Management is an interdisciplinary field that integrates knowledge from various domains, including organizational behavior, consumer behaviour, and operations management. Its aim is to comprehensively study human behavioral patterns, design and implement strategies and solutions that influence human behavior, thus achieving the optimization of business objectives and societal benefits.
4. Big data, artificial intelligence and management. The potential benefits of artificial intelligence in business management have positioned it as a crucial area of focus for companies striving to maintain competitiveness in today's digital economy. Research in this direction empowers companies to automate processes, optimize operations, and derive insights from data.
5. Cranial nerve and top management decision making. One potential application of neuroscience lies in the realm of management decision-making, wherein incorporating insights from neuroscience could enhance outcomes and propel the success of businesses and organizations.
