About Nancy K Napier

Distinguished Professor Emerita at Boise State University with over 35 years of expertise in organizational creativity, innovation, and international business. As a recognized authority on Vietnamese business and education, I've been honored with Vietnam's highest awards for foreigners: the Medal of Honor for educational advancement and the Medal of Friendship for fostering US-Vietnam relations. My career spans pioneering work establishing Vietnam's first international-standard business school, managing an $8.5M joint US-Swedish funded education project, and extensive research on organizational creativity and emerging economies. As former Adjunct Professor at Aalborg University (Denmark) and Executive MBA program leader, I've shaped international business education across continents. As the author of multiple books on organizational creativity and Vietnam's economic transformation, I regularly contribute to Psychology Today and Idaho Statesman. My media presence includes hosting NPR's Idaho Business Matters and serving as a business expert on KTVB Channel 7's Noon News. Previously contributed to Forbes Vietnam, bridging business insights across cultures. Currently focused on executive coaching, consulting, and leading Boise State's Executive MBA Vietnam residency program. I'm exploring new horizons through fiction writing while maintaining an active speaking schedule on creativity, innovation, and cross-cultural leadership. Throughout my career, I've followed one guiding principle: "Do good work, learn a lot, work with good people, and have fun." My mission remains to build bridges across different fields, cultures, and people to help organizations and individuals discover innovative ways to improve and succeed.
