Profile
I'm a professor of management of technology and innovation at RSM Erasmus University. My field of expertise is the development process of new products and services in firms. This process is key for a company's performance. The process of creating ideas, selecting projects, developing products and commercializing them has to be well managed. Firms also have to excel in cross-organizational collaboration. By studying innovation in such firms as ASML, Philips and Unilever, my research group develops insights on topics such as organizational forms for systemic innovation, the effects of networks between people in the front end of innovation, and the proper balance between freedom and control in innovation activities. Amongst others, I published in Journal of Management Studies, Research Policy, IEEE Transactions on Engineering Management, Journal of Evolutionary Economy, R&D Management, and Group and Organization Management.
