Om mig
Tidigare: Professor emeritus Mälardalens högskola, Professor i företagsekonomi Mälardalens högskola, Gästprofessor i Japan och i Tysklad, Adjungerad professor Uppsala Universitet, VD IPF vid Uppsala Universitet, Adjungerad professor Mälardalens högskola, Docent Stockholms Universitet, Ek.dr. Stockholms Universitet.
Mitt forskningsintresse genom åren har varit att förstå och bidra med kunskap om icke materiella resursers (tex kompetens, hälsa, arbetsmiljö) betydelse för såväl privata som offentliga organisationers värdeskapande. Som ett led i att utveckla kunskap inom området har jag föreslagit olika typer av såväl analytiska ramverk som normativa styrmodeller. Min forskning bygger vidare på och är samtidigt kritisk mot den traditionella ekonomistyrningens alltför snäva perspektiv. Begrepp som jag har behandlat i olika projekt och publikationer har tex varit human resource costing and accounting, balanced scorecards, intellectuel capital, health statements, performance management, integrated reporting and management och social sustainability. I min forskning har jag förutom svenska samarbetspartners även arbetet ihop med kollegor från många europeiska länder, Japan, Australien och USA.
