Professor Emerita Penelope Frow
After completing MBA and PhD degrees at Cranfield University, UK, Pennie taught on many Master's and Executive short courses at Cranfield. Her research has focused on studying aspects of managing customer relationships. She has worked extensively with service and professional service firms, especially investigating issues related to strategic development of customer relationships. She has published in academic and practitioner journals including theJournal of Marketing, Journal of the Academy of Marketing Science, European Journal of Marketing, Journal of Business Research, Industrial Marketing Managementand theJournal of Marketing Management, as well as writing a number of teaching case studies. She is the Lead Chief Investigator of an ARC funded health care research project, investigating co-creation practices in a new hospital context.
My research program is in the field of Marketing Management and Strategy. This work is focused on several closely related research areas within this field, including: co-creation, services marketing, relationship marketing, internal marketing, customer relationship management, customer value and value proposition development. I have a special interest in researching the services sector and especially healthcare. Currently I am leading a team of researchers investigating value co-creation within a complex health system. This work includes four longitudinal studies, looking at different aspects of patient and staff behaviours and their impact on healthcare performance outcomes. Another major project involves investigating the impact of customer value propositions, exploring both firm and customer outcomes.
