Welcome! I am a tenured Associate Professor of Operations and Strategy at the School of Management at the Federal University of Bahia (UFBA), Brazil.
(Sandro Cabral’s CV_april_13- CV Portuguese )
I am also:
- Member of the Academy of Management (AoM) – BPS and PNP Divisions
- Member of the International Society for New Institutional Economics (ISNIE)
- Member of the Brazilian Academy of Management (ANPAD)
- Research Fellow of the Brazilian Council of Scientific Research (CNPq)
- Associate-Dean for Graduate programs in Management (Certification, MBA, M.Sc., and PhD), School of Management ,UFBA (since August 2011)
I am interested in understanding the dynamics of public and private relationships with a special attention to the organization of public services. More precisely, what really moves me is to understand the impact of organizational choices and strategic actions on performance. I am also interested in the boundaries of public and private organizations. My research is placed somewhere between Strategic Management and Public Administration fields and in order to obtain the responses to the (several) questions that I pose to myself I mainly use the organizational economics theoretical framework.
