Michael is the Programme Lead of International Management and a design research fellow in the creative economy with experience in applying design-led mapping and modelling methods as part of strategic and participatory engagement in regional, sectoral and sustainable development. His research centres on making the effects, viability and value of creative work more explicit within complex collaborative contexts. By combining principles of actor-network theory with qualitative modes of analysis, Michael develops visual mapping methods to support reflexive discourse on the value of creative enterprise and innovation.
