These days, AI is the hot new piece of tech on the block. But that doesn’t mean metaverses have disappeared. Immersive, virtual realities are being used to train pilots and surgeons. Management students are taking virtual field trips to factories around the world. And one day, communicating in VR may be as common as taking a Zoom call.

If that happens, what does that mean for how we work? What happens when we present ourselves through customized avatars, rather than a true image of ourselves? Can VR help facilitate more personal, meaningful connections between coworkers? Or will it just be a new way to monitor workers and absorb them into the surveillance economy?

Eric Dicaire, Delve’s managing editor, discusses with Professor Emma Vaast. The conversation begins with a simple question: Why should we care about metaverses right now? They discuss the potential use cases of immersive platforms, what it could mean for how we work, and what the future holds for metaverse development.

These days, even grocery chains are data companies, as much as they are food retailers. But in the push towards data-driven decision making, how do we know we’re actually using our data correctly?

This week, we’re talking to Najib Mozahem. He’s an assistant professor of information systems at McGill University and a data scientist at Air Canada. He gives us the rundown on how data can be misleading and what you can do to pull the best information possible.

How can supply chains react to a chaotic world? When traditional supply chain models fail, what’s left for us to try? Can we trust AI to help navigate the uncertainty?

Chris Tang, professor emeritus in supply chain management at UCLA, believes AI can make supply chains both lean and resilient. Mehmet Gumus, Professor of Operations Management at McGill University, asks him how.

Indeed, global disruptions have exposed weaknesses in traditional supply chain models. Lean networks are too vulnerable to disruptions. Redundant ones are more resilient, but can no longer keep up with the pace and scale of change. So where do we go from here?

They begin their conversation with an overview of the current challenges facing supply chains and the limits of lean and resilient models. Then they explore how AI might help navigate this uncertainty. And finally, they discuss the role of human decision-makers in supply chains orchestrated through AI.

Professor Mehmet Gumus hosts this episode.

The last time you saw a doctor, did you feel cared for? Or did you feel depleted?

Your answer is about more than customer service satisfaction. It can actually have important impacts on your health.

This week, Dr Anoop Kumar joins Professor Saku Mantere on the McGill Delve podcast. Dr Kumar is an emergency physician, and he highlights an important blind spot in healthcare. Physicians often neglect to see patients as whole, emotionally complex people – and leave them feeling uncared for as a result. And more than that, in failing to see wholeness, they close the door on treatments that can promote healing far beyond the doctor’s office.

In this conversation, Dr Kumar and Professor Mantere talk about what it means to treat the whole patient, why it’s so rare in healthcare, and why we should re-orient healthcare towards wholeness.

To fully take advantage of green technologies, many systems may have to change. And that’s not a bad thing. Green technologies open new possibilities for global production systems—and they could quickly make our current systems look outdated.

This week on the McGill Delve podcast, Professors Michael Raynor (Ivey Business School) and Sanjith Gopalakrishnan (McGill University) make the case for disruptive innovation in our systems. They talk about climate change through the lens of disruption, why “scale” shouldn’t be the only metric for innovation, and how climate-friendly production systems are achievable with less compromise than you might think.

This week, we’re talking to an expert about how to build anti-racist public organizations.

Alicia Boatswain-Kyte is a social worker and Assistant Professor of Social Work at McGill University. She has published several studies about Black people’s experiences with healthcare, youth services, the justice system, and more. She explains why these institutions often fall short of meeting the needs of Black people. She also challenges us to think differently about how to deliver public services.

The secret, as she explains, is to empower communities – and to let go of racial capitalism.

Eric Dicaire, Delve’s managing editor, hosts this episode. In this conversation we talk about the Black experience when interfacing with public organizations, why public institutions can be so reluctant to change, and the difference between organizing through community and organizing through capitalism.

How do men and women react differently to management? Why do some management practices contribute to gender inequity, even if they’re applied equally across all workers? What can managers do to better support workers of all identities, while maintaining productivity and quality of work?

Roman Galperin, Associate Professor of Organizational Behaviour at McGill University, explores the evidence.

Galperin recently published a study examining how men and women respond to increased monitoring and incentives from their managers. His findings show that, even when applied equally to all workers, some management tactics can further entrench gender inequities. He explains why.

