Dean Martijn Cremers
Monday, 4 November 2024Please join me for the third University Chair Lecture to be delivered by Jason Colquitt, the Franklin D. Schurz Professor in the Department of Management & Organization and academic director of the Ph.D. in Management program. Jason’s talk, “Insights on Trust and Justice in Organizational Life,” will take place from 3-5 p.m., Thursday, November 14 in the Jordan Auditorium followed by a reception in the atrium.
We launched the University Chair Lecture Series in fall 2023 to recognize the importance of the research contributions of our faculty. The series features Mendoza faculty designated as University chairs – Notre Dame’s highest recognition of the impact of a faculty member’s research. The event is an opportunity to hear about the work and career of some of our most impactful faculty and to celebrate together how – through our research – we are growing the good in business.
Jason researches in the areas of justice, trust, work meaning, personality and identity. He has published over 50 articles with more than 60,000 (!!!) citations in top academic journals such as the Academy of Management Journal, Academy of Management Review, Journal of Applied Psychology, and Organizational Behavior and Human Decision Processes.
His career includes serving as a past editor-in-chief and associate editor for of the influential Academy of Management Journal. He currently serves on the editorial boards of the Academy of Management Journal, Academy of Management Review and Administrative Science Quarterly.
Jason’s prodigious research career has been recognized with the Cummings Scholar Award for early to mid-career achievement, which is sponsored by the Academy of Management’s Organizational Behavior division. He also authored one of the top-selling organizational behavior textbooks, which is now in its eighth edition.
As the founding academic director of the Ph.D. in Management, Jason was responsible for shaping a groundbreaking program for the College that has successfully recruited talented candidates who are already contributing to their discipline with published research.
Previous University Chair Lectures by Mike Crant, the Notre Dame Professor of Management & Organization, and Ahmed Abbasi, the Joe and Jane Giovanini Professor of IT, Analytics, and Operations, were illuminating and entertaining.
I hope you will attend.
I also encourage you to attend the Thomas H. Quinn Lecture featuring Gerry Baker, Wall Street Journal editor at large, at 3:30 p.m. ET on Friday, November 8, in the Jordan Auditorium. He will present “Unpacking the Election: Where Do We Go From Here?”
In Notre Dame,
