Dean’s Message

Research with Impact

Fostering a culture of research excellence is one of the key pillars of our mission here at Schulich.

But we wouldn’t be able to achieve that without the incredibly talented and diverse community of world-class researchers we have at our School. The feature articles, faculty profiles and other articles in this year’s Spotlight on Research magazine provide numerous examples of the innovative and highly relevant research work our faculty is producing.

At Schulich, we’ve long been committed to producing research with impact — research that advances management theory and makes a tangible difference in the world around us. And although Schulich has traditionally been recognized as a global thought leader in fields such as sustainability, ethics and social impact, our faculty are also doing important work in new and emerging areas of business, including Digital Innovation and Equity, Diversity & Inclusion (EDI).

In the pages that follow, you’ll discover how their research is delving into the implications of the digital revolution reshaping business, as well as the ways in which businesses can create more inclusive workplaces by tackling issues such as systemic racism and gender equality.

I invite you to read this year’s edition of Spotlight on Research and learn more about some of the many discoveries our researchers are making — discoveries that are changing business for the better.

Welcome Message

Welcome to the Schulich School of Business 2022 Spotlight on Research Report

We are extremely pleased and proud to present this edition of our annual research report. It provides a fascinating overview of the rich, relevant, and wide-ranging research activity being undertaken by the dynamic cadre of Schulich faculty. It also celebrates the achievements and recognitions earned this past year by our colleagues.

One of the things that is particularly worth noting is how Schulich researchers have anticipated the plethora of opportunities and problems that advances in artificial intelligence presents for consumers, companies, and the institutions that matter to citizens. Take the opportunity to read about the studies being conducted by Theodore Noseworthy, Professor of Marketing and a Canada Research Chair (Tier II), who is currently working on eight different consumer research projects related to AI, or by Markus Giesler, Professor of Marketing, who has been examining what he describes as the “sociology of marketing AI,” or by Murat Kristal, Associate Professor of Operations Management and Information Systems, who is part of the Connected Minds research team. When you do, you will realize that Schulich is in the advance guard of research on this multi-faceted, rapidly-evolving phenomenon.

Also striking is the ever-wider range of research being conducted by Schulich scholars concerned with equity, diversity, inclusion, and decolonization. It spans the spectrum from research on racialized brands by Ela Veresiu , Associate Professor of Marketing, to research on toxic masculinity at work co-authored by

Luke Zhu , Associate Professor of Organization Studies. It ranges from investigations of how accents affect gender equity done by Ivona Hideg , Associate Professor and Ann Brown Chair in Organization Studies, and Winny Shen , Associate Professor of Organization Studies, to studies of social media and accountability by Dean Neu and Gregory Saxton , both Professors of Accounting. Indeed, the mix of studies in this category is so rich, we can’t summarize them all here. We encourage you to examine this section of the report in detail.

As you read this report, you’ll find that Schulich researchers of every generation are earning accolades for high-impact research programs. One excellent example at the early career end of the spectrum is Adam Diamant , Associate Professor of Operations Management and Information Systems, who was named a Tier II York Research Chair in Managing AI-Driven Technologies in Health Care in 2022. Have a close look at the important work Adam is doing to harness artificial intelligence to support the optimization of personalized diagnostics and the delivery of outpatient services. In the mid-career range of the spectrum, Dirk Matten , Professor of Sustainability and Hewlett

Packard Chair in Corporate Social Responsibility, is being recognized as one of the top five scientists by Law and Political Science in Canada . When you have a look at the summary of his body of work, you’ll see why. It’s also easy to see why Moshe Milevsky, Professor of Finance, has been appointed ViceChair of the Investor Advisory Panel of the Self-Regulation Organization of Canada, recognized by Investment Advisor magazine as one of the 35 most influential people in the U.S. financial advisory business during the last 35 years, and why he received a lifetime achievement award from the Retirement Income Industry Association. And at the advanced career stage, it’s wonderful to see Russell Belk , Kraft Foods Canada Chair in Marketing and York University Distinguished Research Professor, receiving a well-deserved Doctorate Honoris Causa (honorary doctorate), from the Université de Reims Champagne-Ardenne.

The Office of the Associate Dean, Research is deeply committed to supporting our researchers, and we take great pride in helping our faculty members secure research grants, which are interdisciplinary, multifaceted, and diverse in nature. Our researchers are collaborating

with industry, government, community groups, not-for-profits, and academic partners — both locally and internationally — to create new knowledge and discoveries that address the world’s most pressing business questions and social challenges. Schulich researchers continue to successfully secure funding from Canada’s federal Tri-Council granting agencies, the major source of research and scholarship funding for Canadian universities. In 2022, Schulich achieved an unprecedented 100% success rate in obtaining federal research grant income from the Tri-Council Funding: SSHRC (Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council) Insight Grants, NSERC (Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council) Discovery Grants, and CIHR (Canadian Institutes of Health Research) Operating Grants. We also secured over $1.25 million in federal research grant income — a record-high amount.

The Office of the Associate Dean, Research is also committed to supporting the mobilization of

knowledge created by our faculty members. One way we do so is by encouraging faculty to share news about the research they’re presenting, publishing, and publicizing via a dedicated email address (researchsuccess@schulich.yorku.ca). The Office collects these messages, enters them into the appropriate databases, and sends out an email to all faculty and PhD students on a regular basis. The Research Office also works with the school’s media team on press releases about some forthcoming research; the press releases are circulated broadly to the Schulich community. Further, our Office helps to update the Faculty & Research section on the Schulich website that includes modules on the Spotlight on Research, Faculty Impact, Research Funding, a Publications Database, Schulich’s Centres of Excellence and other research institutes and labs, and a breakdown of Schulich faculty by research area. These are all important supports for knowledge mobilization, which will be an increasing priority for the office in the years to come.

We hope you enjoy reading about our exciting research work as much as we enjoy sharing it with you. And, most of all, we would be happy to hear from you. Please email any feedback, suggestions, or comments you may have to research@schulich.yorku.ca *

8 Schulich School of Business

Schulich School of Business celebrated its fifth biennial Research Day after a one-year hiatus on June 17, 2022. The event was held in the newly built Rob and Cheryl McEwen Graduate Study & Research Building, which had remained closed for the better part of the last two years due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The event was another milestone in our return to in-person events at Schulich and was attended by alumni, students, faculty, and staff across the university to celebrate the innovative research and creative achievements of researchers at Schulich.

“Research Day is a terrific opportunity for showcasing the cutting-edge research work conducted by our faculty members,” said Dean Zwick. “Our groundbreaking research aims to create knowledge that makes a tangible difference in the world around us. It emphasizes real-world problems, and it provides practical insights for business managers and practitioners.”

The event offered a thoughtprovoking plenary panel discussion, expert conversations on Schulich’s trailblazing research, presentation of the prestigious Dean’s Research Impact Awards, and an academic excellence reception in honour of our award recipients.

“There is an enormous wealth of knowledge created behind the office doors of Schulich faculty,” said Professor Matten, Associate Dean of Research (until 30 June 2022).

“Research Day is the unique occasion where we open these doors and show to the Schulich community what exciting work is going on. Schulich

faculty members have done an absolutely fabulous job to ensure that our credibility as a school is deeply rooted in world leading research contributions.”

The plenary session, “The Purpose, Scope and the Impact of Research in a Business School,” moderated by Sustainability Professor Dirk Matten, former Associate Dean of Research and Hewlett-Packard Chair in Corporate Social Responsibility, featured four distinguished speakers — Paul Klein, CEO and Founder of Impakt for Social Change, and author of Change for Good; Detlev Zwick, Dean and Tanna H. Schulich Chair in Digital Marketing Strategy; Ruodan Shao, Associate Professor of Organization Studies; and Ela Veresiu, Associate Professor of Marketing. The panelists reflected on their roles as mentors, leaders, experts, and researchers in their respective fields. In particular, they shared their thoughts on how Schulich as a leading business school and a premium player attracting private donations and endowments

can use its research-active faculty to differentiate its brand and its content delivery amid the growing tide of online education. Their conversations focused on some challenges involving new metrics of research impact evaluation and how new technologies have provided new opportunities of disseminating and communicating research. The panel discussed and contextualized the implications of a changing landscape of business research for the Schulich School of Business.

The panel was followed by three Expert Conversations which provided introductory peeks into new research areas being studied by the faculty.

The first Expert Conversation, “Recent Developments in FinTech and Cryptocurrency Research at Schulich,” was between Henry M. Kim, Associate Professor of Operations Management and Information Systems, and Director of blockchainlab; and Perry Sadorsky, Professor of Sustainability and Economics, and it revolved around the rise of the FinTech era. Blockchain, the underlying technology of cryptocurrencies, has been in focus over the last couple of years due to the meteoric rise in crypto valuations in 2020-21, and the subsequent crash which wiped out trillions of dollars from investors’ portfolios. Both Sadorsky and Kim see blockchain as

a technology with immense potential which is still in its preliminary stages of development. “Much like AI mimics intelligence, blockchain mimics trust,” Professor Kim explained to his audience, and emphasised that the use cases of this trust-based technology are not limited to finance but would overlap across accounting, operations, and other disciplines as well.