Eric Dicaire, Delve’s managing editor, hosts this episode.

Managers everywhere are using AI to reimagine human-made systems, such as healthcare, supply chains, and finance. But today’s podcast guests remind us that art still has much to teach us – and we better not forget it.

Laurette Dubé is a Professor Emerita in Consumer Psychology at McGill University. Paul Yachnin is a Tomlinson Professor of Shakespeare Studies, also at McGill University. They call on managers and leaders to engage with the arts to solve complex problems and keep humanity at the centre of their work.  

In today’s podcast, we’re doing exactly that. With host Eric Dicaire, Professors Dubé and Yachnin turn to Shakespeare’s Macbeth for lessons on how to change the world. What does Macbeth’s history of violence teach us about healing trauma? How is the murder of King Duncan connected to the manosphere? What does Macbeth’s story teach us about morality and the pursuit of power?

This podcast is a preview of the upcoming event, “Thinking Inside Macbeth,” happening on January 28, 2026. Details are here.

AI in education has been the subject of scrutiny for some time now. How do we know students are properly engaging with the course material? What will happen to their critical thinking if AI writes their papers for them? Will AI lead to intellectual atrophy?

In this episode of the McGill Delve podcast, we sit down with Professor Genevieve Basselier, the VP of Programs at the Desautels Faculty of Management at McGill University. She oversees all of the teaching in the faculty, and she thinks that AI could be an opportunity for professors and students to enhance learning – but only if it’s handled correctly.

In this conversation, we explore how AI challenges the role of the professor in the classroom, raises questions about the value of reading and critical thinking, and how professors can leverage this technology for more equitable classrooms.

Today on the Delve podcast, we’re talking about job hopping.

How long should you stay in a job? When will a prospective employer penalise you for switching jobs too often? How should you plan my career accordingly? Common questions for career-oriented people.

Thankfully, Professors Matissa Hollister and Xavier St-Denis looked into it. In a recent study, they measured the impact of job hopping on employability. And their findings dispel some myths around job hopping, and they provide crucial insights on how to build a steady and successful career.

Eric Dicaire, Delve’s managing editor, hosts this episode. Matissa Hollister is a professor of Organisational Behaviour at McGill University. Xavier St-Denis is an assistant professor at the Institut de la recherche scientifique in Montreal. Together they discuss:

-         What are some commonly held beliefs about job-hopping?

-         Why might employers look dimly on job hoppers?

-         Why are some occupations more penalised for job hopping than others?

-         How long should employees stay in a job to avoid being penalised?

A leader’s approach to hierarchy can have profound strategic implications for their organisation. In this special feature, with the help of experts from McGill University, we’ll explore the strategic opportunities that come from engaging employees up and down the ladder – and what it means to have a hierarchy in the first place, and what it would mean to abandon them entirely.

We start with Professor Henry Mintzberg, exploring how insights from across an organization can transform its strategy. Then, with help from Professor Quy Huy, we explore how emotional awareness is key to unlocking this strategic potential. And finally, we pull from anarchist perspectives to understand how hierarchies – or the abandonment of them – reflects organisations’ values and identity.

Eric Dicaire, Managing Editor at McGill Delve, wrote this story and narrated this episode.

Price and quality were once considered the dominant forces behind consumer decisions. But, according to recent findings by Siddhanth Mookerjee, Assistant Professor of Marketing at McGill University, this isn’t the full story. Personal values and ideology play an increasingly important role in how consumers make purchasing decisions – particularly when it comes to supporting minority-owned businesses.

In this episode of the McGill Delve podcast, Professor Mookerjee shares findings from his latest study, “Reparative Consumption: The Role of Racial Identity and White Guilt in Consumer Preferences.” He walks us through how white guilt influences consumer choices – even more than other factors like political affiliation, gender, or race. He also discusses the value of consumerism as a reparative act for businesses that experienced discrimination, and how companies should navigate questions of race when engaging with consumers. Eric Dicaire, Delve’s managing editor, hosts this episode.

Humanitarian logistics are like planning the Olympic Games, but you don’t know where or when it will happen, or how many people will be affected, says Professor Harwin de Vries of the Rotterdam School of Management. This poses a massive operational challenge: how do you create an effective humanitarian response in such unpredictable conditions?

