Rate My Professor Olivia Oginska

Oginska served as corresponding author for the scoping review 'Scoping review of the impact of emotional intelligence on behaviours in human and veterinary healthcare teams,' published in Veterinary Record (2026). Co-authored with Michelle McArthur and Martin Cake of the University of Adelaide and Murdoch University, respectively, and Amy Zadow of the University of South Australia, the study reviewed healthcare literature owing to limited veterinary research. It found that elevated emotional intelligence fosters positive interactions and curbs negative behaviors in teams, advocating for EI-focused interventions to bolster retention. Additionally, she co-authored 'A cross-sectional study exploring associations between psychological safety, employee turnover intention and feedback skills in veterinary organisations,' also in Veterinary Record (2026). Surveying 367 professionals in Australia and the UK, the research demonstrated that psychological safety positively correlates with supervisor and co-worker feedback quality while negatively correlating with turnover intentions; supervisor feedback partially mediated this relationship, highlighting emotionally intelligent leadership's pivotal role. Oginska holds affiliations with both Murdoch University and the University of Adelaide's School of Animal and Veterinary Science, informing her contributions to veterinary professional practice education.
