About

Hi, I'm Francie and I've been doing my doctorate at HHL Leipzig Graduate School of Management since spring 2021 with a focus on Intrepreneurial Resourcefulness. I am particularly interested in the diversity of the topic and the perspective from an individual and organizational level. The interdisciplinary nature of my topics has enabled me to gain a comprehensive insight into the early founding phase of start-ups and to understand their structures. An interdisciplinary understanding of topics was already relevant to me in my Bachelor's and Master's degree programs. Alongside my studies, I was able to gain experience at Lufthansa Technik AG and Accenture Strategy, among others. Accenture Strategy. I am fascinated by other cultures, which is why I lived in Miami, Paris and Amsterdam during and between my studies. In my private life, my passion for traveling. In my free time, I like to spend time in nature and doing sports.
