I mean, if there are people, working on the same issues. I would like to exchange feedback, experience, etc.

I am searching for people dealing with the same issues:
- customer orientation
- product quality
- customer perception of quality
- value chain efficiency.

For co-operation, discussions, etc.

You are right. But I get spammed anyway.

Hi Denis,

What is yours?

(continued)
Germany has got a pretty high level of education. English is also not a problem (as long as your professor speaks English).

Topics for your PhD? Well, if you want to match Russia with Germany...It can be international trade relations, politics (or maybe better not), differences in consumer preferences and culture, deltas in management style or anything else.

Which business area do you work in?
Where did you make the most experience?
What are your interests?

P.S: I speak Russian.

Hello Denis,

I am Olga and I am doing an "industrial PhD" in Germany/Netherlands. There are actuall 2 ways of doing a PhD here:

(1). you are enrolled at univeristy, attend some classes, assist your professor and at the same time research on your topic
(2). a "passive PhD", when you have an academic supervisor, who guides you through your research. You don't have to attend classes. The only point is that you must find time to meet your professor.

I am doing an option No. 2 - I am employed by a company and research on a topic for them. I meet my professor (I am enrolled at the university in The Netherlands) a couple of times a year and communicate with him via emails. So, I will have to deliver results to both university and a company. This can be an option for you as well because you do not have to be present all the time.

I am actually searching for people doing research in business and management: customer satisfaction, product quality and the stuff. Anybody here?

Hello.
I am laos new here - started my PhD in September. And I am not quite sure if this was the right decision. Sometimes I feel like I am doing nonsense. But as my friend says "If it was easy, everybody could have done it". So, it is cool to be a doctor and it brings some advantages but we have to deserve it.

Lets be strong!
