4 / REPORT TO COMMUNITY 2013


This new academic year represents the start of our 47th year at the Haskayne School of Business. On July 1, 1967, what was then known as the University of Calgary Faculty of Management opened its doors to young men and women interested in learning the skills of business management, with a distinct focus on economics and accounting.

MESSAGE FROM THE DEAN

Jim Dewald, Dean, Haskayne School of Business



We have come a long way from that start, yet we are still focused on the critical importance of exceptional business management education grounded in primary, original research.

Over the past three years, the Haskayne School of Business has crafted a strategic direction that I believe will position us to be among the top business schools in Canada. In many ways, our strategy is simple and a natural next step. We seek to build on the tremendous success of Calgary’s business community, and develop pinnacle programs in the three areas that exemplify the Calgary business community spirit:

1. Ethical Leadership

2. Entrepreneurship and Innovation

3. Energy

This year we will ramp up our activities in both our leadership and entrepreneurship centres, and establish a new Energy Centre. We are entering a transformative period for our school, one approached with fully opened eyes and a keen sense of the ever-increasing pressures of competition and resource constraints. As in the past, the Calgary community is ready, willing, and fully committed to assisting our growth. We have been blessed with active alumni, and a generous, yet demanding business community. Elsewhere in this report you will read of the incredible contributions of our many supporters.

I believe that Team is an acronym that means “Together Everyone Achieves More”. This is so true at Haskayne, and more than anything, I want to thank our very dedicated faculty and staff. We are pursuing a truly shared vision of success, through the collaborative efforts of so many of our team members. I feel blessed and privileged to be among this outstanding group, and honoured to be their representative.

Thank you to everyone reading this report for your continued and extremely important support of the Haskayne School of Business.

Jim Dewald, PhD Dean

Beginning with the selection of our first Dean, it was clear that a high attention to top quality scholarship would be important to our school. Before being appointed Dean, James M.A. Robinson was the executive secretary of the American Association of Collegiate Business Schools (AACSB), the preeminent business school accreditation institute. From our very founding, best of class research and scholarship have been critical components of our success. Dr. Robinson set four objectives that are still relevant:

1. To develop conceptual understanding – the capacity to perceive the whole of an idea,

2. To provide a foundation for the development of professional competence and the ability to analyze and synthesize,

3. To provide a logical approach to decision-making and to recognize, anticipate, and solve problems, and

4. To impel the development of organizational skill, skill in interpersonal relationships, and skill in communication.

Jim Dewald was appointed Dean of the Haskayne School of Business effective April 1, 2013. He is also an associate professor in the Strategy and Global Management area.

Dewald holds a BSc (Civil Engineering) and MBA from the University of Alberta, and a PhD (Strategy & Global Management) from the University of Calgary. Prior to entering academe, he was active in the Calgary business community as the CEO of two major real estate development companies and a leading local engineering consulting practice, and as president of a tech-based international real estate brokerage company. He was recognized as Calgary Citizen of the Year (1999) and is an honourary member of the Appraisal Institute of Canada. Currently, Dewald sits on the board of Boardwalk REIT, the West Campus Development Trust, and the Certified General Accountants Association of Alberta.

Last year was a landmark year for the Haskayne School of Business. Not only did it mark the 45th anniversary of the school but also commemorated the 10-year anniversary of proudly carrying Richard F. Haskayne’s name.

FROM SMALL TOWN ALBERTA

He came from humble beginnings. Growing up in small town Gleichen, Alberta, Haskayne worked alongside his parents and older brother at the family-run butcher shops in Gleichen and Bassano – learning early on, the importance of compassion, honesty and the value of hard work – lessons that would serve as the foundation for his future success.

After graduating high school, Haskayne went on to receive a Bachelor of Commerce degree from the University of Alberta in 1956 and qualified as a Chartered Accountant in 1959.

