PhD Course in Theory Building

Welcome to the 2023 - 11th - edition of the TBRP PhD course on: "THE PROCESS OF THEORIZING AND THEORY BUILDING IN MANAGEMENT RESEARCH".

  • "I wish I had this course one year ago" or "I wish I had this course two years ago" - these are examples of instant responses we receive from our participants when we ask them to reflect on the course!!!
  • "I have often thought about the theory building course. Today, I am revisiting the literature. The course had a great impact on my project as I have used Glaser’s approach to grounded theory to make sense of my data. It was a scary process and it costs a lot of hours to go through the process. However, I am very pleased with the result. Even a year after the course, it is still very present here in my office" (Anne Klitgaard, PhD candidate, Danish Building Research Institute, Denmark) - A year after the course: a sustainable, long-term impact!!!
