Sigrun Wagner is a sustainability academic with significant experience in leadership, strategy, teaching, scholarship and external engagement.
In the academic year 2023-24, Sigrun was on sabbatical, complementing her academic expertise in sustainability with some practical perspectives through industry-based placements, which led to the publication of case studies for teaching purposes, to various speaking engagements, and the development of a climate communications toolkit.
Sigrun was the first Head of the newly created Department for Strategy, International Business and Entrepreneurship, taking up this role in the School of Business and Management in August 2019 until July 2023, after leading the subject group as convenor from September 2018 to July 2019.
In 2021 she introduced Carbon Literacy Training to the College and helped shape the environmental sustainability strategy.
In 2020 she published a textbook on business and environmental sustainability with Routledge.
Sigrun joined the School in September 2009 as a Teaching Fellow in Strategy and International Business, and became a Lecturer in International Business and Sustainability in 2013, before her promotion to Senior Lecturer in 2015, and to Professor in 2022.
