Prof. Dr. Yevgen Bogodistov

Yevgen Bogodistov is a passionate researcher. He conducts research on the interface between Information Systems (e.g., Process Management, Process Innovation, Payments), Strategic Management (e.g., Dynamic (Managerial) Capabilities, IT Capability, Managerial Decision-Making)), and Organisational Behaviour (e.g., Burnout, Emotions in Organisations, Relational Models).
For instance, in his most recent projects, Yevgen investigated
- psychological distance and feelings of control associated with different means of payment,
- influence of emotions on payment process design,
- impact of fear and anger on managerial cognition, and
- congruence of relationships in teams and their impact on teams’ IT capability.
