Research interests

His work reflects the classic strategy approach , but recognizes the reality-generating nature of decision-making and action processes. According to his description, change processes run in four distinguishable steps (development of concerns, development of understanding and recognition of the problem in the relevant public, planning and action, stabilizing the results), but at the same time he describes the incremental nature and the adaptation of the organizational environment of inside out.