Discovering opportunities in the rapidly advancing energy industry, Haskayne joined Hudson’s Bay Oil and Gas as supervisor of corporate accounting, later moving on to hold top leadership positions in prominent Canadian oil and gas companies including Interhome Energy, Interprovincial Pipe Line, Home Oil, NOVA Corporation, Fording Coal and TransCanada Corporation.

Throughout his career Haskayne earned a reputation for upholding the highest standard of personal and professional ethics. His growing reputation led to his appointment as chair of the Board of Governors of the University of Calgary in 1990 - a position he held until 1996. He was also recognized for his ideals in 1997 as an Officer of the Order of Canada; the University of Calgary conferred an Honorary Degree on him the same year.

His mantra: “At the end of the day, the most important thing is your reputation.” In his personal life, he is known for his passion for, and dedication to, many community, health and arts organizations, the Alberta Children’s Hospital Foundation, the Calgary Philharmonic Orchestra and the United Way, to name a few.

LEGENDARY CONTRIBUTION

In 2002 Richard (Dick) Haskayne generously gifted $16 million in funds and land holdings to the University of Calgary, resulting in the naming of the business school and establishing the Haskayne Endowment for Achieving Excellence. The endowment was created to fund professorships, scholarships and bursaries to attract and retain the best and brightest faculty and students, along with supporting emerging needs in pursuit of building one of the top business schools in the world.

At the time, Haskayne’s donation was the largest charitable contribution in the history of the university, and one of the largest gifts to any business school in Canada. Upon the sale of the land in 2006, the Haskayne School of Business realized significantly greater value from the gift than originally anticipated growing the Haskayne Endowment for Achieving Excellence markedly. Today, the endowment is one of the university’s largest, at almost $30 million.

THE HASKAYNE LEGACY



INTEGRITY, DEDICATION AND GENEROSITY OF SPIRIT

His 2002 benefaction gift was not Haskayne’s first contribution to the school. In 1996, he created the Lee Haskayne Bursary, in memory of his first wife, with a vision to make students’ lives more financially stable, providing them with opportunities to prove their talents. It is an award close to his heart and stems from both Dick and Lee’s rural roots. Each year 10 students from rural areas are bestowed $4,000 based on academic merit and financial need.

In 2001, the University of Calgary and the Institute of Chartered Accountants of Alberta recognized Haskayne’s leadership by creating the Richard F. Haskayne Chair in Accounting, a significant role that includes both leadership in scholarly research and meaningful interaction with the business and professional accounting industry.

Most recently, Haskayne contributed the seed funding for the Global Energy Executive MBA program. An ardent supporter, Haskayne donated $1 million to the design, development, creation of scholarships, and roll-out of the program.

Above and beyond the financial contributions, it is the personal and focused time Haskayne spends with students, faculty and staff that makes him the beloved face of the school and the University of Calgary. By way of example, at the annual undergraduate year-end business banquet, Haskayne and his wife Lois are typically the last two to leave having spent the entire evening in conversation with each and every student who lines up to speak with them.

INNOVATION IN TEACHING AND LEARNING

A new, senior management position – associate dean of teaching and learning – has been established to support faculty in improving teaching methods, increasing student engagement in class, facilitating experiential learning and serving as a conduit for the increased use of new technologies in the classroom. As of July 1, 2013 Sherry Weaver has been appointed to the position.

It’s a natural fit for Weaver. Most recently she was assistant dean of leadership development in the school’s Canadian Centre for Advanced Leadership in Business. She has undergraduate degrees in both engineering and education; an MBA from Haskayne and is currently finishing a PhD in industrial engineering.

Weaver has been a sessional instructor at the business school since 1999 in operations management and, among other accomplishments, assisted in the development of the Business Process Management (BPMA) concentration. She also has experience teaching in public and private school systems at the elementary and secondary levels.

“This new position is in alignment with the University’s focus on innovation and quality in teaching and learning,” says Weaver. “It goes without saying that we are always striving for continuous improvement. But now the school is formalizing the improvement process with resources and metrics.” Weaver notes that there is pressure for change from students and the marketplace. “Students are accustomed to multi-media, on-demand delivery of information. We have to keep pace with different delivery methods. But it doesn’t stop with merely taking advantage of technology. Our key differentiator is in helping students to gain deeper understanding, become critical, innovative thinkers and problem-solvers.”

