Over the period of 30 years in academia, Alan held module leader responsibilities for Masters’ level modules, such as ‘Managing in a Multinational Context’ and ‘Strategy’, as well as ‘Business Projects’ on the undergraduate degree programmes at Exeter University Business School. In previous posts he taught MBA-level modules in Strategy and Entrepreneurship in the UK, Bahrain, Oman, Saudi Arabia, Dubai, Singapore, Hong Kong and Indonesia.
