A case for teaching with stories

Teachers often use real-life examples to make lessons stick in the minds of students. TL Hill, professor of strategic management at the Fox School, was looking for a teaching case that would help students work through a difficult problem: How do you measure and document impact in the nonprofit world? When he couldn’t find one, […]

Managing the mental cost of multitasking with mindfulness

In the past, businesses were made up of workers who dedicated their time to a singular task. However, thanks to technological advancements, employees are now expected to handle a larger and more varied to-do list with even tighter deadlines. In an effort to keep up, many workers turn to multitasking, like finishing up a report […]

Can anger facilitate a social movement?

Last summer, the murder of George Floyd sparked a series of protests, attracting crowds of about 26 million people and making the Black Lives Matter (BLM) movement probably the largest social movement in the history of the U.S. But the BLM movement had a history before the summer of 2020. The movement became nationally known […]

When racism is involved, is the customer always right?

As companies across industries grapple with systemic racism and inequality, business school students must sharpen their knowledge and skills in diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) in order to create positive change and a more just future as the next generation of business leaders.   Marilyn Anthony, previously an assistant professor in the Department of Strategic Management, […]

Demystifying egalitarian pay

When most people think of pay structures, they think of merit or performance. The amount of money you get is based roughly on the quality and quantity of your contribution to the company. This is why the accountant of a company, for example, makes more than the receptionist, a more productive salesman makes more than […]

What COVID can teach us about managing stress before we burn out (again)

When my coworkers started emailing this New York Times article, I checked in with myself and my team. We were burned out. I knew it before I asked them. I saw the dark circles under their eyes, and even through Zoom, I felt how strained we all were. While nobody’s performance waivered—in fact, they continue […]

Recipe for a “just-right” workplace

No business is perfect. From top-down management to lopsided raises, maintaining a successful business strategy comes with many challenges. The “perfect” organization might seem like a fairytale, but can it be a reality? In-Sue Oh, Charles E. Beury Professor of human resource management at the Fox School, found a recipe for a just-right workplace environment.  […]

The cost of being ignored

The emergence of the “Zoom Happy Hour” was not just a fun distraction from being in quarantine. Socializing with coworkers is an important and necessary component of workplace culture. And not being invited, whether to an after-work bar hop or a call-in video conference, can have an outsized emotional impact on our lives. Ryan Vogel, […]

How to earn an MBA while being a parent

For years, an MBA is how professionals have gotten from A to B in their careers. The MBA bump, as it is commonly called, usually manifests as a salary increase or a promotion. These days, it’s not uncommon for the MBA bump to coincide with the baby bump. So how can you learn to balance […]

Putting people first: Linh Nguyen on the importance of HR

The COVID-19 pandemic has changed the workplace. Employers and employees have learned new ways of interacting with each other, and thanks to technology and video conferencing tools like Zoom, the transition from working in an office to a home office has been smooth for many.  But it’s not just technology that made the transition for […]

She already held degrees in communications and adult education, and she wanted to round out her education with a business degree to boost  her career. She chose the Fox OMBA for the […]

Research retrospective

“The best time to plant a tree is 20 years ago. The next best time is today.” This ancient Chinese proverb applies to ideas as well as habits. A seed planted today can spark change; a seed planted decades ago can disrupt an entire industry.  Faculty experts from the Fox School demonstrate the impact that […]

Diversity does not mean inclusivity: Patrick McKay discusses the importance of both in the workplace

A work environment that is not only diverse but inclusive is essential to the productivity of workers. Patrick F. McKay, the Fox Stanley and Franny Wang Professor of Human Resource Management, believes a diverse work environment is only the first step in helping workers feel comfortable stating their individual ideas. In a conversation with McKay, […]
