Jessica Breaugh, Associate Professor at ESCP’s Berlin Campus, has been recognised by leading business education publication Poets & Quants as one of the 50 Best Undergraduate Business Professors of 2025.

Now in its eighth year, the list features business professors who demonstrate excellence in teaching and research. This year’s honorees were selected from more than 1,000 nominations submitted by students, alumni and peers.

"It is an honour to be recognised among so many talented professors around the world,” said Breaugh of her selection. “Being part of ESCP’s international and multicultural environment makes teaching an incredibly dynamic and rewarding experience.”

Educating with purpose and perspective

Jessica Breaugh teaches Corporate Social Responsibility and Business Ethics in the Bachelor in Management (BSc) programme at ESCP. Her multidisciplinary background, spanning psychology, political science, governance, and public affairs, informs both her teaching and research. “I see my role as making complex topics accessible by bridging theory and practice to help students see not only the academic logic of an issue but also its real-world importance,” she told Poets & Quants.

Beyond the classroom, Breaugh’s research focuses on how individuals experience organisational and societal change, with a particular interest in public management, digital transformation, and workplace wellbeing. She has published in several highly ranked journals, including Public Management Review and Government Information Quarterly, and sits on the editorial board of Public Personnel Management.
