Professor Groen has served as a management consultant in global business management, human resource management and cross-cultural effectiveness for nearly 30 years. In this capacity, he has worked with numerous well known multinational corporations, such as Freddie Mac, IBM, Marriott, MCI Worldcom, Philips, Siemens, and Westinghouse. In 2006, Professor Groen co-authored a book, Titans of Saturn, with Dr. Charles Hampden-Turner. In their work, based on a study co-sponsored by NASA, the authors applied the concept of dilemma reconciliation to provide a unique insight into the highly successful international Cassini-Huygens space science mission to Saturn. Professor Groen has traveled to over 45 countries and is fluent in Dutch, English, and German as well as conversant in French. He comes to SIS after serving as an adjunct professor at American University's Kogod School of Business.
