Dr Jinghan Guan

Lecturer

My pedagogy bridges theoretical rigor with practical applications, emphasising stakeholder-centric strategy development and cross-border business dynamics.

Research Excellence
Awarded a PhD in Business Studies (Accounting & Finance) from the University of Southampton, my research interrogates the intersection of corporate governance and financial reporting. My recent publication in the British Accounting Review – “Narcissistic Audit Committee Chairs and the Quality of Non-IFRS Disclosures” – advances understanding of how executive psychology shapes financial transparency. My expertise spans:

• Directors’ Traits: Psychological drivers of governance decisions
• Audit Quality: Non-IFRS disclosures and regulatory environments
• Corporate Accountability: Board dynamics in emerging economies
