He previously was Assistant Professor of Marketing at Eindhoven University of Technology and Tilburg University. Michel achieved his B.Sc. in Mechanical Engineering at Hanze University Groningen, his M.Sc. in Industrial Engineering at the Eindhoven University of Technology, and he was awarded his Ph.D. in Marketing from the same university. Michel has published in journals such as Journal of the Academy of Marketing Science, Journal of Service Research, Industrial Marketing Management, Journal of Product Innovation Management, British Journal of Management, and R&D Management. He regularly reviews for a number of leading journals and currently serves as an Associate Editor at European Journal of Marketing (EJM) and is part of Industrial Marketing Management’s (IMM) review board.

In his research, Michel aims to understand what drives the success of radically new (digital) technologies in ICT, medical devices, manufacturing, and other industries, and how firms can design effective sales strategies for such solutions. Michel collaborates with leading high-tech organizations like Philips, Vanderlande Industries, KPN, Getronics, Ahrend, and the High-Tech Campus Eindhoven.

In terms of teaching, he has taught numerous courses on topics such as (1) new product selling, (2) business research methods, (3) marketing management, and (4) business to business marketing.

Courses
Supervision

Michel has supervised numerous PhD, MSc, BSc., and MBA students at various universities. Topics of supervision include digital sales/marketing, frontline teams, innovation selling, sales process research. Michel is currently only supervising sales management or artificial intelligence topics. Due to his research background, he prefers both qualitative and quantitative approaches (mixed method approaches) and is especially interested in research projects adopting a design science approach (i.e., where students aim to solve a practitioner’s problem by designing some solution, such as a dashboard, training protocol, marketing plan). Furthermore, Michel only supervises in English.

If you want to suggest a master thesis topic, please write a short summery of your research question including an argumentation for its scientific relevance.
