“I first got to know Günther Kainz in my role as Professor of Organization and Management at the University of Vienna when he presented his PhD studies in research seminars. In addition, he participated at the economics and management of networks conference (EMNet 2015) in Agadir, which I organized. Furthermore, Mr. Kainz was teaching courses in organization and international management at the University of Vienna. Based on this personal experience, I can say that he is an excellent presenter and very motivated teacher.

Moreover, Mr. Kainz is an excellent researcher. Specifically, he successfully applies different views on new research questions by focusing on interdisciplinary perspectives. He has excellent technical and analytical abilities and has shown exceptional statistical abilities.” Prof. Dr. Josef Windsperger

“I know Mr. Günther Kainz since 2009, first as my study-colleague and then as a work-colleague at the University of Vienna.

That allowed me to get to know Mr. Kainz as a person with a thorough knowledge of organisational science and a particular interest in behavioural aspects of organisational functioning. In our frequent interactions on the issues related both to the mutually attended courses and to our scientific research he always demonstrated highly professional approach, timely delivering information and coming with helpful notes and explanations. His contributions were always up-to-date, concise and precise.

I also know Günther as a person with strong communication skills and a positive attitude when dealing with his superiors, peers and students. He is diligent and friendly in both oral and written communication, making it a pleasure to work with him. He is a good team player, able to listen, put the opinions together and contribute to the discussion with his own ideas and suggestions.

He demands a great deal of himself, being very orderly and at the same time having an innovative mindset and thinking "outside of the box".” Mag. Oksana Galak, PhD