Expert Conversation II, “The Global South as a Geographical Focus of Research at Schulich,” with Dean Neu, Professor of Accounting, and Dirk Matten, former Associate Dean Research, Professor of Sustainability and Hewlett-Packard Chair in Corporate Social Responsibility, centred on the extortion economy in the Global South. Professor Neu presented vignettes from his research work to showcase the complexities of the issues that render straitjacket solutions impossible in these settings, as well as to highlight how these complexities lend themselves to the multiple frames’ theory. Professor Matten made a salient observation about the need to encompass this research as part of the curriculum as the student demographic evolves toward a much greater representation of students from non-Western countries, whose lived experiences don’t quite mirror the standard textbook at a Canadian higher education institution.

The final session of the day, “Research in Equality, Diversity, and Inclusion at Schulich,” featured a conversation between Ela Veresiu, Associate Professor of Marketing, and Luke Zhu, Associate Professor of Organization Studies. Defining intersectionality as “an analytical framework for analyzing human experiences,” Veresiu presented some of her own research from the intersection of age and gender in the fashion and beauty space. Zhu elaborated on the importance of Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion (EDI) in areas that may intuitively seem outside of the scope of these initiatives — like supply chain management, and firm performance.

The Research Office also presented the 2021 & 2022 Spotlight on Research Report, which recorded and highlighted faculty excellence across a range of academic disciplines.

The event culminated with the presentation of the Prestigious Dean’s Research Impact Awards. Dean Zwick concluded the afternoon with a reflection drawn from his own experience as a researcher. “Attempting to answer difficult questions means putting your name and reputation as a researcher on the line,” said Dean Zwick. “Everyone pursuing this enterprise deserves our recognition.” *

“ Research Day is a terrific opportunity for showcasing the cutting-edge research work conducted by our faculty members. Our groundbreaking research aims to create knowledge that makes a tangible difference in the world around us. It emphasizes real-world problems, and it provides practical insights for business managers and practitioners.”

Adam Diamant Appointed

York Research Chair in Managing AI-Driven Technologies in Health Care

Adam Diamant, Associate Professor of Operations Management and Information Systems at Schulich, was recently named a Tier II York Research Chair in Managing AI-Driven Technologies in Health Care. Diamant uses sophisticated analytics techniques to study and develop new operational processes in health care management.

The York Research Chairs (YRC) program, established in 2015, is envisioned as York University’s internal counterpart for the national Canada Research Chairs (CRC) program and recognizes outstanding researchers whose work has a global impact.

During his YRC term, Adam Diamant will work towards the development of artificial intelligence tools that support the optimization of personalized diagnostics and the delivery of outpatient services. This work promises to improve the delivery of health services by better understanding the interplay between operational efficiency and care quality, reducing barriers to accessing care, and empowering practitioners to make data-driven administrative decisions.

Diamant’s background in research began with his undergraduate degree in Computer Science and Physics at the University of Toronto. In 2009, he earned his Masters degree in Mathematical Finance from Questrom School of Business at Boston

University. In 2015, he went on to earn his PhD in Operations Management at Rotman School of Management at the University of Toronto, where he spent time researching scheduling models for multi-stage health care systems.

A resulting paper, “Dynamic Patient Scheduling for Multi-Appointment Health Care Programs,” has influenced other academic works that focus on the analysis of medical programs with multiple stages of treatment and has brought Diamant considerable notoriety in the field of health care operations management.

Diamant has published 20 articles, to date, in top-tier journals such as the Journal of Operations Management, Production and Operations Management, and Operations Research and in workshops/conferences such

as Machine Learning for Health Care and the Neural Information Processing Systems. Over the course of his impressive career, Diamant has presented his research at more than 30 conferences, seminars, and workshops, including at CORS (the Canadian Operational Research Society) and INFORMS (the Institute for Operations Research and the Management Sciences) conferences.

In a discussion with Professor Diamant, we learned about some of his research projects that utilize different technical approaches (i.e., deep learning, stochastic programming, and Queueing theory) as well as the managerial challenges associated with implementing AI systems. These research projects focus

on the challenges brought on by COVID-19 and more general topics in health care operations.

AI & HEALTH CARE

In health care, AI is slowly revolutionizing the way medical professionals approach diagnoses, make treatment decisions, and manage patient care.

Although AI tools have shown great promise in improving the delivery of health care services, widespread adoption is still years away. On one hand, AI systems typically need vast amounts of data to learn from, and this data must come from a wide range of sources. On the other hand, existing health processes can be difficult to automate and integrate with AI tools,

and health care providers may be resistant to change, which can make it challenging to effectively adopt and use new technologies

Diamant examines these managerial issues with the goal of designing new AI algorithms to improve service quality and operational efficiency, and better understand the organizational challenges in implementing AI tools.

DESIGNING NEW AI ALGORITHMS FOR MORE EFFICIENT HEALTH CARE DELIVERY

The practicality of an AI tool can be determined by evaluating its algorithmic performance, assessing its compatibility with existing health care processes, and considering the types of data that can be feasibly

Over the course of his impressive career, Diamant has published and presented his research

used. For instance, in a series of collaborative projects with Princess Margaret Hospital and the University of Toronto, Diamant and his colleagues proposed a new paradigm for automatically generating radiation therapy treatment plans, which is one of the most common cancer treatment methods, from contoured CT images. Currently, generating treatment plans for radiation therapy involves an oncologist who contours a CT image, followed by a dosimetrist who manually creates the treatment plan. The oncologist then reviews the plan to ensure that all clinical requirements have been met. Due to the complexity of creating clinically acceptable treatment plans, this process may be repeated several times. As a result, Knowledge-Based Automated Planning (KBAP) approaches have

been proposed, where treatment plans are created based on predictive tools, such as regression and random forests. While these data-driven techniques have achieved moderate success, KBAP prediction methods typically rely on the oncologist’s ability to identify features specific to the patient and the diagnosis. Since there are many types of cancers, identifying personalized attributes can be cumbersome. By training generative adversarial networks to predict treatment plans from only the contoured CT images, the team’s research proposes a general approach to generating KBAP predictions. From an operational standpoint, this tool reduces the lead time between plan generation and treatment delivery, while also providing a treatment plan quality comparable to the current manual process.

In some health care settings, limited data may be available. For example, during the peak of the COVID-19 pandemic, numerous patients had to be relocated from Toronto to other hospitals across Ontario in order to receive necessary medical attention.

To date, more than 2500 patients have been transferred, with most being transported via helicopter. Many health care professionals questioned whether a more proactive approach could be taken to reduce costs and minimize the disruption on patients and their families. However, the unpredictability of COVID-19 variants and the challenges of predicting future surges hindered efforts in this area.

To address this issue, Diamant and his colleagues from the Rotman School of Management and the Toronto Metropolitan University conducted

For instance, in a series of collaborative projects with Princess Margaret Hospital and the University of Toronto, Diamant and his colleagues proposed a new paradigm for automatically generating radiation therapy treatment plans, which is one of the most common cancer treatment methods, from contoured CT images.

a study utilizing a two-stage stochastic optimization model. In the first stage, medical resources are relocated before inpatient demand arises, which is considerably less expensive than transferring sick patients. In the second stage, people are moved after the demand for health resources has been observed (as is currently done). The crux of the approach is to replace the actual demand distribution, which is hard to accurately estimate, with an adversary that deliberately selects poor outcomes using the limited amount of existing information that is available, such as the active number of COVID-19 cases. Using this technique, the authors demonstrate that patient transfers can be reduced by a factor of five. Further, the algorithm is scalable and can be implemented in systems with hundreds of hospitals.

MANAGERIAL INSIGHTS IN THE USE OF AI TOOLS

For some systems, the delivery of health services requires too much flexibility to be completely outsourced to an AI system. Instead, understanding the characteristics of good operational policies can help decision-makers make informed choices in highly uncertain environments. Diamant and his colleagues from the Rotman School of Management and Alayacare analyzed the assignment of health professionals to patients who arrive stochastically over time and are heterogeneous with respect to their health requirements, service duration, and place of residence. They find that good scheduling practices require accurate predictions of a practitioner’s future workload, as this informs current assignment decisions. Additionally, well-performing scheduling policies

assign patients to workers operating within a small set of adjacent geographic regions, or a local cluster, to minimize travel times and account for the duration of care that is required by the arriving patient. Specifically, a practitioner is assigned a combination of long-term patients, which helps to define their local cluster, and shortterm patients, which ensures that their schedules are robust to the inherent uncertainty in demand.

In other research, Diamant and colleagues at Alba University and Cancer Care Ontario questioned whether it would be possible to more quickly reduce the backlog for MRIs due to the pandemic by leveraging large data stores and providing guidelines that specify how the data should be used for operational decision-making. Their research creates a model that addresses the

time-varying demand for MRI services while accounting for the progressive deterioration of a patient’s health. The model is used to determine, at any point in time, how to serve patients given their original priority and how long they have waited. Using this model with a data set that includes over 7.5 million MRI encounters in Ontario, Diamant and his colleagues determined how best to pool hospitals together so that they shared MRI capacity. They optimally demonstrate that by using recommendations made by the model, the waiting time for high-priority patients can be reduced by over 50% and that there is a large reduction in the number of patients, of all priorities, that exceed their wait time targets. The performance benefits use existing capacity more efficiently and do not rely on the purchase of new machines.

Professor Manus (Johnny) Rungtusanatham, Tier 1 Canada Research Chair (CRC) in Supply Chain Management at Schulich had high praise for Professor Diamant in his YRC nomination letter. “Professor Diamant is an outstanding researcher and an exquisite scholar. His achievements to date are evidenced by his research record, high-quality publications and collaborations, success obtaining research funding, and attractiveness to students seeking mentoring. He shows commitment to continuing excellence in his research scholarship to impact students, practitioners, academic peers, and society. He is on a path to be globally recognized for advancing the management of health care operations supported by analytics and AI.”

Diamant believes Schulich has been phenomenal in supporting his research. The community not only provided him with support and a strong research culture, but also the opportunity to connect with many local organizations. Since 2015, Diamant, individually and in collaboration with colleagues, has received over $2.5 million (CAD) to support his research program. What is also remarkable is the diversity of these funding sources. Besides competitive funds from within Schulich and York, he has received research grants from federal funding agencies (e.g., CIHR and NSERC) and other external sources (e.g., Sandra Rotman Centre for Health Strategy). He is extensively involved in the training of future researchers and is currently working with PhD students and Postdoctoral Fellows from York University and other universities around the world. *

Navigating the New World of Artificial Intelligence

During the past year, nothing has captured the imagination of people more than the seemingly sudden emergence of Artificial Intelligence, a revolutionary new technology that has the potential to dramatically transform the way we live and work.

Although Artificial Intelligence, or AI, has been around for quite some time now, it showed up on many people’s radar screens in a powerful way with the launch late last year of ChatGPT, a new chatbot released by OpenAI with the ability to write accurate, cogent text at breathtaking speeds and engage in humanlike conversations.

It’s the reason why some are calling AI one of the most transformational technologies since the internet, and why AI is attracting the attention of business researchers the world over.

A number of Schulich researchers are tackling a wide range of issues related to AI — everything from AI’s impact on cultural industries and the health sector to how AI is shaping consumers and impacting academia.

Schulich’s Research Office hosted a roundtable discussion on AI involving a number of faculty members. One of the keynote presenters at the meeting was Theodore Noseworthy, Professor of Marketing and a Canada Research Chair (Tier II), who is currently working on eight different research projects related to AI.

THE IMPACT OF AI ON HUMAN PSYCHOLOGY

One of the major projects he’s currently carrying out together with a team of researchers and coders looks at the psychological impact of AI.

“People tend to believe the responses generated by AI more than they do a search engine. Why? Because they co-create the answer. They believe it’s theirs. And as a result, they’re more likely to defend and share it.”

THEODORE NOSEWORTHY Professor of Marketing and a Canada Research Chair (Tier II)

As part of the study, the researchers created an imitation Google search page and an imitation ChatGPT page with pre-loaded identical answers, many of which were false, and asked study participants to state which of the responses they received were more accurate and truthful.

“People tend to believe the responses generated by AI more than they do a search engine,” says Noseworthy. “Why? Because they co-create the answer. They believe it’s theirs. And as a result, they’re more likely to defend and share it.”

Adds Noseworthy: “People understand that there is nuance in search engines. Even if Google provides a top-line paragraph with the ‘best’ answer, we still intuitively know there’s probably alternate opinions if we scroll down. But with AI, there is no such perception of nuance unless the AI itself provides it. This is a problem because people don’t hold the same defenses against bias with machines as they do with people. We find that even when an AI response is blatantly false, well-intentioned and otherwise intelligent people start second guessing their own instincts.”

“That’s problematic,” says Noseworthy, “because AI tools like ChatGPT can be biased for numerous reasons. They can be biased due to their training sets. They can be biased in their UI, or user interface. A classic example is when the AI won’t respond to a political or socially charged query. It’s not the AI taking the high road. It has an answer, but the user-interface is gated, and that gate may reflect a political leaning or even economic incentive more so than the pursuit of accuracy. Then there’s even the bias of the programmers themselves.”

Although this particular research project is still in the early stages, Noseworthy says the study is extremely promising and is likely to make an impact in terms of the formulation of government policies and regulations around misinformation. He says it’s “amazing” that a new technology like AI, which has so many profound implications for society, is not being regulated in the same way as a new drug or some other possibly dangerous product.

“Even high-profile names like Sam Altman, CEO of OpenAI, and Elon Musk have called for regulation,” adds Noseworthy. “But the real question is: how? Do you regulate a license agreement to sandbox the technology during early development? Do you regulate the training sets? There is a fine balance needed between crippling bureaucracy and consumer protection.”

AI AND HUMAN CREATIVITY: DISRUPTING THE ARTS INDUSTRIES

Noseworthy is also working on several research projects that are delving into the impact of AI on the arts.

AI-generated fake songs have been making headlines recently, including a song released in April that featured the voices of well-known musical artists Drake and The Weeknd. The song was created by an artist known as “Ghostwriter”, who used AI to overlay the famous artists’ voices over a musical beat he developed.

“It’s sort of ironic that AI promised to revolutionize employment efficiency while accelerating the sciences, yet few saw that one of the immediate disruptions would be within the arts,” says Noseworthy. “This is deeply disturbing and even morally reprehensible for some.” And the reason why, he notes, is that “creativity is a fundamental human characteristic — it’s what many believe defines who we are.”

He notes how AI-generated artwork and photographs have won top awards in fine arts competitions. “Some of these works of art are truly beautiful and moving,” says Noseworthy. “But the more emotional an AI painting is, the more uncomfortable it makes people feel. AI as sentient, as understanding what human love is — that makes people afraid. It goes to the very core of our deep-seated ideals of what it means to be human.”

“When people start to see AI as human, that’s when it triggers Terminator-level fear,” says Noseworthy. The Schulich researcher is also exploring the potential impact of AI on academia. One of the projects he and fellow researchers are carrying out is whether or not AI can generate novel ideas or fill gaps in the existing literature in various academic fields.

THE SOCIOLOGICAL AND CONSUMER IMPLICATIONS OF AI

Markus Giesler, Professor of Marketing and Editor of the prestigious Journal of Consumer Research has been doing research on what he describes as the “sociology of marketing AI.”

Described by Wired magazine as “one of the world’s best recognized experts studying high-technology consumer behavior,” Giesler co-authored a highly influential and widely cited research paper last year in the Journal of Marketing on consumers and Artificial Intelligence. The paper’s publication also happened to coincide with the meteoric rise of ChatGPT.

He is currently working on a new research project that looks at AI through a sociological lens. His area of expertise is one of the newest sub-fields in management — market system dynamics — which explores how consumers shape technology like AI and at the same time how consumers are shaped by technology. Giesler

Markus Giesler, Professor of Marketing, is currently working on a new research project which examines

MARKET SYSTEM DYNAMICS:

exploring how consumers shape technology like AI and at the same time how consumers are shaped by technology

calls this one of the new frontiers in research and an area where Schulich has quickly emerged as a global leader.

At its core, ChatGPT is “not about algorithms,” argues Giesler. “It’s really about society-level machine learning, which is the power behind generative AI. The more data it gets fed, the more effective it is.”

As a result, says Giesler, ChatGPT is fundamentally “a sociological enterprise and all of us are the participants in this experiment around Open AI.”

He calls AI “the first truly society-wide experiment” and says, “we’re all voluntarily participating in machine learning — for many of us, it has already become indispensable.”

As an example of how this new technology has captivated many of us, he mentions an incident recently in his own household, where he and his wife, who is expecting a child, asked ChatGPT to suggest possible baby names. “ChatGPT has a seat at our family table. It allows us to playfully interact with it, and in exchange it gives us insight and knowledge. It offers a contextual, nuanced answer to the question: what should we name our child?”

The more they drill down by adding different filters, says Giesler, the more the AI “knows about us, our backgrounds, and our preferences. And in going through this process, we’ve given up many data points about who we are.”

But Giesler also cautions everyone who has a free GPT account to remember the old marketing adage: “If it’s free, then you’re the product.”

A second research project he’s working on is taking an in-depth look at the ideological forces and tech heavyweights like Elon Musk, Sam Altman, and Mark Zuckerberg, who are shaping AI. Says Giesler: “Algorithms are biased, but so too are the people behind the algorithm. What do the tech elites think about consumers? And what does this teach us about the AI we will see — as well as the AI we will never see?”

Adds Giesler: “Their impact is selective and specific and is shaped by libertarian values and the tech bro culture they inhabit.”

Giesler is part of the York University team working on the biggest research program in the University’s history. Called Connected Minds: Neural and Machine Systems for a Healthy, Just Society, the program will examine the ways in which technology is transforming society.

Murat Kristal, Associate Professor of Operations Management and Information Systems and Director of Schulich’s new MBA in Technology Leadership, is also part of the Connected Minds research team and was brought on board to design professional training programs based on the research outputs generated by this large-scale initiative.

The one question no knows for sure is the extent to which AI will change our lives.

“A common trope is that ChatGPT will change everything,” says Giesler. “We seem prepared to accept that ChatGPT will play a central role in our lives even though it may not be the case at all.”

Giesler says that AI is creeping into the narrative of many organizations. “Institutional readiness for generative AI is an outcome of this sociological experiment,” says Giesler. “It’s a phrase we’ll hear a lot more of in the future when talking about how organizations and industries are adapting to the emergence of this technology.”

Giesler says he’s agnostic as to whether or not AI will change everything but also wonders aloud whether AI will ultimately change things “for the better.”

It’s a view echoed by Theodore Noseworthy: “These AI bots don’t have a moral imperative — they’re not good or bad — they are tools, and it is important to see them as such. It’s an amazing and exciting time, but also a concerning one. There is no putting this genie back in the bottle.” *

Investigating the Implications of Decolonizing, Equity, Diversity and Inclusion

Schulich faculty are researching new ways in which businesses are considering Decolonizing, Equity, Diversity and Inclusion (DEDI). In the past year, Schulich professors have studied ways in which gender, race, and financial literacy impact the corporate world. Accountability via social media, leadership training for all, and what developing countries can teach us about role boundaries are also being studied.

“At the Schulich School of Business, we approach DEDI through the lenses of access, belonging and student success,” says Jean-Jacques Rousseau , Instructor and Special Advisor to the Office of the Dean. “In recent months, this resulted in a new MBA specialization called ‘Leading Equity, Diversity and Inclusivity (EDI)’, and in new conversations like the recent panel discussion on social justice. We also reach out to external audiences with new scholarships for high-potential Black and Indigenous applicants, and offer targeted business training for high school students through the Schulich Business Excellence Academy and the tri-university University Pathway Program.”

What follows are some examples of how the Faculty is paving the way in this important field.

Understanding Racialized Brands

“Delegitimizing Racialized Brands,” written by Ela Veresiu, Associate Professor of Marketing, was published in the special issue of the Journal of the Association for Consumer Research on Racism and Discrimination in the Marketplace.

“From 131-year-old Aunt Jemima, 77-year-old Uncle Ben’s, and 99-yearold Eskimo Pie in the United States, to Red Skins and Chicos in Australia, to Beso de Negra in Columbia, to

100-year-old Gypsy Sauce in Germany, the perseverance of racist slurs and stereotypes in famous food brands around the world is striking,” says Veresiu.

Veresiu finds that, against the backdrop of global demonstrations and systemic racism, companies used two main arguments in the popular press to retire their racialized brands: antiracism and social tolerance.

“ From 131-year-old Aunt Jemima, 77-year-old Uncle Ben’s, and 99-year-old Eskimo Pie in the United States, to Red Skins and Chicos in Australia, to Beso de Negra in Columbia, to 100-year-old Gypsy Sauce in Germany, the perseverance of

RACIST SLURS AND STEREOTYPES IN FAMOUS FOOD BRANDS IS STRIKING

ELA VERESIU Associate Professor of Marketing

“I caution brand managers against merely changing racialized brand names without also giving back to the ethnic communities in question through, for example, concrete corporate policy changes, community initiatives, and financial donations,” said Veresiu.

Toxic Masculinity at Work

Men tend to respond to questions about their gender identity with a wide variety of harmful workplace behaviours, including withholding help, mistreating coworkers, stealing company property, and lying for personal gain.

“What Fragile Masculinity Looks Like at Work” was published in the Harvard Business Review by Luke Zhu, Associate Professor of Organization Studies, together with Keith Leavitt, the Betty S. Henry Amundson Faculty Scholar in Ethics and Professor of Management at Oregon State University; Maryam Kouchaki, Professor of Management and Organizations at Kellogg School of Management; and Anthony C. Klotz, Associate Professor of Management at University College London (UCL) School of Management. The research was first published in the journal Organizational Behaviour and Human Decision Processes.

“Men need to be aware of this behaviour, and proactively embrace a healthier version of masculinity,” says Zhu. “At the same time, managers and leaders can take steps to dismantle the structures that may be driving men to feel that their masculinity is being threatened in the first place.”

Accents and Gender Equity

“Women With Mandarin Accent in the Canadian English-Speaking Hiring Context: Can Evaluations of Warmth Undermine Gender Equity?”, was co-authored by Ivona Hideg, Associate Professor and Ann Brown Chair in Organization Studies, and Winny Shen, Associate Professor of Organization Studies, together with Samantha Hancock, an Assistant Professor in the DAN Department of Management & Organizational Studies at Western University. Published in the Psychology of Women Quarterly, the paper determined women with non-native accents often get pushed into traditionally feminine jobs with lower pay and prestige.

“Our findings indicate that women with a non-native accent associated with a more gender-traditional country face subtle biases that are difficult to recognize and hence difficult to address,” says Hideg. “Although on the surface it may seem that women with non-native accents experience advantages in hiring due to perceptions of warmth, our research shows that they are likely to be stereotyped and funneled into less prestigious positions.”

Hideg continued, “Managers and decision-makers need to be aware of these insidious obstacles that women with non-native accents experience because it may not be immediately apparent that an association of accent with higher ratings of warmth may in fact undermine women at work.”

Growing Minority Businesses

Business associations and other institutional intermediaries can play an important role in helping minority businesses succeed by providing training and access to large corporations, according to findings in the paper, “Relationship Building and Minority Business Growth: Does Participating in Activities Sponsored by Institutional Intermediaries Help?”, published in the Journal of Business Research.

The paper was written by M. Johnny Rungtusanatham, Canada Research Chair in Supply Chain Management and Professor of Operations Management and Information Systems; Mengyang Pan, Assistant Professor at the Research Institute of Economics and Management in Southwestern University of Finance and Economics; Ian Y. Blount, co-founder and Director of Research & Policy at the George Washington Carver Food Research Institute;

and James A. Hill, Chair of the Management Sciences Department and Associate Professor of Operations Management at The Ohio State University.

“Research shows that minority businesses have a lower rate of success than non-minority-owned businesses because they face higher barriers to business growth,” says Rungtusanatham. “These barriers include difficulty accessing skilled labour, acquiring financing, and entering mainstream markets.”

Although the study examined minority businesses in the US, it also offers some lessons for Canada, adds Rungtusanatham: “Federal, provincial, and local governments can not only help minority-owned businesses succeed by providing financial resources, but also by providing the legitimacy needed to successfully supply to large corporate businesses.”

Social Media and Accountability

“Twitter-based Social Accountability Callouts,” published in the Journal of Business Ethics, was co-authored by Dean Neu and Gregory Saxton, Professors of Accounting, revealed that social media channels like Twitter can be effective tools for citizens and activists who want to hold business and political leaders more accountable.

“The ways that Twitter aggregates and channels individual voices into a collective conversation provides grassroot participants with the ability to demand social accountability in a way that makes politicians, governments, and businesses stand up and take notice,” says Neu. “These characteristics have encouraged organizations as diverse as Wikileaks, the International Consortium of Investigative Journalists, USAID, and

Leadership Training and Bias

Winny Shen, Associate Professor of Organization Studies, and Navio Kwok, Vice President of Research and Marketing at Kilberry, wrote “Leadership Training Shouldn’t Just Be for Top Performers” for the Harvard Business Review.

The article highlights how organizations typically provide leadership training opportunities to those who already have a track record of success, creating a situation where training resources end up disproportionately going toward individuals who may need them the

“A key insight for managers and business owners is that it’s important to understand the potential minefield that is social media,” says Saxton. “It’s critical for managers to recognize this risk and do their best to maintain a constant awareness of relevant social accountability discussions.”

Role Boundaries in Developing Countries

Individuals wear many hats in their day-to-day lives; a manager of a company can also be a mother, as well as a marathon runner. Prior research examining how people choose to balance these multiple roles has generally predicted the following: the more different the roles are in terms of their associated behaviors, the more likely they are to keep them separate. Comparatively, when two or more roles are similar, individuals are more likely to integrate them.

The findings are contained in the paper, “Can I Sell You Avocadoes and Talk to You About Contraception?

Well it Depends Which Comes First: Anchor Roles and Asymmetric Boundaries,” published in the

Academy of Management Journal

The paper is co-authored by Geoffrey Kistruck, Professor and RBC Chair in Social Innovation and Impact at Schulich, together with Patrick Shaliest, Miguel Rivera Santos, and Winnie Nguni.

Researchers collected data from 73 people within Tanzania, whereby each individual possessed both a self-employment work role and a community volunteer role providing family planning counselling. Their findings suggested that whether the roles remained separate or were integrated was not straightforward, but rather depended on the characteristics of the ‘anchor role’ — the role that set the stage for the specific social interaction. When

anchored in their community role, they were very careful not to mix in business activities. However, when anchored in their work role, they very freely brought up family planning counselling.

According to the researchers, when the social interaction was anchored in their work role, the expectations for how to behave were very simple and straightforward — which left plenty of opportunity and flexibility for also wearing their community ‘hat’. However, when anchored in their more complex and constrained family planning role, the thought of also introducing activities associated with ‘work’ was perceived as highly conflicting and confusing. *

Disruption, Transformation, Stability: Exploring Industry Dynamics from a Global Perspective

This article summarizes the objectives of the Handbook and the journey of putting it together, which was itself disrupted by the pandemic. That journey is coming to a close. A growing number of the chapters is already available online — though in a somewhat unorganized fashion. And the printed volume will come out in 2024. So, this seems a good time to reflect on our aims and on the process of trying to achieve them.

NOW AVAILABLE ONLINE!

The Oxford Handbook of Industry Dynamics

edited

by Matthias Kipping (Schulich), Takafumi Kurosawa (Kyoto University), and D. Eleanor Westney (em. MIT and Schulich).

The Handbook was prompted by the public discourse on “disruption” over the past decade or so, originally related to digitization now taken up a notch with the rise of the chatbots. It sounded like almost every industry on the planet was being revolutionized, re-invented, if not doomed.

That contrasted with what we had found in our own historical research, where, yes, industries changed in terms of technologies, structures, actors, and locations – though generally less so than one would think. There are industries that have been remarkably stable over the past 100 years, like pulp and paper for instance. And no, this industry won’t finally disappear today because we largely stopped writing and reading on paper.

The Handbook was prompted by the public discourse on “disruption” over the past decade or so, originally related to digitization now taken up a notch with the rise of the chatbots.

First, e-books aren’t all that popular for instance. More importantly, we need so much more packaging materials because of all the “e-commerce”, a term which also gives a false impression since it actually involves a lot of physical infrastructure and activities. And while some industries have moved from location to location, others have budged little, luxury watches for instance.

Takafumi had already looked at some of these questions together with a few other scholars, among them Matthias, in several projects funded by the Japan Society for the Promotion of Science (JSPS) and Kyoto University. It led to two edited volumes with chapters covering a number of industries from a long-term, historical perspective.

MATTHIAS KIPPING

Academic Director, Kellogg-Schulich Executive MBA; Professor of Policy; Richard E. Waugh Chair in Business History

That’s when Matthias made the suggestion to put together an Oxford Handbook, increasing the scale in terms of the industries covered and the scope by including scholars from a wide range of academic disciplines. Matthias had already done such a Handbook (on Management Consulting) but had clearly forgotten how much work was involved.

At least we were prescient enough to bring in a third editor, more familiar with the relevant literature in business and management as well as sociology. We convinced Eleanor to join the team in Cambridge, Massachusetts, where Takafumi and Matthias attended the World Economic History Conference and where she had come to spend a few days to celebrate her birthday and the fact that she had just decided not to teach anymore. While telling us that she was looking for a new challenge, we are not sure Eleanor had any idea at the time how much work we were bringing her way….

Among her many contributions to the project was the brilliant idea to convince those, who had provided important theoretical as well as empirical insights to these questions, to reflect upon their own journey

and how they developed their understanding of industry dynamics. It helped that Eleanor knew most of them personally. Incidentally, all of these authors credited their escape from orthodox neo-classical economics as crucial for their appreciation of a more dynamic view of industry and firm evolution.

These contributions were also instrumental for the second main objective of the Handbook, in addition to moderating the discourse on “disruption”: to shine a spotlight on “industry” as a level of analysis.

This, it turned out, was a major challenge. Beyond the very few authors who had focused on specific industries in most of their research and writing, a majority of the initial drafts talked about firms and entrepreneurs, conceiving of industry as a collection of these actors. And even after sending more explicit editorial instructions, it was hard for some to examine the dynamics of an industry as a whole rather than looking at the more easily identifiable decisions and actions of specific organizations and individuals — in particular for cases where the industry was highly concentrated and

innovations and other changes were attributed to identifiable innovators.

Another challenge was to avoid making each chapter a detailed description of an industry and its evolution. This would have made life easier for us when comparing, maybe even clustering them, but would also have made for boring reading. Plus, such descriptions are already available elsewhere for many industries. We therefore encouraged authors to be innovative by combining their overviews with a specific theoretical/ conceptual framing or methodological approach. We also asked a few authors to look at a theme, like migration for instance, and examine how it is interrelated with industries. How we’ll make sense of all that in our Introduction to the Handbook remains to be seen.

Ironically, the making of the Handbook itself was disrupted –by the pandemic. We held a first conference preceded by a graduate student workshop at Kyoto University between September 26th and October 1st, 2019, which was part of the centennial celebrations of its Faculty of Economics.

Industry Dynamics Conference held at Kyoto University (September 26th – October 1st, 2019) to celebrate the 100th anniversary of its Faculty of Economics.

Another workshop was planned in Zurich, Switzerland for March 2020, but had to be cancelled at the last minute. Like everyone, we moved online, holding smaller Zoom workshops, usually covering four papers, giving authors a chance to discuss their draft with other authors and the editors. And we held occasional editorial meetings also via Zoom. We kept the momentum, but barely. This became even more than apparent, when we finally managed to get together again in person for a workshop at the Schulich School of Business in September 2022, generously funded by the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada (SSHRC) and the Richard E. Waugh Chair in Business History.

Everyone very much appreciated the presentations and, most importantly, the academic exchanges in the sessions, which continued during the breaks, lunches and dinners, one of which allowed participants to enjoy the view from the CN Tower. Like in Kyoto, the workshop was preceded by a seminar for PhD students, where Emeritus Professor Gary Gereffi from Duke University and Takafumi

stressed the importance of adopting an industry perspective and also discussed the benefits of following a research path rather than focusing on a “hot” topic.

A final event is still ahead: a panel at the Strategic Management Society conference in Toronto this Fall, where the editors and several contributors will discuss the complex interactions between environmental turbulence, industry dynamics, and business models. *

Yelena Larkin Invited by the Department of Innovation, Science, and Economic Development Canada

Yelena Larkin

In April 2023, Yelena Larkin, Associate Professor of Finance, was invited by the Department of Innovation, Science, and Economic Development Canada to provide consultation on the Canadian competition law and enforcement framework as part of the public consultation process launched by the Honourable François-Philippe Champagne, Minister of Innovation, Science, and Industry.

The roundtable consultation included participants from all sectors of Canadian society, including academic researchers, merger and antitrust legal practitioners, as well as representatives of the largest Canadian corporations and small business associations.

The main topics discussed during the consultation included the role and functioning of the Competition Act and Competition Bureau in an environment that has been increasingly dominated by large

corporations. The need to adjust the Act to the challenges of data and digital markets was also discussed. Larkin shared her research findings which showed that over the past two decades, Canadian stock markets have become more concentrated. Since 2008, the TSX stock exchange has lost a quarter of corporate firms, and the remaining ones have, on average, doubled in size. The market value of industry leaders has increased, and within-industry size inequality has widened.

YELENA LARKIN ACKNOWLEDGED BY THE US

EXECUTIVE OFFICE OF THE PRESIDENT

In 2022, the Executive Office of the President, together with the Council of Economic Advisers, issued a 2022 Economic Report of the President that presented the nation’s economic progress and made a case for the Administration’s economic policy priorities. The report cited Larkin’s 2019 Review of Finance article titled “Are US Industries Becoming More Concentrated?”, which has shown that US product and financial markets have become more concentrated over the past two decades. In recognition of her contribution in shaping the publication, in April 2022, Yelena Larkin received a thank-you letter from Professor Cecilia Elena Rouse, the Chair of the Council of Economic Advisers at the Executive Office of the President.

According to Larkin’s research, the recent changes in stock market concentration cannot be fully explained by changes in financial market regulations but are consistent with an increase in product market concentration and market power.

The revision of the Canadian Competition Act and the power of the Competition Bureau is an initiative that comes on the heels of the Executive Order on Promoting Competition in the American Economy issued by President Biden in 2021.

Schulich Professor Receives Financial Times Responsible Business Education Award

Ivona Hideg

Ivona Hideg, Schulich Associate Professor and Ann Brown Chair in Organization Studies received the prestigious ‘runner up’ award in the Responsible Business Education Awards (Academic Research with Impact category) of the Financial Times with her paper on ‘ The unintended consequences of maternity leaves’ in the Journal of Applied Psychology.

The Financial Times Responsible Business Education Awards showcase strong examples of work by business schools seeking to focus on people and planet alongside profit. The academic research award goes to papers that address societal challenges, with evidence of impact on policy or practice. Each award was judged by a group of senior people from the private, public, and non-profit sectors alongside FT journalists. The award winners believe in encouraging a cultural shift by them toward explicit recognition of their engagement in tackling societal issues and demonstrating the benefits of such involvements for scholarly research.

Hideg’s paper sought to address a challenge and conundrum faced by working women with a baby on a way in which they often deal with an unfortunate dilemma of whether to take a longer maternity leave or forgo a longer leave to improve their career opportunities. Longer maternity leaves improve the health of mothers and babies, and global trends indicate more countries extending and legislating longer maternity leaves (e.g., Canada; Scandinavian countries).

While such policies are progressive and well-intentioned, past research has suggested that longer maternity leaves (i.e., one year or longer) may unintentionally harm women’s careers.

Hideg’s research has sought to tackle this conundrum and enable women to do both, i.e., take much needed longer maternity leaves and advance their careers. To do so, her author team first sought to identify a mechanism underlying negative career effects of longer maternity leaves: undermined perceptions of agency (e.g., ambition and dedication to a job). Second, they sought to use that knowledge to create and test interventions which boost decision-makers’ perceptions of women’s agency.

“Our work suggests that there are ways in which women can take much needed longer maternity leaves but also advance in their careers, and both managers and organizations more broadly have a role to play in this process,” said Hideg. She and her colleagues found that “keep-in-touch” programs implemented by some organizations in corporate Canada enable women to women to signal their ambition and dedication.

“I am excited and relieved at the same time that socially responsible work is being recognized in the management world and that business and organizations are more proactive than ever about social responsibility,” said Hideg.

Professor Hideg has had a stellar career that has brought great distinction to the Schulich School of Business. Recruited in 2020, Professor Hideg played a central role in strengthening the global reputation of the School conducting research in the areas of gender equality and diversity in the workplace, reactions to and support for diversity policies promoting women and racial minorities, underrepresentation of women in leadership positions, and language/accent and socioeconomic status-based diversity in organizations, nurturing national and international research collaborations through her many journal publications, book chapters, conference proceedings, and popular media publications. She also played a pivotal role in founding the new Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion Working Group (EDI WG) to address anti-Black and anti-Indigenous racism by establishing

a strategic plan that identifies actions to cultivate a vibrant and inclusive academic and work environment at the Schulich School of Business.

In 2019, Professor Hideg was appointed and honoured as a Research Fellow with the Women and Public Policy Program (WAPPP) at the Harvard Kennedy School at Harvard University. This fellowship in particular recognized the impact of Professor Hideg’s research on public and government level policy making in regard to gender equity at work. In addition, Professor Hideg was a Visiting Professor at the University of Western Australia Business School, Católica Lisbon School of Business & Economics (Portugal), and Amsterdam Business School at the University of Amsterdam, where she worked on a range of different projects pertaining to gender equity. For example, at the Amsterdam Business School, she has been engaged in interdisciplinary research on the gender gap in startup evaluation. With her co-author from the Amsterdam Business School, Yuval Engel, along with her former master’s student

currently completing doctoral studies at McGill University, Julie Nguyen, and Frédéric Godart from INSEAD, they demonstrate how benevolent sexist attitudes, which refer to more subjectively positive attitudes toward women in which women are seen as great but weak, undermine women entrepreneurs. They found that benevolent sexist attitudes of evaluators of starts-ups seemingly do not affect evaluations of women’s start-ups, but they give a leg up to men-led start-ups. That is, their work uncovers a fundamentally different manifestation of bias in which men receive unfair advantages while on the surface women are not affected. This is a deeply troubling finding because such advantages that men entrepreneurs receive (for identical ventures as women) are not seen as undermining women and, more broadly, are not seen as problematic, making this kind of bias difficult to address and eradicate.

No matter which benchmark of achievement you use — whether it is the quality of her timely research

on pressing EDI issues, number of publications or number of various awards and accolades, Hideg is a remarkable academic researcher. The award she received is a strong testament to that. In addition to the FT award, her work has received other significant awards including the Distinguished Winner of the Responsible Research in Management Award, co-sponsored by the Community for Responsible Research in Business and Management and the Academy of Management, and the Early Researcher Award from the Ontario Ministry of Research, Innovation, and Science. Finally, attesting to the novelty and importance of her work, her research has been well-funded and attracted over $1,000,000 (CAD) by external funding agencies, including the prestigious Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada and the Ontario Ministry of Research, Innovation, and Science.

Hideg’s paper sought to address a challenge and conundrum faced by working women with a baby on a way in which they often deal with an unfortunate dilemma of whether to take a longer maternity leave or forgo a longer leave to improve their career opportunities.

Schulich Professor Top 5 Scientist in Canada

Dirk Matten

Schulich Professor Dirk Matten has been selected the #5 Top Scientist in Canada by Law and Political Science in Canada . The ranking was published by Research.com, and it contains h-index, publications, and citations values collected on December 6th , 2021.

As a Professor of Sustainability and Hewlett Packard Chair in Corporate Social Responsibility, it was a surprise to Matten that he was ranked so highly on a Law and Political list. However, his work is read, cited, and used by many people in this community.

“I am so happy that the direction I took in my work gets recognized beyond the business and management world,” said Matten, who also held the role of Schulich Associate Dean of Research from 2014 to 2018 and from 2020 to 2022. “As a younger scholar I struggled with the fact that I use political science, sociology, and other theoretical approaches, which are not bread and butter in management to advance these questions of CSR. It made me a little bit of an outlier. But in some ways, it seems to have paid off.”

Schulich Professor Appointed Vice-Chair of Investor Advisory Panel

Moshe A. Milevsky

Schulich Finance Professor Moshe A. Milevsky has recently been appointed Vice-Chair of the Investor Advisory Panel (IAP) of the newly formed Self-Regulation Organization of Canada (SRO).

The SRO oversees investment dealers, mutual fund dealers, and trading activity on Canada’s debt and equity marketplaces with the aim of protecting investors, providing efficient and consistent regulation, and building trust in financial regulation and the people managing their investments. The Panel meets regularly to advise the SRO on regulatory policy, annual priorities, strategic plans, and other initiatives that protect investor interests and promote investor confidence in the securities marketplace.

Professor Milevsky said that he was “honoured and delighted” to be named Vice-Chair and that he was looking forward to viewing the financial industry through a unique regulatory lens, which is “a topic that isn’t emphasized enough in traditional quantitative finance courses” and something he hopes to impart to students. In his role at Schulich, Professor Milevsky teaches BBA and MBA courses on wealth management, which include the topics of investments, insurance, tax planning, risk management, pensions and retirement planning.

Moshe Milevsky’s New Book Shows How to Build Modern Tontine –Schulich School of Business

In Summer 2022, Professor Milevsky’s new book, How to Build a Modern Tontine, became available for purchase in hard copy as well as via Open Access.

“One of the reasons I embarked on this project was because I saw a need for the investment fund industry in Canada to develop solutions for retirees that can complement those offered by the insurance and annuity industry,” said Milevsky.

With the goal of guiding professionals and retirees in more efficient decumulation, the book demonstrates how to build a modern tontine. Milevsky has long been fascinated with tontines, and a few years ago he wrote a book about their origins in the 17th century, but this time the story is about the 21 st century, and how the modern version can be used in RRSPs, RRIFs and retirement portfolios.

The book is technically oriented, employing a cookbook format, featuring R code, and examining retirement planning through a statistical lens. This how-to guide, which is a sequel to his 2020 book Retirement Income Recipes in R, is proving invaluable for retirement planning professionals and advisors, as well as for PhD scholars in retirement planning, quantitative finance, and related fields. In fact, a number of countries around the world have recently allowed tontinelike pension products and have introduced legislation to allow such instruments, and his most recent book is being referenced and used by practitioners for that purpose.

New Schulich Faculty

Olaf Weber

Dr. Olaf Weber has been conducting research in Sustainable Finance since the mid-1990s. During this time, because of newly implemented environmental regulations, lenders were exposed to environmental risks for the first time, because some of the sites they used as collateral were contaminated and became stranded assets. Consequently, systems had to be developed to assess these risks. Dr. Weber was one of the first researchers involved in this kind of risk assessment. His research strives to analyze how the financial industry and businesses can positively contribute to sustainable development. This motivation is based on the important and powerful role finance plays in the world. Prior to joining Schulich, he was a Full Professor and University Research Chair in Sustainable Finance at the University of Waterloo. Furthermore, he is a Senior Research Fellow at the Centre for International Governance Innovations (CIGI). Before coming to Canada, Olaf Weber was a researcher at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Zurich, Switzerland.

