Elke Schüßler

Elke Schüßler is Professor of Business Administration, in particular Entrepreneurship at Leuphana University Lüneburg. She studies dynamics of organizational and institutional change with a focus on the development of sustainable forms of work and organizing. She is particularly interested in inter-organizational contexts like organizational fields, global supply chains, regional clusters or digital platforms and the ways in which institutional entrepreneurs use interaction spaces like field-configuring events to challenge established norms and shape new practices. She is also interested in various forms of academic activism and the potential contribution of management scholarship in a world increasingly disrupted by crises.
