Lisa Harris has led the development of several innovative educational programs and technologies throughout her career, often being among the first to do so. Some of her accomplishments include developing the first interdisciplinary bachelor's degree in e-commerce in the UK in 1999, the first master's degree in digital marketing in the UK in 2009, integrating a MOOC into a university module for the first time in 2015, and broadcasting a live lecture via Periscope to an online course, also a first in 2015. She advocates an approach of "leadership by stealth", where the focus is on empowering others rather than seeking personal credit, and building people up to shine through reliable support and collaboration.

This project investigated the effects of distributed and web-based working practices on team effectiveness through 16 interviews with practitioners. Preliminary findings suggest that while remote working can reduce social relationships through less face-to-face contact, it also provides access to a global talent pool and allows working free from distractions. However, major innovation may be hampered without physical collaboration, but web-based tools have potential to enhance collaboration if used effectively. The impact of working practices is also seen as critical.
