She has published in various international peer-reviewed journals, including the Journal of Organizational Behavior, the Journal of Career Assessment, and the European Journal of Work and Organizational Psychology and has presented her research at numerous international conferences, such as the Academy of Management Conference and the European Association of Work and Organizational Psychology Conference. Professor Nagy has taught undergraduate and graduate courses in organizational behavior, leadership development, personnel assessment, career development, and statistics at the University of Bern (Switzerland), the Philipps University of Marburg (Germany), and at the Swiss Distance University.
