Presentation

I am working with the development of public management and with emphasis on the strategic skills and tasks that should meet small and large scale challenges in the public sector. With respect to the CBS claim of ‘transforming society’, this ambition permeates my teaching, dissemination, research and networking. My focus is on analyzing these challenges, for instance public interdisciplinary challenges, and to draw out its implications. My focus is also on developing concepts by which these challenges can be approached and produce public value. My research has largely been on trustbased management and management steering technologies. Now focus has turned toward public value and how different relational-, and socio-economies are means to understand the new types of public value emerging in the public sector as well as ways to create and manage public value. The deep theoretical basis of my work is: systems theory in order to understand organizations as meaning creating systems; discourse theory in order to understand the genealogy of public value, the social contracts, public reforms, state changes; and socio-economy theory in order to understand and develop public value. Out of sheer fascination, I am also dealing with the temporality and speed of organizations, using the temporal concept offered by systems theory.

Primary research areas
  • Public management
  • Public value
  • Complex problems
  • Temporality and speed
  • Socio economy
