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
