I lead the Healthy Work Lab at FIU and am dedicated to research and applied work in the areas of occupational health and well-being, talent management, and disability inclusion at work. I am affiliated with <a href=\"https:\/\/fiuembrace.fiu.edu\/\">FIU Embrace<\/a>, a university initiative to support the overall functioning of adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities. Through this partnership, I work to define and promote best practices on disability employment, as well as to establish organizational and managerial readiness through leadership development.

I have also led the development and localization of assessments used in global selection programs. My grant funding has made it possible to develop and implement the <a href=\"https:\/\/myweb.fiu.edu\/vblee\/about-dr-bruk-lee\/ready-to-lead\/\">Ready to Lead<\/a> training program aimed at developing critical skills and knowledge in supervisors of employees with developmental disabilities.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>My work has received state and federal level grant funding totaling over $3 million, been published in leading academic journals, presented at numerous conferences, and featured in major popular media outlets. I have served on the state-level committee for the APA&#8217;s Psychologically Healthy Workplace Award, as well as on SIOP&#8217;s Professional Practice Committee on Occupational Health, Safety, and Well-Being and the Disability, Inclusion, and Accessibility Committee.
