About this event

  • Event lasts 2 hours

The Hugh Gunz Lectureship at the University of Toronto Mississauga aims to build on Hugh’s lifelong passion for the study of work and careers. Each year, we invite a scholar whose work exemplifies a deep understanding of workplace dynamics and a commitment to social responsibility.

This Year’s Theme: “Organizational Life” This year, we delve into the complexities of “Organizational Life,” exploring how organizations shape our work experiences and personal growth. Our lectureship brings together thought leaders to discuss pressing issues like ethical leadership, career transitions, and the role of organizations in society.

This Year’s Speaker: Professor Celia Moore, who is a Rotman alum, is Professor of Organisational Behaviour and Director of the Centre for Responsible Leadership at Imperial College Business School. Celia worked with Hugh during her time at Rotman and in her poignant response to our invitation said, “Hugh was nothing but light and love in my life”. Celia’s work focuses on how organisations unintentionally facilitate morally problematic behaviour, and on how individuals can manage themselves and organisations develop leaders who can better resist these consequences.
