What's the one thing you'd like the Ted Rogers School of Management community to know about you?
My top priority as Dean will be to support the people at the School, the faculty, students and staff. I want all of us to feel welcomed, valued and heard. I firmly believe that by cultivating a strong sense of community and by building genuine connections, we can create a wonderful environment where we can all thrive.
Tell us more about your perspective on why a business education matters more than ever?
I believe that education, broadly, holds greater importance now than ever before in our rapidly evolving world. A business education delivers learning outcomes that uniquely equip students for career success. The Ted Rogers School teaches students how to boldly address the opportunities and challenges in the world of business. We offer an education that is relevant for the job market, building skills in communication, teamwork, leadership, entrepreneurial thinking, and ethical and strategic decision-making.
