Expertise

I hold the H.M. King Carl XVI Gustaf’s Chaired Professor in Leadership at Stockholm School of Economics (SSE). I am also Distinguished Visiting Professor at Hanken School of Economics and Honorary Professor at University of St Andrews Business School.

My research currently focuses on craft organization, socio-ecological transitions in food production, and the embodied performance of leadership. I regularly contribute to international conferences and publish in journals such as Human Relations, Academy of Management Learning & Education, Organization Studies and Journal of Business Ethics. I have authored, co-authored or co-edited nine books, including the successful textbook, Business Research Methods, published by Oxford University Press. I have served as Editor-in-Chief of Management Learning and I am currently an Associate Editor for Organization Theory.

I have extensive research experience of working with practitioners in large businesses, small and medium-sized enterprises and public sector organizations. I work closely with doctoral researchers and welcome applications from students whose interests relate to my areas of expertise.
