معرفی
Dr Marek Szwejczewski serves as Senior Lecturer in Operations Management and Research Development Director for the Operations Management and Decision Sciences group at the University of Sheffield Management School. His academic work focuses on bridging theoretical operations research with practical manufacturing and supply chain applications, particularly in high-technology sectors and service environments.
His research interests span operations strategy, supply chain innovation, and sustainable manufacturing systems, with recent emphasis on bootlegging phenomena in R&D departments, circular economy implementation, and qualitative methodologies for supply chain research. Key contributions include developing frameworks for continuous improvement program management, strategic manufacturing network configuration, and innovation capability building in service contexts.
Analysis of his publication trajectory reveals increasing focus on sustainability-driven operations since 2015, with growing integration of circular economy principles into supply chain models. His methodological approach combines rigorous qualitative techniques like repertory grid analysis with traditional operations management frameworks, particularly evident in recent work on consumer needs assessment and service innovation.
Dr Szwejczewski actively supervises doctoral research in Circular Economy & Sustainable Supply Chain, currently guiding PhD candidates Fasha and Johanis. He contributes to the Supply Chain, Operations and Logistics Applied Research Centre, fostering collaborative projects between academia and industry practitioners.
