Biography[edit]
Zhang was born in China and educated at the Northwest University, where she obtained a Bachelor of Science in 2004 and a Master of Philosophy in 2006. She earned her second master degree in industrial engineering ( ir.) in 2008 from Eindhoven University of Technology, and Ph.D. in Entrepreneurship and Innovation in 2013 from Eindhoven University of Technology and United Nations University-MERIT. Her Ph.D. focused on the entrepreneurship development in China from a multi-level approach.[6]
In addition, Zhang has been practicing Chinese Martial Arts (Tai Chi and Qi Gong) since her childhood, with the annual training[7] at Wudang Mountains, China. She also received five years of academic training on Traditional Chinese Medicine (acupuncture & moxa, and herbal medicine) and two years of Western Medicine at Shenzhou Open University of TCM, in Amsterdam, the Netherlands.
She worked as an assistant professor and the academic director of Erasmus-Leiden Master program of Chinese Economy and Business (2012 -2014), and an associate professor with tenure and associate dean for China business and relations (2014 to 2021) at Rotterdam School of Management.[8] From the end of 2021, she started working at Singularity Academy Switzerland as the president[9] and helping patients to improve wellbeing in Verus Bonifatius Klinik (Germany) as a Traditional Chinese Medicine specialist.[10]
Research[edit]
ZHANG's research spans entrepreneurship, the globalization-localization paradox, China's Belt and Road initiative, sharing value, fin-tech to tech-fin, wellness, happiness, business education, and sustainability.[11] Her research on the theme of entrepreneurship integrates Chinese entrepreneurship development from macro and micro level.[12] Her research investigated how China's entrepreneurship has been moving from a necessity-based to an opportunity-based & innovation-based society,[13] and unfolded how China’s higher education has played an important role in driving Chinese entrepreneurship via entrepreneurship education.[14] As one of the early scholars studying Huawei, her research reveals how Huawei developed their social capability to explore opportunities, keep creative and innovative, and how Huawei has used the Value-System Spheres & MBP-IP recycling framework[15] to maintain their high-speed of catching-up.[16]
Her research on education proposed a Hybrid Enterprise Model for education system to carry out a collective vision of the social value and to improve the wellbeing of stakeholders.[17] Her TEDxTalk proposed that in the transition from an inequality-oriented to an equality-oriented society, education has to provide an Equal Comprehensive Education including both knowledge and wisdom to develop the core of humanity and to acknowledging individual’s uniqueness by applying diversification and inclusiveness,[18] which develops the core of Singularity Academy.[19] Zhang’s research on sustainability and SDG proposed Panel Wellbeing Failure (PWF), Timeline Well-being Failure (TWF), and argues that the integration of PWF and TWF is the source of exhausting the earth.[20] Her latest study[21] on covid-19 pandemic argues that the core of humanity in terms of having a compassionate, sympathetic, and generous disposition are lost on the way (also in the education) of only chasing economic globalization but neglecting the importance of the migration of people, knowledge and wisdom dissemination, and environmental challenges, leading to selfishness, carelessness, and discriminative attitude and behaviour, which indirectly cause all sorts of human’s crisis including the loss of institutional trust and the paradox of globalization-localization.[22]
She won the “MOOC Award of Excellence” from SDG Academy and UNSDSN.[23] Her case on Ant Financial won the Case Centre Awards and Competitions (The case method community’s annual ‘Oscars’).[24] The media and managerial journals have published many of her opinions and studies such as at Bloomberg,[25][26] Financial Times, ChinaDaily,[27][28][29] People’s Daily, China Economics Net, Washington Post, China Policy Review (Formerly China Economic Report), Caixin,[30][31] EuroBiz, China Radio International, EUReporter,[32][33] NRC,[34] EFMD GlobalFocus,[35] Wirtschafts Woche,[36] and others.
Teaching[edit]
Zhang's teaching specialises in the areas of entrepreneurship, social innovation and sustainability. She has also published several case studies on these topics. She designed/taught the theme of Mind-Body integration.[37]
