Verena Stingl

Verena was born Austrian, but moved to Denmark in 2015 to start a PhD in Project Management Studies and Behavioural Sciences at the Technical University of Denmark. This meant a massive turn-around in both her career and her academic focus. She holds master degrees as Chemical Engineer and in Environmental Risk Management, and has been working in and for various industries as project manager, consultant and Enterprise Risk Manager in the 7 years before returning to academia. Becoming curious about the sometimes odd behaviour of project decision-makers she dealt with in her last job, she has made this issue now her research focus.
