Fields of Research
My research focuses on issues related to the long-term relationships between firms and their customers (CRM). Specifically, I am interested in exploring the dynamics and eventually the termination of such relationships (i.e., defection decisions). I explore the role of social systems and purchase-related variables (e.g., multiple payments) as antecedents of defection, and identify the conditions under which defection is most likely to occur.