Oil producers are the largest greenhouse gas emitters in the world. Will they stop in time to prevent the worsening effects of climate change?

On this episode of the McGill Delve podcast, two experts in management and sustainability discuss the end of oil. Professor Ryan Kellogg, of the University of Chicago, thinks oil divestment could happen in the next 75 years. Professor Javad Nasiry, director of the Sustainable Growth Initiative at McGill University, asks him why.

Our conversation begins with a question from today’s host, Professor Nasiry: As oil demand decreases, will oil companies slowly stop producing, or will they speed up production to maximize short-term profits? They discuss both possible outcomes and the changing economic and political landscapes that will shape them.

A special thank you to Professor Nasiry for guest-hosting this episode! And to Professor Ryan Kellogg for joining us from the University of Chicago.

With businesses everywhere looking to AI to enhance their work, it’s no surprise that the public sector is considering it, too. But is this a good idea? For Professor Renee Sieber, it’s complicated. AI has a lot of potential for public good by improving public transport systems or balancing electrical grids. But she’s concerned that, if we’re not careful, we might lose humanity in our government services.

Renee Sieber is an Associate Professor in the department of geography at McGill University. In this interview, she walks us through how government applications of AI should be treated differently from the private sector. She also shares her perspective on the opportunities and perils of using AI in the public sector, and why we should be careful with how we apply this new technology.

What if your entire medical history travelled with you seamlessly, with just a click of a button? That’s the idea behind MedLink, a blockchain company dreamed up by three students completing their Master’s of Management in Finance at McGill University. Philippe Benjamin-Duranceau is one of its founding members. On this episode of the McGill Delve podcast, he walks us through how blockchain could make transferring medical records as easy as sending an email – an innovation that could save time and lives.

Host Eric Dicaire sits down with Philippe Benjamin-Duranceau, a soon-to-be graduate of McGill University’s Master’s of Management in Finance, and Professor Katrin Tinn, Associate Professor of Finance at McGill University. They talk about Philippe’s new company, MedLink, and how it plans to use blockchain technology to simplify the transfer of medical records from one location to the next.

MedLink was one of the winners of last year’s Innovation for Impact competition, which invites Master’s and undergraduate students to create for-profit and non-profit entrepreneurial initiatives related to the UN’s Environmental, Social, and Governance goals. Students present their ideas to a panel of local business leaders, who decide the winners. Winners receive funding to further develop their initiative. Details are here.

A new season of the Delve podcast begins! To kick things off, we’re asking: Is meaningful work a myth?

For some, their job provides nothing more than a steady paycheck. For others, it’s a deep source of meaning and satisfaction. Why is one worker disengaged when the other is not? Is it possible to pull someone out of dissatisfaction and help them find meaning again?

Mike James Ross thinks so. He’s an MBA graduate from McGill University and a PhD student at Concordia University, studying the meaning of work. He’s also a Transformational Leadership Advisor at the consulting firm Egon Zehnder.

It took him a while to discover what made his work meaningful to him. Now, as an educator, researcher, and consultant, he helps others find fulfilment in their careers.

In this conversation, he and host Professor Saku Mantere explore the meaning of work and why humans work at all. Mike also shares his personal journey from finance lawyer to academic, how he salvaged meaning from his work when he was at his unhappiest, and he offers advice on how you can chart your own path towards fulfilment.

Shakespeare was not only a fantastic playwright, but he was also an entrepreneur. And his life and work have much to say about leadership and the perils of greed, power, and corruption – insights that are as relevant today as they were in the 16th century.

This episode of the Delve podcast begins with an overview of Shakespeare's life as an entrepreneur. Then, guest Antoni Cimolino and host Saku Mantere delve into the bard's lessons in leadership, with examples from Shakespeare's plays. They conclude the conversation by linking Shakespeare's lessons to today's context.

When COVID-19 hit the world in 2020, it showed us the strain under which emergency departments, long-term care homes, and other vital services were struggling. And the challenges haven’t gone away. In Canada, one in five people doesn’t have a family doctor they see regularly. Emergency wait times can be as high as 22 hours. Less than a third of people who need a specialist see one within a month. And while these numbers cover the situation in Canada, countries around the world face similar challenges.

