Teaching

I teach in the following areas: Organization, Leadership, Strategy, and Management Control, Cross-Cultural Leadership, Human Resource Management, and International Management, Management Accounting as well as thesis supervision at all levels.

My teaching is conducted in both Swedish and English, including programme courses and single-subject courses in business administration.

I teach at both basic and advanced levels (bachelor's and master's) and actively participate in planning and developing courses, including creating new courses and course packages that guide students toward various degrees in business administration. My focus is on the long-term development of business administration education, exemplified by my role as a member of the program council for the International Business Administration and Economics programme.

In addition to academic teaching, I have experience in teaching and moderating training initiatives aimed at businesses and public organizations.
