Something to think about... |
“Paradigms
power perception and perceptions power emotions. Most emotions are responses to perception –
what you think is true about a given situation. If your perception is false, then your
emotional response to it will be false too.
So check your perceptions, and beyond that check the truthfulness of
your paradigms – what you believe.
Just because you believe something firmly doesn’t make it true. Be willing to reexamine what you
believe.” Wm. Paul Young “The Shack,”
p.197 |

I received my B.S. degree in
engineering from Century University, and my M.B.A. from Colorado State University.
Returning to academia from successful business experiences, I earned my Ph.D.
in 1998 from Case Western Reserve University. My expertise is
Entrepreneurship and Small Business within a Global and Multi-National
context. This required integrating expertise in several disciplines,
including strategy, human resource management, international business,
economics, and statistics. I have considerable experience in new venture
creation and business acquisition, as well as substantial international experience.
These experiences are an integral part of my teaching, providing a
"real-life" orientation to my teaching methods. I emphasize
application rather than memorization, and incorporate an array of teaching
methods and opportunities for learning and skill development. I am based in
the Quad Cities, and teach a variety of courses within the management field.
I am actively involved in researching the factors that contribute to success
in emerging organizations, and am passionately global in my academic and
private life. I an active member in numerous professional and academic
associations, including the Academy of Management, the United States
Association for Small Business and Entrepreneurship, the Academy of
International Business, the International Council for Small Business, Beta
Gamma Sigma, and the Illinois Quad Cities Chamber of Commerce. I am on the
editorial board for the International Entrepreneurship and Management
Journal, and serve as an editorial reviewer for 4 other management journals
and 5 book publishers, keeping me abreast of current developments in the
field. |
