Carl-Philip Ahlbom
In 2015, I got the chance to embark on a Ph.D. I was advised by the same prof Jens Nordfält, together with prof Dhruv Grewal and prof Anne L. Roggeveen at Babson College, and prof Sara Rosengren at SSE. All fantastic scholars and mentors, especially Dhruv, who really took a huge interest and spent a lot of time mentoring me.
My Ph.D. dissertation was on how technologies can be used in (physical) retail settings to impact shopper behaviors. I argue that technologies can fundamentally change the borders between what is physical and digital and that the physical store is not dead – quite the opposite. With the right use of in-store technologies, the physical store can now provide more value than ever before. The dissertation, which was successfully defended in March 2019, has been awarded an honorary mention at the 2019 John A. Howard/AMA Doctoral Dissertation Award, been a finalist for the International Marketing Trends Congress Best Thesis Award, and had one dissertation-based article that was a finalist for the 2018 Marketing Science Institute/H. Paul Root Award as well as runner-up for the 2019 Don Lehmann Award for best dissertation-based article.
As I faced graduation, I felt that I wanted to have enough time to focus on my ongoing research projects. As such, I looked far and wide for a post-doc that would allow me to focus on my research for a few more years before I embark in a regular faculty position. After a few Skype calls and a couple of campus visits, the wonderful people at the University of Bath’s School of Management offered me a position as a “Prize Fellow.” My lovely head of division always calls it a “Post-Doc on steroids” – and it really is a great position. I am surrounded by fantastic colleagues and students, and I get the chance to focus on my research. By now, I have published in both the Journal of Marketing and Journal of Marketing Research.
