Short presentation
My research concerns issues relating to organization and governance. I draw inspiration from philosophy, poetry, and art, both theoretically and methodologically, to explore issues of sustainability, organization, and entrepreneurship. Previous research has concerned governance at the transnational level, in particular processes relating to auditing, monitoring, and regulation. Today my main interest lies in exploring collaborations for resilience.
