Senior lecturer, Department of Global Value Chains and Trade, Lincoln University, New Zealand As an applied researcher, I specialise in exploring the multifaceted realm of stakeholder ecosystem relationships, with a central aim of fostering distributive societies. My investigations cover all three sectors - not-for-profit, public, and private - and are underpinned by considering futures/strategic foresight, stakeholder-centric value creation and community embeddedness. Through collaborative partnerships with individuals and institutions, I embark on a journey to handle real-world challenges and issues. This collaborative approach catalyses meaningful change, bridging the gap between academia and industry to advance scholarship, research, and practical solutions. I aspire to contribute to shaping distributive societies by exploring the convergence of stakeholder ecosystem relationships. As an educator, I remain dedicated to staying at the forefront of industry knowledge, cultivating invaluable industry connections and actively contributing to the community, underscoring my commitment to the cause of distributive societies.
