Naomi Ellemers (born 31 January 1963 in Amsterdam) is a distinguished professor of social psychology at Utrecht University since September 2015.[1]

In 2023, she was elected to the American Philosophical Society.[2]

Career

Ellemers studied social psychology at Rijksuniversiteit Groningen from 1981 to1987 and graduated in 1991 in Groningen with her thesis Identity management strategies, followed by a position as assistant professor and later as associate professor at Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam. Between 1999 and 2015 she was a professor at Universiteit Leiden with the assignment sociale psychologie van de organisatie (Social psychology of the organization). Since September 2015 she is distinguished professor at Universiteit Utrecht. In 2019 she became honorary professor at School of Psychology University of Queensland in Australia.

From 2015 to 2023 Ellemers was member supervisory board PricewaterhouseCoopers Nederland (expert for culture and behaviour)

From 2020 - 2022 she was chair of the KNAW (Royal Netherlands Academy of Arts and Sciences) advisory committee Breeding ground prevention of undesirable behaviour in academia.

Work

Naomi Ellemers researches the way people live and work together in groups. She especially focusses on how people's behaviour is influenced by others around them - whether they are present or not. She does experiments on brain activity and physical stress, but also looks into how people behave at work.

Specialization: diversity & inclusion and integrity & ethical behaviour

In 2009, Ellemers received the KNAW Merianprijs (Academy Merian Prize). A year later she received the prestigious Spinoza Prize for her work regarding her specialization. In 2018 she received the senior Career Contribution Award of Society for Personality and Social Psychology. In 2019 she received the Aristoteles Prize from the European Federation of Psychology Associates (EFPA), as well as an honorary doctorate from the Université catholique de Louvain.

In 2010, Ellemers was appointed member of Koninklijke Hollandsche Maatschappij van Wetenschappen (Royal Netherlands Academy of Arts and Sciences) and as of 2011 she is member of Royal Netherlands Academy of Arts and Sciences. In 2014 she was appointed corresponding fellow of the British Academy for the Humanities and Social Sciences, and in 2020 she was appointed member of Academia Europaea. In 2022 she had the honor of being nominated For the SPSP Heritage Wall of Fame and was she elected for the American Academy of Arts & Sciences.

In 2005 she together with three other prominent female professors, Ineke Sluiter, Judi Mesman en Eveline Crone, established Athena's Angels, an organization which defend the interests of women academics

Ellemers is one of the lead applicants and chair of the board of the NWO Gravity Program Sustainable Cooperation (SCOOP). She is one of the initiators of The Netherlands Inclusiveness Monitor (NIM) which investigates the measures and actions organizations take to become more inclusive. It connects these findings to the experiences of employees and provides organizations with advice on which steps to take to become truly inclusive.

She cooperates with various compliance officers, among others Autoriteit Financiële Markten (AFM) in order to give advice on and to reinforce behaviour and culture in organizations.

In 2019 the Dutch feminist monthly magazine Opzij elected her for the Opzij top 100 of most powerful women of the Netherlands in the category education and science.
