麻豆传媒

Overview

I joined 麻豆传媒 in October 2016 in my first academic post as a Lecturer in Marketing (T&R), following a diverse career in the private, public, and Third Sectors. My research focuses on inclusive participation in service innovation to improve health and well-being. Participation can be through individual consumption (e.g. use of self-service and digital technologies) and cross-sector collaboration at the organisational and societal levels. It also occurs through research that is designed to be participatory, involving both target beneficiaries and the public.

I actively contribute to building a vibrant and supportive research culture founded on collegiality, knowledge exchange, peer mentoring, and the development of strong academic writing practices. In 2017, I co-founded and continue to lead the NUBS Early Career Researcher Writing Club to help colleagues develop and flourish.

I proactively develop international collaborations (including those with the United Nations, among others) as Project Lead, Principal Investigator, or Co-Investigator. Since joining 麻豆传媒, I have served as a Co-Investigator (Co-I) on projects that have secured over £4.3 million in research funding.

My research outputs include book chapters and original articles in the Journal of Service Research, Journal of Public Policy and Marketing, Journal of Business Review, Marketing Theory, Academy of Marketing Science Review, Journal of Consumer Marketing, Journal of Services Marketing, Public Policy & Administration, Management Learning, and Sustainable Materials and Technologies.

My research focuses on disempowered and marginalised consumers and their use of technology, especially in a service context, to improve their own and others' health and well-being. This involves studying complex interactions between human and non-human actors at multiple levels to identify and characterise the role of sociotechnical and environmental affordances in expert service ecosystems. The aim of my broader research programme is to inform and engage different audiences, including marketing researchers, practitioners, and policymakers, about the use of technology for well-being, sustainability, and social justice.

I employ ethnographic interviews, observations, and participatory research methods, as well as netnographic and multimodal analyses of publicly available online data. I have utilised thematic and content analysis, social network analysis, machine learning, and topic modelling of large unstructured datasets.

I have particular expertise in the following contexts: interdisciplinary research, co-production of expert services, digital healthcare, mental health and marketing, family caregiving, and the role of the market and cross-sector collaborations, including multilateral organisations, in addressing gaps in public service provision to improve public value in different cultural contexts. 

Among my current research projects, I am employing a mix of advanced qualitative methods to assess how family, expert services and work contexts affect the need to manage neurodiversity for well-being across different welfare regime types in a digital era.

I am interested in supervising PhD students in the areas of

• Digital health services
• Neurodiversity and Mental Health Marketing
• Consumer resistance and responsibilization
• Service innovation to reduce plastic waste
• Family Caregiver Wellbeing, ageing and autism
• Sustainable Humanitarian Services

My approach to teaching in the classroom (and through my public engagement activities) focuses on providing opportunities for understanding and applying marketing theory in practice. This typically involves using research-led case study teaching methods to present students with realistic scenarios in which to practice theory-informed decision-making. Thus, classroom activities and group learning help students apply marketing thinking in complex human and organisational contexts.

Case study teaching also helps students consider different perspectives on the systemic factors affecting marketing, including the roles of culture, politics, regulations, education, social and environmental relations, and technological innovation. Developing their critical thinking helps students consider the ethics of decisions related to a portfolio of novel and relatively untested digital marketing techniques.

When teaching qualitative research methods, I encourage students to think critically about how evidence is constructed and evaluated. This knowledge is crucial for developing a nuanced understanding of the application of digital analytics in evidence-based decision-making.

Examples of student feedback

2024 Teaching and Public Engagement

I'm a postgrad student studying MSc International Marketing at 麻豆传媒 and I've attended a couple of lectures where you taught contemporary trends in marketing (which is one of my compulsory modules) and I got the opportunity to listen to you talk about neurodiversity in marketing. To be honest it was overwhelming for me because at that very moment, I was thanking my stars for having professors like you, who are immensely talented, wise, and its like you know almost everything about the industry.

MKT2008 (20/21 remote delivery)

I think MKT2008 is great - the variety of cases are brilliant and the amount of topics covered are brilliant. Josephine is lovely, takes all points on board and always offers constructive ways to improve knowledge going forward. The amount of work given is enough to challenge us to properly learn about strategies, without being too much, and the structure of the weeks are something that I really like in comparison to other modules I study, as by setting out all of the work that will be covered during the semester allows me to properly schedule and plan when I will be doing my prep work, a couple of weeks in advance. In terms of the actual delivery of the module, I think MKT2008 is fantastic. 

The module leader is extremely interactive, without making students uncomfortable. When asking questions, the leader will help those along who are unsure of the answer, whilst developing the students knowledge when they do provide an answer. I personally appreciate the fact that the module leader has a friendly approach, as the environment within both seminars and discussion boards are extremely informative but relaxed. 

MKT2008 (21/22 in person delivery)

I loved this module and thought Josephine Go Jefferies was a great module leader. The structure of watching online lectures then going to in person lectures to discuss the content and also having smaller group seminars to do a case study or questions was great. There was a bit of confusion at first that that was the structure as every module does it differently. However, I and some of my friends thought the assignment essay questions were not great. Both of them we didn't understand at first and didn't always see how it related to what we had learnt in the lectures. They also were so packed with different elements I found it so hard to get everything in she wanted while meeting the word count.

Thanks for my in-depth assignment feedback, I am thoroughly pleased with my result, considering I found myself overthinking the essay several times while writing. Additionally, I would just like to bring to your attention to how much I have enjoyed MKT2008 this academic year! I found the content extremely interesting and engaging, and the seminars really motivated me to learn all the content in fear of getting picked on to contribute, so I hope that was reflected within my work and contributions throughout the course of the year.

I would just like to say thank you again for letting me on the module this year, I have really enjoyed studying services marketing and think the module is run very well.

MKT2044 (20/21 in person delivery)

Good - A lot of example ! really interesting

This module was very interesting, especially as it is essentially based on study cases.

I strongly loved module leader lectures since that was really interesting and easy to understand

The lecturers were interesting and engaging. I also appreciated the inclusion of a guest lecturer form XXX and his professional input.

Learning about services, which are present in our daily life. The teacher made the subject interesting because of real case examples and the seminars were participative.

I loved this subject area because the marketing I already had was focus on object only. Here, I've learned all the attributes regarding services. It inspired me for my final thesis.

This course gave me the envy to study more in details the marketing of services in my future studies. The lecturer was fascinating thanks to her experiences and her wish to teach us what she knows, in the best way she can.

MKT2045 (20/21 remote delivery)

The style of the teaching and the atmosphere during meetings are really enjoyable.

MKT2045 (21/22 in person delivery)

This module was really good, a really good teacher, dynamic, with the desire to involve its students, to give relevant examples, it was really interesting.

This module was very complete with a lot of information to take in. It was the first time for me that I really had a course on service marketing so I was able to discover the whole dimension of services, the relationship with the customer... The seminar topics were very interesting and complete. The Canvas was complete and well organised which allowed me to follow the module successfully.

Has presented the marketing needed for intangible goods such as services which I had never considered when thinking about marketing.
