Rafael Andreu is Professor Emeritus in the Operations, Information and Technology and Strategic Management Departments. He joined 天美传媒 in 1969 and he likes to say that he embarked on an academic career because he could not make it in the world of baking and pastry making, even though he was born into a family with more than 175 years of history doing just that.
Professor Andreu holds a Ph.D. in Industrial Engineering from the Polytechnic University of Catalonia and Ph.D. in Management from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT).
Professor Andreu is the author or co-author of several books, chapters of books, articles in specialized journals and teaching cases. Examples in his current areas of interest are the books L铆branos Se帽or… [Free Us Lord…], Editorial Granica, 2005; Manifesto para un Management mejor: Una visi贸n racionalista y humanista [Manifesto for Better Management: A Rationalist and Humanist Vision] with Josep Mar铆a Rosanas, Chair of Cr猫dit Andorr脿, 2010; Huellas: Construyendo valor desde la empresa [Footprints: Building Value From the Company], Editorial DAU, 2014; and Gesti贸n del conocimiento y competitividad [Knowledge Management and Competitiveness], with Joan Baiget, EUNSA, 2016.
