## Bio
My expertise lies in corporate sustainability, ESG, and institutional analysis. With a training in organization theory, I had a PhD in Management from IESE Business School in Spain and a Bachelor's in Business Administration (Information Systems) from University of Hong Kong.

## Major Publications

My research falls into two broad themes. In the first research stream (papers 3-5), I follow an “outside-in” perspective, examining external factors that surround business corporations and employing an institutional theory lens to understand the underlying drivers, mechanisms, andimpacts of corporate sustainability. In my second research stream (papers 1-2), I take an “inside-out” perspective, researching internal factors from within business corporations to understand their impacts on the relevant stakeholders and the broader society.

## For Visiting students & PhD applicants
#### PhD Admission at HKU Business School
I regularly receive emails soliciting my interest in hiring PhD students. In case you don't know, PhD admission decisions in our area are committee-based. I am not currently involved in the PhD committee.
I regularly receive emails soliciting my interest in hiring PhD students, based on the misperception that individual faculty members have independent funding for PhD admissions. However, this is not true in our school. PhD admission decisions in our area are committee-based. However, if you are already a doctoral student interested in ESG and institutional analysis, there might be a visiting opportunity.

#### My style as a PhD adviser
My goal is to help you become an independent and productive scholar. I am not a micro manager and will not impose an structure unless you explicitly ask for it. I tend to separate work and life as much as I can. It is unlikely that you will receive a message from me on holidays and weekends.
My goal is to help you become an independent and productive scholar. I am not a micro-manager and will not impose a structure unless you explicitly ask for it. I tend to separate work and life as much as I can. It is unlikely that you will receive a message from me on holidays and weekends.

In general, I am responsive. In return, I also expect you to be responsive. You don't have to agree with me all the time, but you are not advised to repeatedly ignore my suggestions without a good explanation. This principle applies to responding to reviewers.

I am generally supportive, but you should really take the initiative to communicate your concerns in a timely manner. I am on your side when you need support.

#### My intellectual style
As a management scholar, I appreciate empirical rigor and clever causal identification, but I deeply care about theoretical novelty and, more often than not, am excited by deep ideas. I value logical clarity and theoretical sophistication and refuse to believe that there is a trade off between the two.

#### Why PhD in Management?
1. You will NOT become a CEO of a large multinational firm after doing a PhD in management. In fact, doing this will most likely kill your chance to be a CEO. An imperfect but useful analogy is that a management scholar is to a manager as a football game analyst is to a footballer.

2. Management research treats managerial phenomena as if they can be scientifically analyzed and generalized and develop abstract theories to describe complex managerial issues in simple ways. Sometimes certain scholars go too far in developing theories on phenomenon that few people care about. Sometimes certain scholars are not being careful in developing explanations that are logically coherent and scientifically rigorous. Management research must balance between academic rigor and practical relevance.
