In addition, as a business academic that deeply believes in engagement with practice, I am always interested in cultivating relationships with organizations that are interested in my research. In the last couple of years, I have had the opportunity to work with leading consulting firms, investment/wealth management firms, branding and communications firms, firms that provide ESG data as well as other organizations, that focus on issues of sustainability and corporate responsibility. If you are interested in discussing the possibility of collaborating on a project, please email me with a short description of what you have in mind, and the suggested avenues of collaboration.
I am currenlty exclusively represented by Stern Speakers & Advisors for keynotes and advisory work. You can contact me via this website.
