Dr. Sabrina SU is an Assistant Professor at the Department of Social Sciences and Policy Studies, The Education University of Hong Kong. She has a PhD degree from the University of Hong Kong and has conducted mixed method studies on various topics on youth work studies, career support services, organizational behaviors, workplace wellbeing, and capacity building among frontline workers.

Recognizing the impact of contextual constraints on young people's wellbeing and self-fulfillment, particularly those at risk, Dr. Su is committed to collaborating with multiple stakeholders to develop an enabling and empowering environment for youth to transition from their comfort zone to the zone of proximal development and further to the zone of aspired development. She is also dedicated to revealing the effects of misrecognition encountered by young people in different contexts.

Dr. Su's research studies are conducted with reference to a wide spectrum of settings, including workplace, family, school, and community. Her concepts, such as collective psychological ownership (CPO), experience-driven recognition (EDR), and more enabling others (MEO), have received positive feedback from international reviewers for their potential to promote individual agency and shared agency for enhancing the sustainable career and life development of diverse groups of people in various contexts. She has developed the “Experience-driven framework” (ED framework) for supporting the career and life development of youth with vulnerabilities, which comprises four domains, namely recognition, exposures, self-growth, and transferability (REST). She believes that expanding the sources of recognition can be a creative pathway to co-create an enabling and inclusive environment with young people to support them in daring to aspire and achieve their aspirations.
