معرفی
Prof. Dr. Bettina Binder is a Professor of Technical Business Administration and Controlling at Hochschule Pforzheim in the Business & Law faculty. She maintains an office in room T1.3.28 and holds regular colloquium sessions on Wednesdays from 11:30-13:00. Her research spans two primary interconnected domains: controlling methodologies and gender diversity in corporate leadership.
Professor Binder's research interests focus on international and behavioral controlling, process-oriented performance measurement systems, and the integration of digital technologies into traditional controlling functions. A significant portion of her work examines gender representation on corporate boards, analyzing the relationship between women's quota and company performance across different cultural contexts including Germany, the European Union, United States, and Japan. Her recent publications demonstrate increasing emphasis on digital transformation in controlling, with applications of process mining, digital twins, and advanced dashboard reporting.
Analysis of Professor Binder's publication trends reveals a consistent research trajectory since the late 1990s with evolving focus areas. Early work centered on process-oriented performance measurement in specific industries like telecommunications. More recently, she has developed two parallel research streams: digital transformation in controlling and gender diversity in corporate leadership. Her publications often bridge theoretical frameworks with practical applications, featuring case studies from major companies like Bosch. The integration of data analytics and digital tools into traditional controlling functions represents her most current research direction.
Professor Binder maintains active research collaborations both within academia and with industry partners. Her work with Bosch Group on innovative controlling instruments demonstrates practical applications of her research. She regularly presents at international conferences including the EuroMed Academy of Business. While specific student supervision details aren't provided, her numerous co-authored publications suggest she works with research collaborators who may include advanced students. Her research on gender diversity has particular relevance for students interested in corporate governance and diversity issues.
Professor Binder has established research connections with organizations across multiple sectors. Her work with DAX companies provides insights into German corporate practices, while her cross-cultural studies demonstrate international perspective. The automotive industry (particularly through Bosch) represents a significant application area for her controlling research, and her gender diversity studies span multiple national contexts including Germany, other European countries, the United States, and Japan.
