    Welcome to the ENT Community Discussion! We're so glad you are here. I hope that this online community will be a valuable resource to all ENT members as you begin to connect, communicate and collaborate with your colleagues here.

    When you visit the community for the first time, please take a moment to introduce yourself. It's a great way to practice making your first post to the community! Share your name, where you're from, your research or teaching interests, and why you belong to the ENT division.

    I'll start by introducing myself! My name is Lou Marino and I currently teach Entrepreneurship and Strategic Management at the University of Alabama (Roll Tide!). I have been a member of the Division for twenty years. The thing I love the most about our division is our culture and the fantastic and diverse group of people we have as our members. I believe we have the most supportive and developmental culture in all of AOM that is made possible by the helpful and cooperative attitudes of our members.

    Now it's your turn! Reply to this message now and start getting to know your fellow ENT members.

    Have other questions? Please start your own Discussion post with a distinct subject line, and our knowledgeable members and volunteers will help you to find the answers you need!

    Thanks for joining the conversation!

    Thank you, Louis,

    I'm new to the ENT Community and AOM. I'm a doctoral student at Worcester Polytechnic Institute. My academic work is on founder identity and entrepreneurial decision-making in tech ventures. It's an Entrepreneurship degree that mixes entrepreneurship, marketing, and psychology. On a related note, I was quite happy to see the post about the new open access Entrepreneurial Cognition book from Shepherd and Patzelt. Many thanks to them for all their contributions to the field. 

    I'm working on my PhD after many years as a tech marketing exec. I started teaching the grad Digital Marketing course at WPI about 10 years ago and fell in love with teaching. My colleagues then talked me into my PhD and turns out I love academic research, as well. So I'm a bit of a workaholic at the moment running my tech marketing agency, getting my PhD full-time, and teaching 4-5 courses a year part-time :-)

    Looking forward to meeting more of you on the discussion board.

    Shari

    My name is Pedro T. de Oliveira, I am a postdoctoral fellow at the University of Missouri-Kansas City. I currently teach Creating the Enterprise (Capstone course for Entrepreneurship Undergrad), and New Product Development. I have been a member of the Division for over a year and I couldn't agree more with Sharon that the Entrepreneurship Division rocks! It was clear to me during the last AOM in Atlanta.

    My research interests are EO e New Product Development, and I use AI, Machine Learning, Big data, and coding to answer relevant questions in the entrepreneurship literature.

    Hi all,

    My name is Chihmao Hsieh.  After stops as Entrepreneurship/Management faculty at the University of Missouri-Rolla (4 years), the University of Amsterdam (tenured at the end of a 5 year stint), Yonsei University (3 years), I'm now a Research Professor and Founding Director of the Center for Global Entrepreneurship at SUNY Stonybrook's Korea campus just outside of Seoul.

    I was born, raised and schooled (aside from the PhD) in Michigan (USA).

    My research looks at a wide variety of topics, but I think my work generally classifies into the cognition and economics of entrepreneurship.  My most recent publications expand on Lazear's Jack-of-all-trades theory -- one examines the effects of sequential versus parallel experience in business functions, on the likelihood of entrepreneurial entry; and another investigates whether *greater* risk aversity might lead to *greater* likelihood of entrepreneurial entry via greater investment in balanced skills.

    Glad to hang out and try to contribute here in this forum, -chihmao.

    Greetings Esteemed Colleagues!


    My name is Mike Lerman and I am a third year doctoral student at the University of Tennessee. I am interested in how entrepreneurs appraise stress, and the implications of those appraisals on affect and behavior. I am interested in pursuing methods such as: experience sampling, daily diary, and stress incident response. 


    Thanks for the opportunity to introduce myself; this is a great division, and I look forward to continuing the scholarly discourse.


    Have a Great Day,


    Mike

    Hi,
    My name is Arif Mahmood. I am a new member here.
    I am a final year PhD candidate at Hong Kong Baptist University. My research area is 'Entrepreneurship in the Informal Economy', which I guess is getting more attentions recently. I collect the data from Bangladesh, since I am originally from there and have access to the primary data source there.  Currently, I am working with Professor Xu Huang and Dr. Michael Young. I am here, because I think, this is the place, where entrepreneurship scholars belong to. Since, I am hoping to enter the academia soon, I think, it is the best choice to enter their community and get to know about them. 
    Looking forward to meet more people in the discussion board and in coming academy meeting.

    Best regards
