CSC People - Associate Professor Robin Teigland, Associate Researcher
Associate Professor, and Associate Researcher at the Center for Strategy and Competitiveness.
Member of the core faculty of the new full-time MBA program at the Stockholm School of Economics (SSE).
Prior to completing her doctoral thesis, Knowledge Networking: Structure and Performance in Networks of Practice, at the Institute of International Business at SSE, Associate Professor Teigland worked as a consultant for McKinsey & Company, Inc. in Stockholm. Additionally, she holds a B.A. in Economics from Stanford University, an M.B.A. from The Wharton School, and an M.A. in International Studies from the University of Pennsylvania.
Prof. Teigland’s research interests include areas such as the creation and diffusion of knowledge in intra- and inter-organizational networks of practice and the impact of knowledge flows through these networks on a firm’s competitive advantage. The focus of her current research is within the biotechnology industry in which she is investigating the relationship between social networks and performance at various levels. This research includes projects such as a study of the emergence of Sweden’s stem cell industry and a study of the development of the Uppsala Biotech Cluster (together with CIND at Uppsala University, www.cind.se). Additionally, she is working with an international team of IT researchers investigating how information and communication technologies support knowledge flows and improved productivity within organizations.
Prof. Teigland's teaching interests parallel her research interests as she is responsible for teaching “The Uppsala Biotech Cluster”, one of three live cases that the SSE MBA program offers its students. Additionally, Prof. Teigland lectures and teaches a variety of courses on social networks and social capital, knowledge management, and strategy at the undergraduate, graduate, and executive levels.
A copy of her thesis, Knowledge Networking: Structure and Performance in Networks of Practice, as a PDF can be downloaded here.
