Primary research areas

Stra­tegic de­vel­op­ment of mul­tina­tion­al sub­si­di­ar­ies
I re­search the stra­tegic de­vel­op­ment of sub­si­di­ar­ies. This in­cludes the struc­tures and or­gan­iz­a­tion of activ­it­ies with­in mul­tina­tion­al cor­por­a­tions, with a spe­cif­ic em­phas­is on headquar­ters-sub­si­di­ary re­la­tion­ships. Re­cently I have in­cluded is­sues such as power, polit­ics, ne­go­ti­ations, and ma­na­geri­al psy­cho­logy pro­files into this re­search. In ad­di­tion, I ana­lyze the brew­ery sec­tor from an in­ter­na­tion­al busi­ness per­spect­ive.

A bet­ter way to or­gan­ize

My research departs from the department´s focus area international business with cross overs to the department´s second focus area business and government, investigating the political structures of multinational corporations. Further, I investigate how MNCs address ethical issues. 

Through this research I seek to develop subsidiary legitimate and ethical strategies, both within the MNE organization, and in the host country where they operate
