Evangelia Baralou holds a B.Sc. Hons. in Computer Science (Athens University of Economic and Business) and a M.Sc. with distinction in Business Information Technology Systems (Strathclyde University).

Evangelia has worked as a research assistant in an EU-funded research project “Advancing Women Returners in ITEC” in Bath University during 2005.

Evangelia has presented her research in all the major conferences in management studies (AOM, BAM, EGOS, OKLC). She has published one paper in a journal (The International Journal of Learning) and three book chapters with academics in various parts of the world. Her publications so far indicate her ability to collaborate as an independent researcher with other academics and publish in various areas of management studies.
Evangelia has teaching and research interests in the areas of knowledge management, organizational learning, new organizational structures, emotions and social identity. She has taught at Strathclyde University, University of Glasgow, Stirling University and ALBA Graduate Business School. Her doctoral research was specifically focused on the creation of organizational knowledge in teams of geographically dispersed individuals.