As a first step in new approaches, Weaver and faculty colleague Cam Welsh will deliver their operations management course in a ‘flipped classroom’ format as of Fall 2013. Rather than have live lectures and takeaway assignments, students will prepare with video-lectures and readings before coming to class and spend class time working on projects and assignments. The ‘flip’ facilitates more experiential learning and interaction between teacher and student.

With a proud culture of excellence and innovation, the Haskayne School of Business has provided business education in Calgary since 1967. Two years ago the faculty approved a new strategic plan to focus on the distinct elements that define Calgary and Alberta: energy, ethical leadership and entrepreneurial-thinking.

HASKAYNE NEWS



Following a comprehensive review, Haskayne’s flagship Bachelor of Commerce (BComm) degree program has undergone a number of significant changes to meet the school’s strategic focus on advanced leadership, entrepreneurial-thinking and energy. Incoming students in Fall 2013 will be the first to experience the revised program. Changes include three, new, required courses: introductory business skills, business analytics and financial accounting, as well as mandatory leadership and ethics courses. Additional new, senior core courses will be phased in as the cohort progresses through the program, until the revised program is fully implemented in 2017.

CORE CURRICULUM CHANGE FOR BACHELOR OF COMMERCE

NEW SPECIALIZATION IN REAL ESTATE

Launched in 2012, the Real Estate and Entrepreneurship Studies initiative links real estate and urban economics research and education relevant to the Calgary marketplace, with outreach to industry and the community. Taught at both undergraduate and graduate levels, this initiative prepares future real estate industry leaders by emphasizing a close link to industry and government, research collaborations, and intellectual exchange and knowledge transfer.

Panel members (right to left) Scott Hutcheson, Aspen Properties; Peter Cohos, Triovest; Ron Renaud, Rencor Developments Inc.; and Roberto Geremia, Boardwalk REIT discuss lessons from Canadian real estate with American William J Ferguson, author of Market Discipline. Approximately 100 industry professionals and students attended the interactive event held in March, 2013, co-presented by the Haskayne School of Business and RealPac.

EXCELLENCE IN EDUCATION

Following a rigorous process that included an external review of the school’s ability to provide quality programs, the Haskayne School of Business was re-accredited by the Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business (AACSB). Fewer than 5% of business schools worldwide have AACSB accreditation. Haskayne was first accredited in 1985, the second of 11 Canadian business schools to earn the distinction.

2013 marked the 20th anniversary of the first graduating class from the Risk Management and Insurance (RMIN) program at Haskayne. One of the most established programs in the country and the only one in Western Canada, the RMIN program is practical and progressive. It is designed to give students an understanding of the risk management process, insurance products and operations and the competitive environment of the industry.

Associate professor in accounting and a faculty member since 1989, Michael Wright was appointed director of the MBA program on July 1. Wright has been the accounting representative on the MBA program committee for many years. He created and has been teaching the financial statement analysis course to MBAs for the past 15 years, and will continue to teach it as well as introductory financial accounting and global energy finance and accounting. Wright holds his PhD from Queen’s University and was made a Fellow of the Certified General Accountants (CGA) Association in July, honoured for his contributions to the profession.

One of his first initiatives as director of the MBA program is to introduce an internship program for full-time domestic and international students, beginning Fall 2013. Jointly delivered by the MBA office and Haskayne’s Career Centre, the program will look to place MBA students in four-month long employment opportunities in Calgary. “Many of our MBA students are transitioning careers and need to build experience with their newly acquired management knowledge,” said Wright. “The internship program will give them that opportunity. It also allows prospective employers not only to see what skills our students have but to play a role in shaping the future of business talent in our community.” To be eligible to participate in the program, students must complete a seven-part preparation program in addition to their course work.

