I am on a mission to understand and foster equitable workplace dynamics and outcomes in an increasingly complex, globalized world.

My research examines the relationship between leadership and collaboration, innovation, and equity in diverse and complex organizational contexts.

I teach and supervise extensively in leadership, diversity, and international management, and I am an executive coach certified by INSEAD. Currently, I serve as Chair of the Global Committee of the Organizational Behavior Division at the Academy of Management (AOM’s largest division), as an Associate Editor of Applied Psychology, and as an editorial review board member of several leading journals, such as Human Resource Management Journal.

I obtained my PhD in Management (cum laude) from IESE Business School, Barcelona. Before joining ESCP Business School and relocating back to Spain, I was a tenured faculty member at Copenhagen Business School, where I held various academic responsibilities, including serving as an academic programme director.
