Developing Intuition and Building Teams: Martin Jung

摘要

I started my career in research as a chemist. I earned a PhD in polymer chemistry at the Eindhoven University of Technology in the Netherlands, and I worked for three years in research on polymer chemistry. Then I was offered a position as assistant to a board member. I entered a totally different world-a world of corporate steering, strategy, and communications. After that, I worked in marketing and sales in Hong Kong for a commodity business, then came back to Europe to hold a larger responsibility for an intermediaries business with a large variety of business models. I am now department head for research of structural materials, with responsibility not only to shape the research but also to help guide product development in the sector.
