By taking the perspectives of recombination and the demand view, Stephen studies how firms creatively innovate. More specifically, he researches the process of how organizations adapt stories from one medium to another (e.g. book to movie adaptations). Before INSEAD, Stephen led a non-profit filmmaking and screenwriting organization, published on labor and political economy at multiple policy think-tanks in Washington D.C., and completed a Master in Public Policy at the Harvard Kennedy School, where he researched topics on labor & disability, technology, and political economy in collaborations with scholars at MIT Sloan and the Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development.
