I enjoy lecturing on a variety of subjects such as networks, organizational change, strategy, and knowledge management at the undergraduate, graduate, and executive levels. I am also proficient at using and teaching social network analysis. Recently I have been experimenting with the use of virtual worlds such as Second Life together with Steve Mahaley, the Director of Learning Technology at Duke CE.
Some of my more recent talks include the below. These talks and others can be found on slideshare at www.slideshare.net/eteigland/slideshows. Feel free to download them for your own purposes.

As an SSE faculty member during the past four years, I have primarily taught live cases and projects as part of SSE's MBALive component in the executive and full-time MBA programs. (Click here for an article in Swedish on MBALive and here for an article on SSE MBA in the Financial Times.) This past fall, I was responsible for the Master Case in which I led five teams of full-time MBA students working on strategic issues for the Executive Management Team of Atlas Copco. In addition, I am currently running the course, Leading Organizational Change, for the EMBA program at IFL with my SSE colleague, Dr. Andrew Schenkel.
During the spring of 2005 I taught “The Uppsala Biotech Cluster”, and participating firms in this live case included Uppsala BIO-X, Svanova AB, QUIAtech AB, Resistentia AB, Pharmacia Diagnostics, and GE Amersham. During this course, the MBA students visited the University of California San Diego and the San Diego biotech cluster for one week as well as organized together with SwedenBIO a symposium on the competitiveness of the Nordic region in biotechnology. The symposium was well attended by the public and hosted speakers such as Mads Øvlisen, Chairman of Novo Nordisk and Lego; Mats Pettersson, CEO of Biovitrum AB; and Dr. Christian Ketels of the Institute of Strategy and Competitiveness at Harvard Business School.

Of late I have been extremely interested in exploring the emerging educational possibilities through virtual worlds. Much of this collaboration has been in cooperation with Steve Mahaley at Duke CE and together we have run several exercises in Second Life. Here is an overview of this work.
Additionally, I have been involved in writing a few teaching cases:
