Anastasiya Henk is Associate Professor of Management and Strategy for Digital Transformation at Nord University Business School in Bodø, Norway. She earned her BSc in Management of Foreign Economic Relations in 2008 and her MSc in Management of Organizations in 2010 from Taurida National V.I. Vernadsky University in Ukraine. She later completed an MSc in Business (Management Control) in 2015 and a PhD in Business in 2019 at Nord University.

Her research focuses on AI competence development, transformation of professional identities in knowledge-intensive work, and organisational governance for AI. She studies how AI-related competences evolve over time, including processes of upskilling, reskilling and deskilling, and how such shifts reshape related forms of expertise, professional roles, and managerial practice. Another central concern in her work is differentiated governance for AI. She examines how different AI models and methods create distinct affordances, risks, and organisational requirements, and therefore require governance structures that are sensitive to such differences rather than based on one uniform framework. She also develops AI-driven solutions for rigorous analysis of large qualitative datasets, which reflects her interest in AI both as a subject of research and as a research tool in academic work.

At Nord University, she leads the Academic AI Resource Group (LOKI) and the Digital Management and Marketing Research Group. Her project portfolio includes AI Services Nord (2024-2025), a regional initiative funded by the Arctic 2030 Programme that aims to strengthen public service delivery through AI in Northern Norway, and AISE (2021-2023), a project funded by the Research Council of Norway on AI implementation in service organisations. She has also contributed as a researcher to Monitor 2024, an EU-funded project that evaluated the effects of Bodø as European Capital of Culture; TRANSACT AI, a project funded by Norwegian Research Council, that studies changes in accounting and auditing professions. In 2026, she holds a visiting scholar position at the Center for Technology in Government, University at Albany, SUNY.
