On Monday June 26th, 2023, we welcomed Prof. Dr. Paula Jarzabkowski as a guest lecture as part of the seminar series on “Sustainable Transformation and Cross Sector Collaboration”. Hosted by the Chair for Organization Studies the first, inaugural lecture on “Disaster Insurance Reimagined: Protection in a Time of Increasing Risk” took place at Von-Melle-Park 9.

Paula Jarzabkowski is a Professor of Strategic Management Management at University of Queensland and City, University of London, and Co-Editor of Strategic Organization. Her research focuses on strategy-as-practice in complex contexts, such as regulated firms, third sector organizations and financial services, particularly insurance and reinsurance. As an expert for insurance protection gaps, Paula talked about her forthcoming book on ‘Protection Gap Entities’ (PGEs), which are not-for-profit insurance mechanisms that attempt to address the crisis in disaster insurance.

We would like to thank Prof. Dr. Paula Jarzabkowski for a truly captivating lecture.
