Welcome

Who I Am

Hello, I’m Stefan. I am originally from Austria with Nordic roots, and I have been living in Asia since 2010. I am a researcher, educator, and consultant in the fields of education, business, society, and culture.

Have a look around and get in touch if you are interested in working together. I am looking forward to hearing from you!

What I Do

I work in research, education, and consulting, and I enjoy bridging the gap between academia and industry. My research and teaching focuses on higher education, education technology, organizational behavior, and shared value. I am active at and with several institutions and organizations in Asia and Europe.
