Research Statement

My research interests include product innovation, new product development, and supply chain management. For example, my research in product innovation investigates what types of innovations are most likely to displace incumbents, and what competencies incumbents need to thwart such displacement and instead continue to grow. In the area of new product development a research pursuit is to examine the degree to which a firm should pursue modular design. And in supply chain management some of my research involves looking at ways firms can most cost effectively pursue make-to-order production in conjunction with make-to-stock manufacturing.
