Jodyanne Jane Kirkwood is a New Zealand academic, and is a full professor at the Otago Polytechnic, and a senior lecturer at the University of Otago. She specialises in teaching and research on entrepreneurship. Kirkwood's interests include tall poppy syndrome, mumpreneurs and social entrepreneurs.

Academic career

Kirkwood completed a PhD titled One size doesn’t fit all: gender differences in motivations for becoming an entrepreneur at the University of Otago in 2004.[1] Kirkwood then joined the faculty of the Otago Polytechnic, rising to full professor.[2] She is also a senior lecturer at the University of Otago, where she teaches in the Master of Entrepreneurship course.[3]

Kirkwood's interests include tall poppy syndrome, which is a tendency to mock, belittle or denigrate successful people, and her inaugural professorial lecture focussed on whether tall poppy syndrome was holding New Zealand entrepreneurs back.[4] Her research showed that the negative comments which had the most impact on entrepreneurs were face-to-face comments from peers, rather than social media comments.[5] Kirkwood has also researched mumpreneurs and social entrepreneurs, and the role of family members in encouraging entrepreneurship.[6][7][8][9][10][11][12]

In 2014 Kirkwood was awarded a Top 12 Supervisor award by the Otago University Students Association, and has supervised more than 100 master's students and five doctoral students.[3][2]

Kirkwood is one of three Deputy Editors of the journal Small Enterprise Research.[13][14]
