I am a freelance academic, and work for my own company Contrisk Ltd.

I teach on undergraduate, MBA and executive programmes at various universities.

These have included the Germany Graduate School of Management and Law, University of Glasgow, Lancaster University Management School, Beijing University of Foreign Studies, Thunderbird School of Global Management, Heriot-Watt University, and Aston Business School.

University lecturer

I educate students and managers to relate ideas from different management disciplines, from current commercial issues and from their own experiences, so that they can develop solutions in cross-functional teams. This fosters participant centred learning, and develops course participants’ critical analysis based on the wide range of experiences brought to the class room.

Researcher

My research interests include cultural perceptions of management control and enterprise risk management.
