Welcome to our latest podcast, where we spotlight trailblazing women who are driving positive change in traditionally male-dominated industries. In this session, we speak to a highly regarded academic, Dr. Gabriela Gutierrez-Huerter O, who holds the position of Lecturer in International Management at King’s Business School and is recognised as a Fellow of The Higher Education Academy.
Having earned her PhD from the University of Nottingham, her professional focus lies in the confluence of international business, corporate social responsibility, and comparative institutional analysis.
Within the academic realm, Gabriela lectures on Corporate Social Responsibility and Business Ethics and Sustainability at the Undergraduate level, showcasing her dedication to shaping the next generation of business leaders. Her scholarly contributions have been acknowledged through publications in esteemed journals such as the Journal of International Business Studies and Research in Global Strategic Management.
Gabriela’s research is characterised by a threefold focus: the cross-national transfer and translation of organisational practices within multi-national enterprises, exploration of modern slavery and Business and Human Rights, and the intricate relationship between sustainability and Business Schools. Notably, she is an active member of OS4Future, a movement uniting organisation and management scientists committed to catalysing action on climate change through exemplary practices in research, teaching, and impact.
During this episode, we discuss Gabriela’s efforts in addressing modern slavery, with a specific focus on the construction industry, and delve into her research regarding the impact of modern slavery on businesses in this sector. Additionally, we explore the influence of her Financial Times award in the field of modern slavery and its implications for her future work. The conversation also extends to her involvement in the technical committee on modern slavery set up by BSI. Finally, Gabriella offers advice to women aspiring to enter this field.
