Great Post Doc opportunity for PhD in entrepreneurship, behavioral economics, or experimental psychology to co-create the Next Big Thing in entrepreneurship!
How entrepreneurs can strategically use environmental changes for entrepreneurial action and success has long been neglected in entrepreneurship and strategy research. The External Enabler (EE) framework addresses this by providing conceptual tools that allow knowledge accumulation across different changes to the business environment. Since its introduction, EE research has created quite a stir with several articles being among the best-cited in leading journals as well as attracting practitioner interest.
JIBS is recruiting two Post Docs to work on this topic with Prof. Per Davidsson, a co-originator of the EE framework and internationally acknowledged as thought leader and top mentor in entrepreneurship.
As a Post-Doctoral Researcher, we offer you full-time employment for two years, with a possibility of one year extension. Most of your time (80%) will be devoted to research while benefitting from and contributing in person to JIBS’ vibrant research environment. The remaining time is allocated for teaching (20%). It is an excellent opportunity to kick-start or boost a successful research career in an active and collegial research environment.
