I’m Milena Tekeste: a scholar, educator, and researcher who has spent over a decade examining how women build and sustain careers across borders, identities, and institutions. My work sits at the intersection of global mobility, women’s careers, and the future of work.

Throughout my career, I have taught at the London School of Economics, University College London, and New York University Abu Dhabi, published academic research in journals such as Human Resource Management Journal, The International Journal of Human Resource Management, Organization, and Gender, Work & Organization, and contributed to global conversations through features in Forbes and Psychology Today.
