Research Philosophy and Themes

 

 
I seek better explanations of strategic and entrepreneurial processes by considering the institutional, historical and organizational contexts in which they are embedded. In this way, I strive to contribute to the strategy, innovation and entrepreneurship and family business literatures by bringing into the foreground, contextual or background factors that are often ignored, underspecified or treated as limitations or boundary conditions.
