We aim to pioneer in the field of disruption management by fostering a research ecosystem that encourages the exploration of resilient and adaptive business strategies within the Desautels Faculty.
Recognizing the importance of bridging theoretical insights and real-world challenges, our goal is to cultivate a vibrant community of scholars engaged in knowledge creation that informs better management practices in the face of disruptive challenges.
