Über Philip Yang
Ich wurde in Chengdu (China) geboren und bin in Deutschland aufgewachsen. In Hannover und Bristol habe ich Volks- und Betriebswirtschaftslehre studiert und an der Leibniz Universität Hannover in Arbeitsökonomie promoviert. Seit Oktober 2023 arbeite ich als Professor für Sustainable Human Resource Management and Leadership an der Universität Paderborn.
Mir ist es ein großes Anliegen, meine wissenschaftliche Kompetenz in die Praxis einzubringen. Aus diesem Grund sind mir Kooperationen mit Unternehmen sehr wichtig. Unter anderem habe ich bereits als Projektleiter in Kooperationen mit der Dr. Ing. h.c. F. Porsche AG, der Daimler AG car2go, der Robert Bosch Start-up GmbH zu Themen wie Agilität, Innovation und Performance Feedback gearbeitet.

Forschung und Lehre
Mein Forschungsansatz ist konzeptionell-empirisch. Ich erweitere und kombiniere bestehende Theorien und teste die daraus abgeleiteten Hypothesen quantitativ-empirisch mit Daten auf Unternehmensebene (Thomson Reuters, Orbis), Daten auf Individualebene (BoardEx, GSOEP, Sportdaten, Facebook), oder einer Kombination aus beiden. Ich forsche gerne in Teams, die nicht nur die nationalen, sondern auch die diszipliären Grenzen überschreiten.
Meine Forschungsschwerpunkte sind dabei:
Sustainable HRM & Leadership
Transformation of Work and Sustainable Use of Human Resources
Responsible Leadership & Ethical Human Relations
Green HRM & Leadership
Meine Lehrphilosophie spiegelt das Leitbild für Studium und Lehre der Universität Paderborn in seiner Idee einer forschungsnahen, vielfältigen, aktivierenden, praxisnahen und kompetenzorientierten Lehre wider. Unser Lehrstuhl bietet verschiedene Module sowohl im Bachelor, als auch im Master an:
Sustainable Leadership (10 ECTS)
Sustainable Behavior in Organizations (5 ECTS)
Evidence-Based HRM & Leadership (5 ECTS)
Empirical Studies in SHRM & Leadership (5 ECTS)
