Biography

Anne E. Witte combines expertise in a range of the humanities and social sciences to provide interdisciplinary instruction to management students at EDHEC Business School where she has held a position as Professor since 1991. Author of recently published materials in peer reviewed journals such as the Journal of Management Enquiry, Management Education, International Journal of Education for Business and Journal of International Business Communication, her current focus involves applying the methods of anthropology to analysing changing consumer, citizen and generational values in a globalizing world. With strong interests in comparative and international approaches to business education, she has been instrumental in the development of international off-shore programmes involving partner institutions in New York and Beijing, multi-media distance-learning platforms and crossdisciplinary projects. She holds two doctoral degrees (one earned in the U.S., the other in France), and serves as Assistant Dean for the EDHEC Intercontinental Honours Track and for International Academic Affairs. A native New Yorker, she has extensive international teaching and field work experience.