CELEBRATING ANOTHER YEAR OF ACCOUNTING SUCCESS

Faculty in Haskayne’s accounting area demonstrated their pride in recent graduates who were successful in passing the Chartered Accounting profession’s uniform final evaluation (UFE) in 2012. It was another year of outstanding success with high national averages, and two Haskayne alumnae on the national honour roll and top ‘six’ in Alberta.

CENTRE FOR SUPPLY CHAIN MANAGEMENT AND LOGISTICS

The Canadian Centre for Advanced Supply Chain Management and Logistics was launched in January 2013 through a partnership between the Haskayne School of Business and the Van Horne Institute, and is supported by donations from Talisman Energy Inc. and CN. Under the directorship of Giovani Caetano da Silveira, the centre strives to develop and disseminate world-class knowledge on supply chain and logistics strategies and practices through focused education, specialized research and business community engagement.

MBA IN NUMBERS



Jaana Woiceshyn, associate professor in strategy and global management, has been named director of the graduate thesis program. Woiceshyn has been a faculty member at Haskayne since 1987, teaching business ethics since 1988. Her undergraduate and MBA studies at the Helsinki School of Economics focused on ethics and philosophy. She holds a PhD from the Wharton School at the University of Pennsylvania.

The creation of her position is in response to the growing number of PhD students at the business school and the increasing importance placed on research. Woiceshyn notes that there are 12 new PhD students starting in September 2013, bringing the total cohort to 45, an increase of 26%. While each student has a supervising faculty member, Woiceshyn will provide overall guidance to the group.

“We have competitive funding and are able to attract top students,” said Woiceshyn. “I was drawn to the position because I would like to have a hand in the way we train our next generation of educators and researchers. My first goals are to ensure the students are exposed to real-life business issues and to help them with skills to communicate their work. Academic writing is not always easily digested.”

CUSTOMIZING PROGRAMSPason – Manager to Leader Program

Pason is the leading, global provider of specialized data management systems for land-based and offshore rigs worldwide and has achieved significant growth and success in international markets. The company decided to invest in customized leadership development for the Top 100 leaders, and engaged Haskayne to deliver the ‘Manager to Leader Program’. All the Pason managers have now completed the program, which was about providing practical tools necessary to enhance their own and their team’s performance to the next level. The program provided participants with a broad exposure to the key knowledge and practice areas that leaders need to succeed in an increasingly complex, dynamic and uncertain business environment. It has been received as a great success and the relationship with Pason continues with further programs being developed.

DEVELOPMENT IN EXECUTIVE EDUCATION

Evans has a clear vision for Haskayne’s executive education program: to make it the number one learning partner for Calgary’s business community, particularly those organizations looking to develop high-performing, ethical leaders. His strategy is to first engage the business community to determine their needs and seek out ways to serve them better.

“I have found that there is much greater value created for clients when a business school is engaged as a learning partner rather than as a training or education provider.” Evans plans to build long-term client relationships for Haskayne by delivering innovative leadership programs that have an enduring impact on all client-organizations.

“Given the pace and nature of change in the business world, there is a huge demand for managers to keep updating their skills in areas such as leadership, business analytics, IT-enabled change and driving innovation,” explains Evans. “Haskayne’s executive education programs focus on practical learning that leads to real application and business results, making us the perfect learning partner for Calgary businesses.”

PARTNERING WITH THE ARTS

In the Fall of 2012, the executive education program partnered with the Rozsa Foundation to launch to Rozsa Arts Management Program (RAMP), designed to meet the growing need amongst arts organizations for building marketing and business administration capacity. In the six-month program in arts management participants learn about budget-making, marketing and audience development. The second cohort launches in Fall 2013.

The executive education program at the Haskayne School of Business is under new leadership as of June 2013, with the appointment of Hugh Evans, former vice dean and director of executive education at the globally renowned Henley Business School in the UK.



