My research interests lie at the intersection of organization, identity and entrepreneurship theories. I am particularly interested in processes of organizational identity emergence, the agentic and organic ways that organizational identities are maintained and changed and whether/how identities and other cognitive filters influence entrepreneurial processes. Current projects examine:
The change or maintenance of an identity ascribed to a category of similar firms in the face of nascent forms of competition
The influences that effectual approaches to entrepreneurship have on new technologies
The possibility that an organization's identity can be "resurrected" after long periods of dormancy