Research Interests

• Climate Finance

• Sustainable Credit Risk Management

• Financial Sector Impacts on Sustainable Development

• The Sustainability Case of Business

His research addresses the link between sustainable development issues and financial aspects and looks at issues such as sustainability and climate risks in credit risk management and investment decisions, impact investment, and sustainability-financial regulations. In corporate finance, he analyzes the connection between corporate sustainability performance and financial performance. His research has been published in high impact journals in different fields. He is convinced that finance and the financial industry can be a major driver for a transition to a low carbon economy.

At Schulich, he plans to analyze the impact of environmental, social, and governance (ESG) approaches on sustainable development and climate change as well as the impacts of climate change and other sustainability aspects on firms and the financial industry. Furthermore, Dr. Weber is dedicated to student training and development. He has developed one of the first courses on Sustainable Finance globally. In addition, he has been supervising more than 50 graduate students working on sustainable finance at the master’s and PhD level. Some of these students are now working in the financial industry and in academia and consequently help to transition the industry toward a more sustainable direction.

Abu Shiraz Rahaman

Dr. Abu Shiraz Rahaman joined the Schulich School of Business as Professor of Accounting in July 2023.

Research Interests

• Housing

• Commercial Real Estate

• Urban Public Health

• Transportation

• Land Use

Lyndsey Rolheiser

Lyndsey Rolheiser is Assistant Professor of Real Estate at the Brookfield Centre in Real Estate and Infrastructure. She received a PhD in Urban Economics from MIT, a MA in Economics from Simon Fraser University, and a BSc in Mathematics and Finance from the University of Alberta. Her research explores real estate as a spatial asset and centres questions around the people residing/working within it and regulating it. Dr. Rolheiser’s research interests include neighbourhoods and housing, commercial real estate and climate change, and transportation infrastructure and land use. Dr. Rolheiser employs a variety of methods and theoretical groundings to tackle these topics. She has published in the Journal of Urban Economics, Regional Science and Urban Economics, American Journal of Public Health, Urban Studies, and Urban Geography

Her current work focuses on the effect of air pollution on commercial real estate economic indicators. A substantial amount of past literature investigates the relationship between air pollution and housing, but little is known about the effect on commercial real estate. In a new working paper, Dr. Rolheiser and co-authors find that increasing exposure to air pollution has a negative effect on office market values consistent with the notion that air pollution-induced decreases in commercial real estate values are driven by a reduction in the assets’ productive capacity. Additionally, they document that the negative impact on building-level income is concentrated in the apartment sector, which is consistent with a broad set of local dis-amenity mechanisms identified in previous residential real estate literature.

Recently accepted work by the Journal of Urban Economics asks the question how the longer journeys to work faced by Black commuters evolved in the United States over the last four decades? Dr. Rolheiser and co-authors show that the two factors accounting for the majority of the difference are commute mode and city of residence. While the shift of commute mode from transit to car commuting for Black commuters accounts for one quarter of the decline in the commute time difference over the past forty years, there remains a persistence in the difference in some cities. These cities tend to be large, segregated, congested, and expensive.

Dr. Rolheiser has had the opportunity to teach a wide variety of students— undergraduate economics, planning, and real estate students; masters and Ph.D students in planning, public policy, and real estate; and mid-career executive MBAs. She has developed and taught undergrad and graduate level courses in housing economics and policy; undergraduate real estate principles; and a Ph.D level quantitative methods course.

Xijiang Su

Xijiang Su is Assistant Professor of Accounting at the Schulich School of Business. She received her PhD in Accounting from the Rotman School of Management, University of Toronto. Prior to joining the Ph.D. program at the University of Toronto, she earned a BBA in Accounting (2015) from the Shanghai University of Finance and Economics and worked as a Research Analyst for three years at J.P. Morgan (Shanghai, Hong Kong, and Singapore). She is also a Chartered Financial Analyst (CFA) and Financial Risk Manager (FRM).

Research Interests

• Corporate Governance

• Information Disclosure

• Shareholder Engagement

• Sustainable Investing

Xijiang is an applied financial economist with broad research interests in archival financial accounting. Her research interests centre on corporate governance, information disclosure, shareholder engagement, and sustainable investing. Xijiang is motivated to provide research that is practice-driven, socially meaningful, and interdisciplinary. For example, in one of her previous works, she has shown that management guidance withdrawals during the pandemic are due to economic uncertainty resulting from firms’ exposure to the COVID-19 pandemic rather than poor financial performance. The findings in this work have implications for understanding corporate disclosure practices during periods with heightened economic uncertainty. This study has been published in one of the top journals in accounting — Review of Accounting Studies

In her doctoral thesis, Xijiang examines the role of financial institutions, which are important external capital providers for firms and exert significant influence on various aspects of corporate behaviors. In Chapter 1, she examines the impact of interconnections among institutional investors on credit markets. The study shows that common ownership among contracting parties reduce agency frictions in syndicated loan markets. In Chapter 2, she investigates the disclosure practices of mutual funds and finds that concise performance disclosure attracts higher investor flows, which is consistent with the theme of a recent SEC regulation to provide clear and concise information to mutual fund investors. In ongoing research, Xijiang focuses on applying advanced data analytics tools in academic research such as textual analysis and machine learning techniques. Finally, Xijiang enjoys teaching at different levels, from undergraduate to doctoral and strives to share best practices in business with her students.

Dean Neu

Dean Neu, PhD, CPA, is an Accounting Professor and Co-Director of the CPA Ontario-Schulich Centre for Digital Financial Information. As an accounting scholar, Dean is committed to understanding not only how accounting is used in the public sphere, but also how it can be used to facilitate social accountability. His program of research uses very big data and very small data to study social accountability. With his Schulich colleagues Dr. Everett, Dr. Rahaman, and Dr. Saxton, he utilizes Twitter data sets that consist of millions of data observations to examine how social actors such as individuals, NGOs, and even bots enlist accounting words and numbers to ‘speak truth to power’. Four of their recent studies have been published in the pinnacle business ethics journal, the Journal of Business Ethics. Three of these studies examine social media reactions to the International Consortium of Investigative Journalist’s release of the Panama papers, whereas the fourth study considers how social media was used during the Occupy Wall Street movement to demand social accountability.

Research Keywords

• Accounting –Public Interest

• Business Ethics

Dr. Neu and his colleagues are currently analyzing a dataset of almost 900M tweets that traces the social accountability activities of the original group of Occupy Wall Street participants forward in time in the attempt to understand the persistence of social media-based social accountability activities. Besides this big data research, Dr. Neu continues to study street gang activity and organized extortion processes in Central America — the results of which have been published in the pinnacle Accounting, Organizations and Society journal as well as within Critical Perspectives on Accounting

These two very different types of research are both focused on the role of accounting within the public sphere and both, albeit in different ways, contribute to our understanding of the potential and limitations of accounting words and numbers in encouraging social accountability outcomes. Going forward, Dean would like to use Schulich’s Research Excellence Fellowship to continue investigating these issues.

FinTech and Discrimination in Lending

Principal Investigator: Kiridaran Kanagaretnam

What role, if any, do financial technology (FinTech) firms play in reducing discrimination against racial and/or low-income borrowers? This is an important question to address, given the pervasiveness of discrimination in lending against minorities and low-income borrowers in North America. Kiridaran argues that FinTech, or more specifically, the technology that utilizes alternative data, has the potential to act as one of the solutions to this issue. As traditional banks generally do not use advanced data mining and machine learning technologies, it is reasonable to conjecture that they lack the knowledge of their potential borrowers, predominantly minority and/or low-income borrowers who typically do not have enough ‘standard’ credit information for banks to utilize. FinTech lenders, on the other hand, use such big data and machine learning technology heavily. Hence, Kiridaran expects that they can go beyond colour and class in lending decisions than traditional banks.

Given this context, the objectives of this project are (1) whether FinTech lenders treat minority and low-income borrowers fairly on both quantity (i.e., percentage of loans approved) and pricing (i.e., interest rates) and, (2) whether they rely on other soft information (e.g., through data mining or learning from prior interactions) in their decision making to see past the colour of credit and economic status. This line of research is important to understand whether technological innovations in the financial sector benefit the broader society or help to perpetuate existing inequalities.