Sustainable improvements to large, bureaucratic health systems won’t happen overnight. But it’s not impossible. Brazil spent the past 50 years restructuring its health innovation capabilities to address the scourge of Neglected Tropical Diseases affecting its citizens. And in the DRC, going back to management basics helped maximise healthcare spending while improving patient outcomes. When it comes to improving healthcare, these countries show how, at micro and macro levels, we can make changes for the better.

Professor Karl Moore and Gabriele Hartshorne-Mehl co-authored the forthcoming book We’re All Ambiverts Now: Introverts, Ambiverts, and Extroverts in the C-Suite. They interviewed over 750 CEOs to understand their personality types and how that affects their work. With host Eric Dicaire, they share their most surprising findings, talk about the strengths and weaknesses of extroverted and introverted leaders, and explain why good leaders should adopt qualities of both – in other words, become ambiverts.

Sadri and Rouzbayani sit down with managing editor Eric Dicaire to discuss the role synthetic data can play in medical research. They explain how Carez AI’s platform produces realistic images based on real-world medical data, enabling research on rare diseases where real image datasets are limited. They also explore the startup journey, from pitching to investors to validating their model with medical professionals.

By generating images that are feasible, high-fidelity, and scientifically grounded, Carez AI hopes to provide foundational infrastructure for life sciences research. And while their current focus is healthcare, the platform could eventually support research in other fields that depend on biology images.

How can AI-generated data responsibly support critical scientific work? What safeguards are needed to maintain accuracy and integrity? And what motivates two young founders to take on this challenge? Learn more in this forward-looking conversation on Delve.

TODAY’S GUESTS

Rayan Sadri is the CEO and co-founder of Carez AI, a synthetic medical imaging startup. He is a McGill University alumnus with a background in computer science.

Statistics Canada cites financial challenges as the leading cause of homelessness in Canada. Other factors, like health issues and domestic abuse, can also affect a person’s housing situation. But more than that, for Professor Jayne Malenfant and Hannah Brais, homelessness is a symptom of a flawed social and political system.

Malenfant is an assistant professor of Education at McGill University. Brais is a PhD candidate and research coordinator at the Old Brewery Mission – Montreal’s largest organisation serving people without homes. In a paper, Malenfant and Brais explored an unconventional approach to addressing the housing crisis: anarchism. Today on the McGill Delve podcast, they join our editor-in-chief Saku Mantere to talk about it.

Our conversation begins with an overview of what anarchism is and isn’t. Saku, Jayne, and Hannah then unpack the history of anarchism as a tool for social justice and reform. Then they explore how anarchism can help us reimagine how we manage social institutions, such as housing and education.

TODAY’S GUESTS

Professor Jayne Malenfant (they/them) is from Kapuskasing, Ontario, but has been in Tio'tiá:ke/Montreal since 2016. Their areas of interest are community-led research, educational and housing justice, and anarchist/social justice education. Their current research focuses on the educational experiences of young people and adults navigating homelessness, the engagement of people with lived and living experience of housing precarity in advocacy and research, and the experiences of Two-Spirit, trans, and non-binary communities navigating housing precarity and institutional inaccess.

Hannah Brais (she/her) is a PhD candidate in geography at McGill University and a research coordinator at the Old Brewery Mission – Montreal’s largest organization serving unhoused people. Within this position, she participates in several academic-community partnerships and oversees multiple research projects focused on developing an evidence base for better homeless programming.

ABOUT THE HOST

Saku Mantere (he/him) is McGill Delve’s editor-in-chief and a Professor of Strategy and Organization at the Desautels Faculty of Management at McGill University. His research focuses on strategic organizations; on questions such as what it is that makes organizations strategic and how strategic management affects organizations. He is particularly interested in strategic change, middle management agency and strategy discourse, as well as in methodological issues in management studies, such as the practice of qualitative research and reasoning in theorizing about organizations.

Once upon a time, creativity was your superpower. Your ambition to succeed was unmatched and your creative drive was your guiding light. But now, after years of navigating deadlines, expectations, and maybe even a few hard-won successes, you find yourself wondering: Where did that creative spark go?

When creativity feels distant—lost to routine, burnout, or the sheer weight of responsibilities and expectations—how do you find your way back to it? For Ann-Marie MacDonald, acclaimed novelist, actor, and playwright, the secret lies in curiosity.

