Researcher of Organizational Governance

My Research in the Spotlight

I am the RBC Professor in Responsible Organizations and a Professor at Concordia University’s John Molson School of Business in Montreal, Canada. During the fall of 2024, I hold the Gender Chair at France’s CNRS.
My research focuses on organizations, their governance, and gender inequalities. Governance concerns how organizations are run and how the different people involved in running them behave. I am currently exploring how organizational governance contributes to upholding and disrupting gender inequalities.
My studies have been published in leading academic journals, including the Journal of Accounting & Economics, Critical Perspectives on Accounting, and Human Relations.

November 2024 Guest at CBC News

I spoke with Shawn Apel at CBC about paternity leaves in Québec and Canada, and how men who take paternity leaves pave the way to make it easier for other men in their workplace to do the same

Sep 2023 My most-read article in The Conversation

In the “Five ways to deal with burnout,” I discuss how we can get out of burnout, emphasizing how burnout is fundamentally a symptom of a problematic organization rather than an issue that individuals are to blame for.

April 2022 New funding

I am elated to announce that I received funding from the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council (SSHRC) of Canada for research on gender inequalities in organizations!

In April 2022, SSHRC has awarded an Insight Grant of $139,918 to the research program “Disruptive Dames? The process of disruption underlying women’s transition into organizational leadership,” which I direct as a principal investigator. The research program explores the process underlying the disruption of gender inequalities in the leadership of for-profit organizations in Canada.

The research team for this program includes my colleagues at Concordia University, Professors Joel Bothello and Anne-Marie Croteau.

Why are there such persistent gender inequalities in Canadian leadership? How can we build trust in organizations?
