Dr Barbara Myers

Dr Barbara Myers is an Associate Professor and teaches undergraduate and postgraduate courses in Management, HRM, Global Mobility and Careers for AUT’s Department of Management. Barbara has held a number of roles at the University including Associate Dean Academic, Head of Department and Senior Lecturer.

Barbara’s research is about work (paid and unpaid) and careers in different contexts (e.g. global mobility, self-initiated expatriation (SIE), organisations and universities) drawing on diverse lenses e.g. (gender, life-course) and predominantly qualitative methodologies and frameworks. An inter-disciplinary approach best informs the research she conducts around the nexus of work and life. Barbara is on two editorial boards and has published in a range of journals including the Journal of World Business, Journal of Global Mobility, Personnel Review, Gender, Work and Organization, International Perspectives on Equality and Diversity, Career Development International and Studies in Higher Education. Barbara also reviews for a wide range of respected journals and conferences at an international and national level.

Barbara has an interest in critical, feminist and narrative methodologies not just as a researcher but also as a teacher in a range of courses and programmes that she teaches and supervises on at undergraduate and postgraduate level. There she also draws on personal and organisational story telling to support wider business and commercial strategy, incorporating history and change into the way we look at a changing world of work and how we reflect on and consider career possibilities and change.
