Catherine Glover

Catherine Glover is a Distinguished Teaching Fellow and Assistant Professor in the School of Design, Arts and Creative Industries at Northumbria University, UK. She teaches research design, cultural and creative leadership, and responsible management to postgraduate taught and research students. Her research explores how neuro-education, systems thinking and personal storytelling combine to shape mindset and behaviour at macro, meso, and micro levels. Her focus is creative health, courageous leadership and innovative cross-disciplinary action. Catherine holds an MRes and a PhD in strategic storytelling, both from Northumbria University. She sits on the Women in Leadership Working Group of the Council for Higher Education in Art and Design (CHEAD). She also serves on the editorial and review boards of several academic journals. A visionary and tactical thinker, she champions inclusive learning approaches, diverse viewpoints, and collaborative dialogue. She sees these as the building blocks of constructive debate and pluri-avenues for shaping positive change, a conviction that runs throughout this book.