The Effects of Coworkers’ Pro-Environmental Behaviour on Employees’ Positive and Negative Responses

Principal Investigator: Ruodan Shao

SSHRC has identified 16 future global challenges that have great implications for all Canadians in the coming years. One of these challenges involves “living within Earth’s carrying capacity,” which highlights the importance for all of us to change our behaviours at work and in life to strive for sustainability. This challenge emphasizes the urgency to pay closer attention to environmental problems such as climate change, limited resources, and pollution (Osbaldiston & Schott, 2011). While governments, environmentalists, corporations, and educational institutions are taking efforts to develop, promote, and advocate for new initiatives aiming at mitigating any negative impacts on the environment, the ultimate success in achieving sustainability and addressing environmental challenges depends on the joint efforts of employees who enact these changes. Indeed, individuals’ pro-environmental behaviour, defined as “individual behaviours contributing to environmental sustainability” (Mesmer-Magnus, Viswesvaran, & Wiernik, 2012), in aggregate, is necessary to achieve positive changes in environmental performance and sustainability (Boiral, Paillé, & Raineri, 2015). To better understand how to promote pro-environmental behavior, Ruodan proposes to examine empirically when and how peers (coworkers) influence the focal employees’ environmentally friendly behaviour at work and in life.

Digital Transformation Maturity Index for Financial Institutions

Principal Investigator: Murat Kristal

The objective of this project is to provide decision makers an aggregate single score of Digital Transformation that measures where financial institutions stand in comparison to their competitors and peers. Over 70% of digital initiatives have not reached their goal (Tabrizi et al., 2019), and the digitization failure rate ranges from 60% to 85% worldwide (Siemens IoT Services, 2019). A major inhibitor to success for such efforts is the awareness and understanding about how an organization’s digital transformation efforts compared to competitors within and beyond their geographically defined market. Without such awareness and understanding, investments may be misdirected or misused for no gain. This research project develops and validates a comprehensive Digital Transformation Maturity Index (DTMI) for financial institutions offering retail banking services. The index is a numerical score aggregated over various component scores assessing, for example, legacy decommissioning and migration to digital channels, cloud infrastructure, AI fraud detection, digital client onboarding, data capture and management, digital product development and customization, and integration of third-party digital products. A single DTMI score will enable the decision makers to assess where their financial institution stands compared to its peers in an unbiased way and to help them make future decisions regarding digital transformation.

Social Networks, Behavioural Biases, and Institutional Investor Trading

Principal

Investigator: Ming Dong

With the advance of communication technology and social network tools such as Facebook and Twitter, people in different locations are increasingly socially connected to each other. Social networks transmit both valuable information and biased opinions, and they can influence market participants in significant ways. The extant literature has gathered some evidence that social connections have a positive to neutral effect on the performance of institutional investors, and a negative effect on retail investors. The proposed research intends to reveal a more prevalent and profound impact of social connection on institutional trading in turbulent market settings.

Ming’s team first intend to examine the effect of social networks on mutual fund manager trading behaviour during one of the most dramatic stock market meltdowns in history — the COVID-19 pandemic outbreak. The hypothesis is that social connection intensifies salience bias associated with COVID fear, and fund managers socially connected to COVID hotspot areas sell more stocks. In subsequent analysis, they will investigate the role of social connectedness during other market events, such as whether fund managers socially connected to their peers unload more risky assets during multiple market crashes.

Canadian Public Sector’s Response to COVID-19 Pandemic: Conflicting Logics, Emotions and Rhetoric

Principal Investigator: Maxim Voronov

The purpose of this research is to study how public sector organizations across Canada — i.e., hospitals, public schools, and universities — responded to provincial authorities’ directives to manage the COVID-19 pandemic. Despite the common threat of COVID-19, each province portrayed the need to meet both population health and economic objectives in different ways and engaged in different types of emotional appeals. In response, public sector organizations responded in a variety of ways to provincial directives, sometimes deviating significantly. Furthermore, both provincial authorities’ directives and public sector organizations’ responses evolved, as evidence about the virus and its effects became better known.

Maxim and the team examine the similarities and differences across provinces, between sectors, and over time. Specifically, they seek to understand: (1) how provincial authorities framed their official statements to elicit particular responses; (2) how provincial public sector organizations responded; and (3) how the statements and actions of both parties shifted over time.

This research will advance the understanding of how organizations manage competing logics of action when their activities are unsettled. They will also pay attention to how emotions influence the field governance and responses of organizations. Their research will offer meaningful practical insights for public sector organizations as they recover from significant strains induced by the pandemic.

Combining Simulation-Decomposition, Simulation-Optimization, and Modelling-to-Generate-Alternatives for Planning Under Uncertainty

Principal Investigator: Julian Scott Yeomans

In “real world” decision-making, it is frequently beneficial to produce a set of dissimilar — yet “good” — alternatives that contribute very different perspectives to the original problems. Such options should possess near-optimal values when evaluated with respect to all known objective(s), but be as maximally different from each other in terms of their decision variable structures. This solution approach is known as modelling-to-generate-alternatives (MGA). Simulation-optimization (SO) is a machine learning-based optimization technique that incorporates uncertainties expressed as probability distributions into its solution approach. Simulation-decomposition (SimDec) is a newly created computational “trick” that enables a visualizable analytical evaluation of the impacts and interactions of highly stochastic models that can be easily understood by both technical specialists and non-technical users. At its core, SimDec enhances the explanatory capabilities of sensitivity analysis by visually “teasing out” and uncovering inherent cause-and-effect relationships between groups of input and output variables. SimDec can significantly enhance the analytical capabilities of users by readily exposing seemingly, a priori, counter-intuitive behaviours. This NSERC-funded research project aims to concatenate the visual analytic facets of SimDec with the optimization features of SO into a novel, hybrid SimDec-SO method that can be used for MGA for planning under uncertainty. Piece of cake!

CIHR OPERATING GRANT: ADDRESSING THE WIDER HEALTH IMPACTS OF COVID-19

Understanding How COVID-19 has Affected Hospital Performance

Principal Investigators: Raha Imanirad and Adam Diamant

The novel coronavirus disease (COVID-19) has caused significant challenges for health systems worldwide and has challenged the efficiency and effectiveness of many health care institutions. With hospitals across Canada and many countries operating at full capacity prior to COVID-19, the pandemic has caused additional operational and financial stress and continues to threaten hospitals’ acute and critical care capacity. This grant will be focused on understanding the impact of COVID-19 on hospital performance across Ontario and the potential heterogeneous effect on different patient populations. Raha and Adam will leverage Canada’s largest hospital data and quality improvement network and use descriptive and causal statistical methods, data envelopment analysis (DEA), and qualitative techniques to evaluate the relative capabilities of hospitals across Ontario in their ability to treat different patient populations before and after COVID-19. Their work will shed light on how COVID-19 has affected the operational processes and quality-of-care standards of Ontario hospitals and determine the extent to which it has exacerbated existing health disparities amongst marginalized patient populations. Their research will provide managerial insights into how health networks can provide more equitable access to care and improve preparedness for future health emergencies.

Her project, in collaboration with Marliese Uhrig-Homburg, Marcel Müller, and Johannes Dinger from Karlsruhe Institute of Technology, focuses on the role of Exchange Traded Funds (ETFs) in the corporate bond market. ETFs are one of the most important financial intermediaries and since their inception in 1993, their assets under management have grown exponentially to reach $7.2 trillion by the end of 2021 in the U.S. alone. Corporate bond ETFs are characterized by two features: (1) most of these ETFs are index-based but hold only a small fraction of the bonds included in the index, and (2) the composition of their portfolios is partially determined by authorized participants (APs) who create and redeem shares of the ETF. Thus, Aleksandra’s research project aims to examine the bargaining power of APs and its effects on bond market fragility.

YORK UNIVERSITY VPRI’S CATALYZING INTERDISCIPLINARY RESEARCH CLUSTERS (CIRC) INITIATIVE

Biomedical Engineering Cluster

Principal Investigator: Moren Lévesque

In November 2022, York University’s Catalyzing Interdisciplinary Research Clusters (CIRC) competition awarded $200,000 over two years to an interdisciplinary team of York professors to investigate “Biomedical Engineering.” The Principal Investigators are Professors Alex Czekanski from the Lassonde School of Engineering, Peter Backx from the Faculty of Science, and Tara Hass from the Faculty of Health. The core team members include Professors Moren Lévesque (Schulich), Giuseppina D’Agostino (Osgoode), John McDermott (Science), Solomon Boakye-Yiadom (Lassonde), Andrew Maxwell (Lassonde), Eleftherios Sachlos (Lassonde), and Hong Zhu Zheng (Lassonde).

Advances in bio-printing have propelled the field of human tissue regeneration from science fiction to reality. Bio-printing refers to ‘3D printing’ of biological tissue structures capable of mimicking normal tissue function. However, major frontier challenges must be overcome to enable functional human tissue bio-printing, including technological (inappropriate shape of the bio-printed tissue leading to mismatching with the host tissue), engineering (non-compatible bio-materials for printing suitable bio-parts), and life science (non-functional cellular composition of the printed bio-structure). The team aims to fully integrate bio-printing, bio-materials, artificial intelligence, engineering methods, vascular cell biology, and biomedical technology to create functional, vascularized bio-materials with improved cell/tissue survival rates that can replace, repair, and reconstruct complex tissues, cardiac patches, and organs.
