Dr Eamon Mulligan

Biography

Dr Eamon Mulligan is an Assistant Professor (Teaching & Scholarship) in Business & Project Management at Northeastern University London. He has over 25 years industry experience in Financial Services across multiple global blue-chip companies and ‘C’ level leadership roles.

His teaching cohorts have spanned school leavers, international students, adult learners, career changers, and senior executives across five institutions and three countries. The cumulative effect is a teaching practice grounded in authentic professional practice knowledge and a teaching identity that rests on a deliberate practitioner-academic bridge. The consistent thread is the conviction that unlearning is as significant a pedagogical challenge as learning — and that designing for the displacement of prior knowledge frameworks enables transformative teaching.

Qualifications

PhD in Management (Strategy & Entrepreneurship), Lancaster University
Executive Masters in Organisational Change, HEC Paris / University of Oxford
BSc in Theoretical Physics, Lancaster University
