His Ph.D. thesis entitled Multi Criteria Decision Making (MCDM) was supervised by Egbert Kahle.Since 1998 he has been a Professor of Organizational Behavior at Vorarlberg University of Applied Sciences in Dornbirn, Austria. There he created a communication and collaboration study group, which he still leads today.
Wilms’ research focuses on Management Studies. He is of the opinion that management is a profession concerned with control in certain types of systems (enterprises and organizations). Therefore, he embeds Niklas Luhmann’s system theory within Management Studies.
He also engages in research covering Organizational Behavior and Dialogue.
