Em seu depoimento sobre a participação como
"It was a very productive experience to teach in a prestigious program such as IMIM, held by the European Commission. The classes I could develop and some master thesis that I evaluated express accurately the real spirit of this course: the encounter of multiples visions on problems and solutions in operations management. Specially, I detach the wealth opportunity of approaching boundary themes in Quality Management and Supply Chain Management, such as green supply chain, productive cooperation networks, virtual enterprises, sustainability through value chains, and many others, and of discussing such topics with students from North and South America, Asia, East and West Europe: a cross-cultural experience with a multiplicity of local perspectives summing global strategies for contemporary dilemmas."
