Welcome!
I am an Assistant Professor in the Department of Strategy and Innovation at the Copenhagen Business School.
My research examines how to achieve human development through organizations and their strategic management.
In ongoing and in published studies, I study questions such as:
- When can organizations attain performance advantages by nurturing human development and educational programs?
- How can organizations that serve the market for human development services attain scale?
- What managerial tensions emerge as organizations invest in human development? How to overcome them?
- How do distinct governance forms and new technologies shape human development by (and within) organizations?

I am originally from Brazil, where I lived for more than 25 years before moving to Canada to study at the University of Toronto (Rotman School of Management) while concluding a PhD in Business Economics at the Insper Institute of Education and Research (São Paulo, Brazil). Following my PhD, I briefly lived in Switzerland and then moved to the United States to work at the Harvard Business School. I am now happily living in Denmark.