In this episode of the Delve podcast, host and managing editor Eric Dicaire sits down Ann-Marie MacDonald to talk creativity. Ann-Marie shares her take on the creative act, and how it changed from youthful rage and zealousness to a skilled craft. She also shares how she approaches her work and incorporates curiosity into everything she does. Ann-Marie and Eric then apply her insights to entrepreneurial and managerial contexts, so that you too can bring more creativity into your life.

Ann-Marie MacDonald is a renowned novelist, playwright, and actor, known for such works as Fayne (2022), The Way the Crow Flies (2003), and Fall on Your Knees (1996). She has also performed in several plays and films, and has written a few of her own. She was also the Richler Artist in Residence at the McGill University English Department in 2024.

Rob Glew is an assistant professor of Operations Management at McGill University. In this podcast interview, pulling on his own research and other cornerstone studies, he shares how small management choices can impact people’s motivations to do good.

Eric Dicaire interviews Rob Glew in this podcast episode. They begin by defining pro-social behaviour and how it breaks conventional economic wisdom. Then they discuss one of Glew’s studies, where he identified the impact of a small operational change on COVID-19 self-testing in the UK. They wrap the conversation with more examples of pro-social behaviour, how managers can encourage them, and why paying people isn’t enough to make them do good.

Tony Masi is a Professor of Industrial Relations and Organizational Behaviour at McGill University. In this podcast interview, he shows us unions attach themselves to social movements that benefit both their members and society as a whole, which has led to some of the biggest social changes of the 20th century. But this kind of work isn’t easy. If they want to win, union leaders need vision, political acumen, and a lot of friends.

In this podcast interview, Professor Tony Masi joins Eric Dicaire to discuss unions, social ties, and how they impact society. They begin by talking about the role of unions in some of the major victories of the past century. Then they get into how unions align themselves with other social organizations, and what kind of tensions this can cause for union leaders. They conclude the conversation with a look at the current state of union membership and behaviour in North America.

On the Delve podcast, Professor Rohini Jalan from Desautels Faculty of Management explains the concept of organizational body work as “purposeful efforts to shape bodies, embedded in organizations”. She further explains that workplaces and “its managers, its employees, its organizations have systems that exert efforts intentionally to shape bodies in some form or fashion”. In some industries, body work is explicitly expected and performed, such as the military, sports, and sex work industries. However, in other industries, such as academic institutions, STEM fields, and the creative industry, body work is implicitly carried out on a daily basis.

On the Delve podcast, Desautels Professor Karl Moore and Lightspeed and Age of Union Founder Dax Dasilva discuss communication beyond traditional hierarchies, the value of reverse mentorship and receiving feedback, and what real equality, diversity, and inclusion can look like in an organization.

In Moore’s new book, Generation Why: How Boomers Can Lead and Learn from Millennials and Gen Z, he posits a philosophy that has played out in real life: that people over 45, with a university degree, were taught a modern worldview in their education, while people under 35 with a university degree were taught a postmodern worldview. In his investigation, he challenges traditional views of who has truth and knowledge and why.

Hear Moore and Dasilva share their thoughts on these worldviews, their experiences, and how to engage, manage, and learn from people across the generational spectrum.

On the Delve podcast, Alain Pinsonneault, Desautels Professor of Information Systems and IMASCO Chair in Information Technology, and fellow Desautels Professor of Information Systems Emmanuelle Vaast examine how digital technology enables and threatens occupational identity—and how data scientists cope with the associated tensions.

“Information technology is affecting several dimensions of work: it's creating new jobs, it's eliminating jobs, it's profoundly changing existing jobs,” says Pinsonneault.

“Many occupations are very affected by digital technologies today,” explains Vaast. “What we can see for data scientists is going to be seen for many other occupations: these dynamics of identities; the need to constantly redefine what we do; how different are we from other occupations; are we making ourselves obsolete? It's not a question of if it's going to happen, but when it's going to happen, and how it will happen.”

On the Delve podcast, Desautels accounting professor Brian Wenzel discusses the role of accounting and accounting research in facilitating how organizations reach their sustainability goals. For one, sustainability approaches and new global standards could be integrated into accounting practices to encompass all aspects of an organization’s performance, from the big picture to the bottom line.

