Magnus Hansson, Ph.D has in his primary research been focusing on closedown and downsizing, and in particular productivity effects during processes of closedown. In this research attention has been given to the development of a pattern of explanations to the Closedown effect – a productivity increase effect that occurs during the closedown process. In short, my research has been focusing on productivity effects during the process of closedown. The Closedown effect – a productivity increase effect that occurs during the process of closedown has been identified. Explanations as well as understanding to the reasons why this effect has been sought through the application of a broad set of methodologies including interviews, observations, Grounded Theory and surveys. A key theoretical contribution of my previous research is the identification of a range of concepts that form antecedent explanations to the Closedown effect’s occurrence. These antecedents are aggregated in themes: managerial actions, counter-institutional actions, conflict context, worker autonomy, perceived threat of job loss, collective action, economic and institutional reordering, and institutional restrictions. The following describes the influence of these aggregates and their temporal dynamics, in relationship to the Closedown effect. Magnus Hansson has also get
research interest in management accounting and the use of IT/ICT in various types of business processes. Magnus is a
member of Centre of Empirical Research on Organizational Control (CEROC). Magnus Hansson teaches various topics including
