Distinguished Professor Emerita at Boise State University (USA), and a former Adjunct Professor at Aalborg University (Denmark), N.K. Napier teaches strategy and creativity, coaches executives and leads Boise State University's one-week Executive MBA residency to Vietnam...
…She first went to Hanoi in 1994, joining a project that helped to establish the country’s first international standard business school at the National Economics University. After the project, she taught periodically for the university and did research with numerous colleagues.
Because life is not just research and teaching, Napier reached out to leaders and managers in other formats. She co-created and hosted NPR local affiliate’s Idaho Business Matters, was a regular guest on KTVB Channel 7’s Noon News, wrote for Forbes Vietnam, and continues to write for blogs for http://Psychologytoday.com . In the last few years, she has received two of Vietnam’s top honors for foreigners, the Medal of Honor, for contributing to the advancement of education in the country, and the Medal of Friendship for helping to build relationships between the U.S. and Vietnam
After 35+ years in the academic and research world, N.K. Napier is embarking on something completely new: Fiction Writing, which offers her the joys and challenges of being a beginner again.
