Vanessa Bohns

Professor Bohns studies compliance, consent, and the difference between them. She examines these concepts in various organizational and societal interactions involving requests, including excessive work requests that can impact work-life balance, unwanted romantic advances in the workplace, and objectionable requests made by authority figures—issues that frequently impact people differently based on factors such as gender and race.
