Interdisciplinary Research Group Family Firms
Welcome! We are the Interdisciplinary Research Group Family Firms of the University of Mannheim
We build bridges that reach the fields of Business Studies, Sociology, Psychology, Information Systems, and Equality & Intercultural Studies. We operate a supercomputer. With quantitative, qualitative, positivist, and inductive approaches we explore the fields of:
- AI & Supercomputing for Sustainability,
- Artificial Intelligence & Human Organizations,
- Diversity, Equality, and Intercultural Management,
- Personality & Well-being, Values, Brands, & Organizations, and
- Family Firms & Entrepreneurship.
We stand for openness, transdisciplinarity, and international scholarly exchange. Organization & the Carnegie School (HA Simon, J March, A Kieser, etc.) is the foundation of our research. We cultivate these roots through active exchange with SCANCOR at Stanford University and Havard University. We hope to spark your curiosity with our research and give you a glimpse into the team behind it. Feel free to explore!