In the past year and a half, the Haskayne School of Business created three centres that form the keystones to the school’s ambitious strategy. The newly established centres help provide the structure from which Haskayne can grow into an internationally recognized leader for academic integrity, impartial research and community engagement in the areas that define Calgary and Alberta: ethical leadership, entrepreneurship and energy.

Jenny Krahn, director of the Canadian Centre for Advanced Leadership in Business, is an alumna of the University of Calgary, holding a BComm from Haskayne School of Business and a PhD in Project Management from the Schulich School of Engineering.

Her areas of expertise are project / program management and leadership. She has extensive experience consulting to organizations

developing company-wide project delivery systems and working with groups on team alignment, partnering, and conflict resolution.

CANADIAN CENTRE FOR ADVANCED LEADERSHIP IN BUSINESS

In January 2012, the Canadian Centre for Advanced Leadership in Business was created thanks to the generous donation of $9.5 million from four donors: Mac and Susan Van Wielingen and family through the Viewpoint Foundation; ARC Resources Ltd, led by then CEO, John Dielwart; ARC Financial Corp, led by CEO, Kevin Brown; and Kevin and Nadine Brown through the Brown Family Foundation.

Initiated in large part by Van Wielingen’s disappointment in the less than ethical decisions made by teams of executives during the 2008 financial crisis, the unique centre delivers a new model of leadership development, education and research that is unprecedented in Canada. It strives to define and teach ethical business standards, enhance organizational performance, and impart these leadership skills in a variety of ways to students.

“The centre is a catalyst for developing great leadership capabilities within our students,” said Jenny Krahn, director of the centre. “We support researchers on the forefront of cutting-edge research that gives direction and new ideas, focus on education that equips students to lead with confidence in diverse contexts, and support collaboration with the community that brings rich and diverse perspectives that contribute to student development.”

Outside the classroom, the centre provides students with opportunities to travel to competitions and events, a mentorship program that matches students with professionals, and opportunities for students to discover their learning style to help them become highly effective learners.

NEW CENTRES



ENBRIDGE CENTRE FOR CORPORATE SUSTAINABILITY

In March 2012, Enbridge donated $2.25 million over 10 years to establish the Enbridge Centre for Corporate Sustainability. A first-of-its-kind centre, it focuses on advancing the science and practice of achieving the triple bottom line in business and policy. The ‘triple bottom line’ refers to decisions aimed at balancing – in a meaningful and transparent way – environmental, social and economic considerations.

Under the directorship of Bob Page, the centre is working to convert the theory of sustainability into business practice. “The environmental and social aspects of a company should not be considered an extraneous piece,” said Page. “A company’s social license to operate is now becoming more important than the regulatory license to operate – it’s essential to get public approval or you will run into barriers.”

The centre enables graduate student and faculty research in corporate sustainability, funds post-doctoral fellows, facilitates the ConocoPhillips IRIS public seminar series, and supports the Enbridge Research in Action seminar series, which brings together influential researchers, practitioners and industry experts to discuss and disseminate leading-edge sustainability research. The centre also sponsors two annual sustainability awards, recognizing student achievements in areas related to sustainability and the advancement of the triple bottom line.

In February 2013, the Hunter Centre for Entrepreneurship and Innovation was created thanks to a $5 million lead donation from Doug and Diane Hunter and nearly $3 million in additional support from Wayne Henuset, David Robson, Charlie Locke and Keith Brown.

With bold plans to shape a new generation of entrepreneurs, the centre will showcase an inclusive, action-based and practical methodology for applying entrepreneurial thinking in small and large organizations. The centre will strive to teach students to develop the skills to recognize opportunities, embrace challenges and extend Calgary’s entrepreneurial “can-do” spirit with the understanding that entrepreneurship and innovation mean more than starting a new business.

“Knowing how to think like an entrepreneur is a critical skill for success. It involves creative, progressive thinking and an interest in continuous improvement – recognizing opportunities and knowing how to capitalize on them in real time,” said centre director Kimberley Neutens. “Honing this skill at Haskayne will ensure that our graduates are effective, valuable and successful at work.”

