Brigitte de Graaff is an Assistant Professor in Accounting at the School of Business and Economics (SBE) at the Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam. She is also the program director of the CMA-program at SBE Executive Education.

My research primarily focuses on the internal changes and impacts companies face when moving towards more sustainable business management. I focus on how integrated thinking relates to sustainable business management, what the impact of ESG-related external reporting requirements is on companies and how it materializes in the organization and operations, from a management control perspective. besides this, I have a special interest in the legal and governance implications from suatinability efforts.

Special research interests: integrated thinking, integrated reporting, sustainable business management, CSRD/CSDDD, ESG governance and regulatory and criminal enforcement related to ESG.
