Personal Profile:
Stuart is a Senior Lecturer within the School of Business, Enterprise and Management. Prior to this current position he held various teaching/research and management posts in a number of other UK university business schools and management centres. Before pursuing a career in higher education, he gained considerable business and management experience working within both multinational corporations and the SME sector.
His main teaching and research interests are focussed upon the development of strategic management and marketing processes/practices, and the facilitation of management learning. A central theme underpinning these areas of interest is the need for organisations, and their managers, to create value in pursuit of sustainable competitiveness. He is a co-founder of the Scottish Forum for Family Business Research, based within the university, established to support research and enterprise development activities focussed upon promoting growth and business innovation in Scotland’s family enterprises and their local/regional communities. The management and operational practices adopted by family orientated businesses is a current area of research interest, particularly in respect to their approach to strategy formulation and ongoing development.