“Accounting perhaps has been part of the problem with sustainability because accounting has led to short-termism inside organizations,” says Wenzel. “Next quarter’s profits are much more tangible than something that will happen five or 10 years down the road. Even if making a sacrifice now will lead to a greater good in a decade, that's harder to quantify because it's so far in the future. Accounting maybe has been part of the problem but could also solve it.”

This episode of the podcast is a collaboration between Delve, the McGill Sustainable Growth Initiative and its Director and Desautels Professor Javad Nasiry. The Sustainable Growth Initiative is also co-sponsoring the conference.

 For many, these digital technologies and even more specialized innovations provided a kind of utopian hope for large-scale societal change. In reality, the acceleration of digital innovation across sectors and the world has disrupted business as usual and exposed systemic challenges and inequalities. This is what Cambridge professor Michael Barrett points out on the Delve podcast as he discusses his latest research examining the possibilities and limits of digital innovation.

“Any crisis will disrupt work practices in ways that challenge routines that have a need for new ways of operating,” explains Barrett. “We have seen how at scale, digital platforms allow us to engage in activities, whether it's telemedicine, whether it's learning opportunities or sales meetings through Zoom, many things that we knew were possible, but didn't scale anywhere near that. But we must also always look at the tension and the critical issues that might produce new risks, in that these platforms are becoming increasingly indispensable and overdependence on them raises concerns.”

“With the scaling deep approach, the more locally embedded approach, because you keep working with local partners, utilizing local resources, and making connections in those local contexts, your services and products become very, very meaningful locally,” explains Anna Kim. “But it doesn't actually mean a lot outside of Detroit or outside of a certain neighborhood. So it actually anchors them even more deeply in the local context.”

“We have been lending the same way to small and medium-sized enterprises now for decades,” says Beaumont. “FinTechs constitute an innovation in the way we lend to firms. This is exciting because it means that finally we have invented a new business model to provide funds to small and medium-sized businesses… What we observed is that, in a sense, FinTechs fill the void left by banks when banks lend less often to small and medium-sized businesses.”

In a big-picture Delve podcast on crucial management, leadership, and organizational issues, Desautels Professor and preeminent management scholar Henry Mintzberg talks with Desautels Professor and Delve Editor-in-Chief Saku Mantere. Their conversation launches the fourth season of the Delve podcast, dedicated to thought leadership and critical thinking in management research at the McGill Desautels Faculty of Management.

Mintzberg changed the management landscape with his concepts of strategies being something that people did together in organizations, that strategies could emerge from collective learning rather than be prescribed as formal models, explains Mantere, whose own work focuses on strategic organizations and change.

“Strategies are learned: you try things, you do different things, you hit something, you discover something you didn't expect,” says Mintzberg. In recent years, Mintzberg has expanded his research to explore broader, timely, and pressing societal questions that tackle climate change, education, political divides, and social inequities. As Mantere explains in his introduction to the podcast, Mintzberg’s research showed that strategy emerges not only within organizations but between organizations of very different kinds—NGOs, firms, policy organizations, governments—all these have to come together if we think about these grand challenges of society.

“Country-by-country reporting requires large multinational corporations to file a form, disclosing global allocation of activities and profits in all jurisdictions a corporation calls home,” explains Joshi. For example, Apple would file this form in the United States, RBC would file in Canada, but the U.S. and Canada would take that form and would share it with the tax administrations of every country where these companies have operations. For companies like Apple, that's almost every country.”

“It’s a pretty significant problem,” she continues. “The estimate can run into hundreds of billions of dollars globally, and this has been growing over the years.” In 2018, the international monetary fund estimated this to be around 500 to 600 billion, more than many countries’ GDPs put together.

“AI is a cutting-edge tool that encodes the status quo,” says Hollister. “The hope is that the toolkit will make organizations think more about why they're using AI in the first place. It's important to still allow the human to make the final decision, but also provide them with guidelines about how they should be using the system and how they need to also document their decision.”

“My philosophical take on sustainability is something like this,” Nasiry explains. “At the moment, our approach is to say that we have a profitability framework, so we are profit maximizers as a corporation, and sustainability comes as a constraint shackle of what we can do; it becomes a nuisance. Hopefully if we can change this into a framework of sustainability within which we are trying to maximize the profit, then we will have a much more sustainable business model.”

