227 Curriculum Vitae CURRICULUM VITAE Emma M. Op den Kamp was born on the 13th of November, 1989, in Amsterdam, the Netherlands. After graduating from the Stedelijk Gymnasium Haarlem, she spent a year working at a publishing company, studying Italian in Florence, and traveling. After that, she started her Psychology studies at the University of Amsterdam. She specialized in Social Psychology during her bachelor’s, followed by obtaining her master’s degree in Sports and Performance Psychology. During her studies, Emma participated in the psychology honor program and worked as a student assistant and research assistant. Moreover, she worked as a performance psychologist at the Barlaeus Gymnasium Amsterdam during her master’s internship. She eventually ended up in Rotterdam, where she started a 2-in-1 year research master, Master of Philosophy in Business Research, at the Erasmus Research Institute of Management. During her time there, she worked as a research assistant for a large research project on goal-setting and writing interventions, a project that had brought her to Rotterdam in the first place. She left the program early because she was provided the opportunity to work at the Center of Excellence for Positive Organizational Psychology at the Erasmus University Rotterdam, where she started her PhD research that has resulted in this dissertation. Over the years, Emma has presented her work at several (inter)national scientific conferences, including several European Association of Work and Organizational Psychology (EAWOP) conferences and the Proactive Behavior Conference in Hongkong. Additionally, she co-organized the ‘Werkgemeenschap van onderzoekers in de Arbeids- & Organisatiepsychologie’ (WAOP) conference in Rotterdam, and later also provided workshops on her research to practitioners. Currently, she is working as an assistant professor at the Leadership & Management department of the Amsterdam Business School (University of Amsterdam), where she combines doing research with her other passion, teaching.
