It has excellent access to practice through different platforms, i.e., the Hilti Lab for Integrated Performance Management and the Performance Management Academy. We invite you to work on research questions like: How can organizations steer behavior and employee performance in a post-disciplinary age? How do organizations account and control for topics like “impact”, “sustainability,” or other ideas that are difficult to measure?