Today, Mikula is able to pinpoint one of her health care centre’s biggest takeaways: “If you can create a space for those teams, if you can arm them with the resources to be effective, and if you can make sure that people come to those teams knowing that they will have trust and psychological safety and that they're empowered to make some decisions, there's a lot that you can do. How do you keep that going now alongside the hierarchy? How do you make space for that in the hierarchy? It’s the main lesson that we're still trying to implement in the hospital.”

Desautels Faculty of Management Professor John-Paul Ferguson investigates the question of whether members of specific social groups may be more likely to patent inventions targeted toward their own group's needs and interests. He and his colleagues at Harvard Business School and the Universidad de Navarra in Barcelona share their findings in research paper, "Who do We Invent For? Patents by Women Focus More on Women's Health, but Few Women Get to Invent," published in the journal Science.

In this episode of the Delve podcast, we talk with Professor Ferguson about his research and bring in the first-hand experience of two professionals who recently patented inventions in the field of health care. Dr. Lucy Gilbert is a surgeon, McGill professor and the Director of Gynecologic Oncology and Director of the Women’s Health Research Unit at McGill University and McGill University Health Centre (MUHC). She is the founder of the DOvEE clinics in Montreal, which stands for Diagnosing Ovarian and Endometrial Cancers Early, and she and her team have developed a new genetic pap-test called DOvEEgene for detecting gynecologic cancers very early before they even cause the symptoms that indicate a serious treat to life.

Our other guest, Negin Ashouri, is an engineer, computer scientist and young biomedical entrepreneur who offers another perspective on the issue of women and biomedical invention. She is Chief Executive Officer & Co-Founder of FemTherapeutics, a company that applies artificial intelligence to the field of medicine in her team’s recent invention, created to meet an unmet need in gynecological medicine: a 3D-printed pessary device that processes measurements by a doctor to design a pessary with the optimal fit. She recently received the prestigious Mitacs Change Agent Entrepreneur Award for her and her team’s work.

This strategic lens encourages organizations to examine their own digital ecosystems within a climate of constant change, from the multiple technologies co-existing within an organization to the potential paths toward knowledge and innovation. “If you look at an organization that wants to grow in an environment that is uncertain, a lot of experimentation can be done very inexpensively using digital tools,” says Chan. “See the technology that you already have and strategically use that technology.”

In episode 2 of the second season of The "New Normal" Delve podcast series, Professor Dror Etzion from McGill University’s Desautels Faculty of Management joins journalist Dave Kaufman to discuss the role of small and medium sized enterprises (SMEs) in the global fight for climate sustainability.

“Sustainability is often a source of innovation in good business ideas,” says Etzion. “The question is not whether people are aware and believe that climate sustainability is an issue, but whether they're comfortable in engaging with it wearing the hat of a business owner.”

In his conversation with Kaufman, Etzion Illustrates the power of a “peer-to-peer inspiration model of change” for this diverse and competitive community of entrepreneurs. He also outlines the technologies that are helping SMEs thrive and how the McGill-founded PIVOT action research project and online social platform is encouraging SMEs to take climate action today and for the future.

“So many CEOs were against remote work,” says Reyt. “A year into the pandemic they were saying, ‘Well, we're going to do hybrid work. We're going to work several days a week from home, several days a week from the office, or whatever mix you find.’ That creates new challenges as well, because now you have to figure out how you’re going to manage people in this new work environment."

"There have been a lot of interesting challenges and a lot of evolution in the way CEOs have been thinking about it," Reyt continues. "But most importantly, it's been a radical shift in the way we consider the relationship between the organization and the employee, and the relationship between the employee and their work.”

Speaking to Delve's Robyn Fadden, McGill University Desautels Faculty of Management Professor Daphne Demetry discusses the gourmet food truck trend that took off in 2008 and shows no sign of slowing down. An entrepreneurship experience high in creativity, culture, and community and low in risk (and possibly revenue), gourmet food trucks illuminate how authenticity and associated identities are constructed by both business owners and consumers alike. This drive for authenticity sparks broader questions about personal and collective identity creation in urban entrepreneurship and beyond.
