About
Overview
Dr Simon Parker is a Senior Lecturer in Business and Society. He joined Bayes Business School in July 2024 following previous roles at Nottingham University Business School, Bayes Business School and Warwick Business school, where he was awarded his PhD.
In his research Simon adopts a critical perspective and covers a wide variety of topics and phenomena largely related to issues of justice and fairness. Often this is through the examination of alternative organizational forms such as cooperatives and sustainable financial institutions that are aimed at challenging and disrupting the dominate ways of organizing and doing business. Other times his work seeks to problematize existing organizational practices exploring deviant actors and misconduct.
Simon has taught a variety of topics across all levels and was awarded the Lord Dearing award for student engagement and teaching in 2023 at the University of Nottingham for his use of creative pedagogical methods in the classroom.
