About
Dr. Maria Booth is a leading researcher in the digital transformation of public administration, with a focused expertise in Robotic Process Automation (RPA) within local government. Her work critically examines how automation reshapes the work situation of employees and the organizational conditions required for successful implementation. Booth’s pioneering studies, such as her 2023 paper on robot colleagues in Swedish municipalities, reveal the nuanced impacts of RPA on administrative staff, moving beyond efficiency metrics to explore real-world workplace dynamics. Her 2024 case study further establishes her as a key voice in public sector innovation, providing actionable insights for municipalities navigating the early stages of automation. With both papers garnering 4 citations each, Booth’s research is foundational for scholars and practitioners seeking to understand the human and structural prerequisites for effective RPA adoption. Her work is particularly notable for bridging the gap between technological promise and practical, employee-centered implementation, making her a vital contributor to the discourse on sustainable digitalization in the public sector.
