Presentation

Dan is the Fletcher Jones Associate Professor of Entrepreneurship at University of the Pacific, and a 50% Professor in the BHL Department at CBS. A business historian by training, he uses historical approaches to study entrepreneurship, organizations, and industries.  His publications have used historical sources and methods to examine the emergence of new industries, the evolution of organizational forms, and the creation of novel market categories and valuation systems. Most recently, he has co-edited Organizations in Time: History, Theory, Methods (Oxford University Press), which examines the epistemic, theoretical, and methodological opportunities and challenges of using historical approaches in management and organizational research.  While at CBS, he will be engaged in a collaborative project on historical and historicist perspectives on entrepreneurship.
