Research

Groesser's main research interests include strategic management, business models, mental models and simulation. He focuses particularly on the use of dynamic models and frameworks in strategic management and organizational development for better decision making in a complex world. He shows that models and computer simulations play an important role in individual and group-based decision making. His works contribute to increased awareness on that topic.

His current research interests include the analysis of circular business models for the solar energy/electricity industry as well as studies in the area of value chain-related supply shortages of medicines.
