Michelle is undertaking her PhD studies on Responsible Scaling under the supervision of Prof. Esther Tippmann. Michelle’s project seeks to advance understandings of responsible and sustainable scaling by attending to the management of internal transformations. Scaling has been described as a fast-paced and aggressive process, provoking significant internal transformations in structures, processes, systems, and resources. While the competitive advantages and positive economic outcomes of scaling are enticing, the possible negative repercussions of scaling are often neglected. This project seeks to understand how these different aspects of scaling can be balanced and improve the longevity of the scaling process and associated rewards. The insights of this study will inform recommendations for scaling firm leaders and policy makers. Michelle is recipient of the University of Galway’s Hardiman PhD scholarship.
