About Jeannie
Dr Jeannie Eun Su Lee serves as a Lecturer in Management at the Newcastle Business School, University of Newcastle, Australia. She earned her PhD from the University of Sydney Business School. Lee's academic interests center on refugee employment and workforce integration, international human resource management and cross-cultural management, the HRM–CSR nexus and stakeholder co-dependency, migrant inclusion and health equity, as well as outward FDI and home country innovation in multinational corporations. Her scholarship addresses psychological and emotional challenges faced by skilled migrants, cross-cultural training for refugees, and qualitative research reflexivity in business schools. Lee actively contributes to practical initiatives, including the Advancing Refugee Employment Project, which provides research-driven solutions for sustainable employment pathways for migrants, international students, temporary workers, skilled migrants, and refugees in the Newcastle and Hunter region.
Lee's influential publications include 'Unveiling the Canvas Ceiling: A Multidisciplinary Literature Review of Refugee Employment and Workforce Integration' (2020, International Journal of Management Reviews), cited 297 times; 'When context matters: What happens to international theory when researchers study refugees' (2021, Academy of Management Perspectives), cited 113 times; 'Refugee employment support: The HRM–CSR nexus and stakeholder co-dependency' (2021, Human Resource Management Journal); 'A vicious cycle of health (in)equity: Migrant inclusion in light of COVID-19' (2022, Health Policy and Technology); 'Neither developed nor emerging: Dual paths for outward FDI and home country innovation in emerged market MNCs' (2023, International Business Review); and 'Hidden agenda for cross-cultural training: understanding refugees’ cross-cultural experience through the capability approach' (2024, The International Journal of Human Resource Management). In 2022, she co-led a study revealing the cycle of health inequity faced by migrants. For her impactful engagement, Lee received the Outstanding Engagement for Research Impact Award at the 2024 University of Newcastle Engagement Awards. Her collaborations with researchers such as Betina Szkudlarek, Heidi Wechtler, Francesco Paolucci, and others advance understanding of global migration challenges and inform strategies for multinational corporations to support refugee integration.
