Personal profile

Research interests

My focus is on corporate entrepreneurship, social and women entrepreneurship, and on the more psychological aspects. In my position as endowed professor of ‘Sustainable employability of entrepreneurs in the Netherlands’ the research focuses on increasing knowledge and understanding of critical events in the personal and working lives of entrepreneurs, potential causes of dropout and possible preventive interventions. The chair is established by Movir, income insurer for independent entrepreneurs.
