Professor Robert Chia
He received his PhD in Organizational Analysis from the University of Lancaster. He is the author/editor of six books including, Strategy-in-Practices: A Process-Practices Perspective on Strategy-Making, (Cambridge University Press, with D. MacKay, forthcoming) and Strategy without Design (Cambridge University Press, with R. Holt 2009) and has published extensively in the major organization and management journals. His research is fundamentally underpinned by a process-philosophical worldview which is used to interrogate research issues such as organizational becoming; strategic thinking and strategy-making;, peripheral awareness, foresight and organizational leadership; decisions and unintended consequences; the educational role of university business schools; and the significance of contrasting East-West mentalities and their implications for business practice. Prior to entering academia Robert worked for seventeen years in shipbuilding, aircraft engineering and held senior management positions in manufacturing and human resources for a large multinational corporation based in Singapore.
