Biography
I am an Associate Professor of International Business Strategy at Warwick Business School, Strategy and International Business Group. My current research agenda focuses on the international growth and subsequent investment strategies of multinational enterprises, with a particular interest in the subsequent investment, exit and re-entry strategies of these firms. More recently, I have been involved in research examining the organizational outcomes of corporate social irresponsibility in different international markets.
My research has appeared in journals such as Journal of International Business Studies, Journal of World Business, International Business Review, Journal of International Management and British Journal of Management. Over the last few years, this research has won multiple awards at International Business conferences such as Academy of International Business UK-I, British Academy of Management and European International Business Academy. Aside from my research projects, I am an Associate Editor of Multinational Business Review and part of the Editorial Board of Journal of International Business Studies.
