WEBINARS

I teach a free 3h-webinar on “Venture Capital, Business Angels, and Startups”. It has been attended by more than 25.000 people. There are two people who took it eleven times. I taught it 103 times. You can sign up here.

I also run the INSEAD webinar “Between the Lines” I interview (mostly) business school professors who have written great books; for example, I have interviewed Herminia Ibarra, Bob Sutton, Katy Milkman and Amy Edmondson. I announce news webinars on LinkedIn. So, if you are interested, just follow me there.

RESEARCH

Most of my research tackles the question of how to better understand and navigate cooperative and competitive interactions. While my focus is on developing general insights, I am fond of the empirical contexts of my research. Most notably, (1) startups and tech companies, (2) family businesses, and (3) sports (e.g., Formula 1, soccer, and chess).
