Presentation

Wanjun Lei (Jim) is a PhD Fellow at the Department of Business Humanities and Law, Copenhagen Business School. Jim’s research aims to develop philosophy as a critical approach that conceptually engages with empirical or theoretical business problems, while traversing multiple discursive spheres to generate creative insights.

Empirically, his interests encompass post-bureaucratic thinking around entrepreneurship and leadership, theological motifs in organizational practices, and grand socio-economic challenges such as digitalization and sustainability.

Philosophically, his focus has predominantly been on French and German thinkers along the genealogy of poststructuralism and/or postmodernism, including Bataille, Barthes, Baudrillard, Deleuze, Derrida, Foucault, Luhmann, and Nietzsche.