Leading-edge academic research in the areas of entrepreneurship and innovation will provide the impetus for curriculum development and new program ideas. Both undergraduate and MBAs will benefit from action-based learning in all aspects of entrepreneurial thinking and action, and will have the opportunity to test their skills in class and in partnership with industry.

Bob Page, director of the Enbridge Centre for Corporate Sustainability,Dr. Page has enjoyed 25 years of experience in exploring sustainability challenges and the means for corporate execution. Before joining the Centre in November, 2012, he was TransAlta Professor of Environment and Sustainability in the Institute for Sustainable Energy, Environment, and Economy (2007- 2012) at the University of Calgary.

Kim Neutens, director of the Hunter Centre for Entrepreneurship and Innovation, comes from Ontario where she was the director of MBA program services at the Rotman School of Management at the University of Toronto for 10 years. She also previously worked at the University of British Columbia and York University.

In April 2012, the Haskayne School of Business at the University of Calgary launched the Global Energy Executive MBA in partnership with global consultancy IHS (formerly IHS Cambridge Energy Research Associates). The first cohort finished their program in Fall 2013. The program took them to global energy centres around the world, completing an MBA entirely through an energy lens.

The participants themselves are from diverse locations: Moscow, Dubai, Kansas City, Houston, Calgary, Sydney and Melbourne, presidents, senior VPs and managers from a variety of energy industry sectors. With building a global network and cross-industry understanding key attributes of the program, the student mix added value to the program.

Designed to develop high potential executives in the global energy sector as the industry’s next senior leaders, the program is delivered in a blend of face-to-face- and online learning to minimize time away from work. The one-of-a-kind partnership between a university and a consulting firm combines rigorous academics and real-world learning, with professors and industry experts team-teaching. According to the academic director, Harrie Vredenburg, “The program provides the learning and leadership skills that transform high-potential managers into creative, strategic executives who know how to capitalize on opportunities, get results and lead an organization.”

The program got underway with 2.5 weeks at the University of Calgary campus and a site visit to Fort McMurray for first-hand understanding of the magnitude and challenges of the Alberta oil sands. In addition to curriculum basics, students had meetings with indigenous people to gain perspective on co-existing and sustainable resource development.

The trip to the Middle East was based on the premise that understanding the importance and cultural nuances of the Middle East leads to truly understanding the world of energy in its entirety. While in Riyadh, students stayed at the King Abdullah Petroleum Studies and Research Center (KAPSARC) and were given tours of the King Abdullah cities for Atomic and Renewable Energy and Science and Technology. They were also able to visit the Khurais Oil Field operated by Saudi Aramco, witnessing the ‘easy flow’ of oil which costs approximately $2 a barrel to produce.

A highlight of the trip was a visit to the Royal Court for an audience with His Excellency Dr. Majed Al-Moneef, Saudi Arabia’s top economist. Dr. Majed Al-Moneef, who reports directly to King Abdullah, spoke candidly with the students about the challenges facing Saudi Arabia.

The module included high-level guest speakers including Dr. Rajendra K. Pachauri, Nobel Peace Prize winner and chairperson of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), the scientific intergovernmental body that drives the climate change policy globally. It also included a village visit where students saw some of the lowest standards of living and the true power of energy. They saw how solar lanterns enabled students to study in the evening and meant improved indoor air quality for families previously dependent on kerosene lamps.

MODULE 5: CALGARY AND BANFF, AB

The cohort participated in its final face-to-face session in mid-late September, returning to the University of Calgary campus and spending time in a self-reflective wilderness retreat and at the Global Develop-ment Forum in Banff. Module 5 is also the finish of capstone projects – individual projects directly related to each student’s company.

Talking Business: Assessing the impact of long-term, low interest rates

Associate professor of finance, Alex David, was a featured speaker at the C.D. Howe Institute in Toronto in April, as part of the Global Risk Institute in Financial Services’ “Low-for-Long” workshop series for representatives from the financial industry, government, academia and professional organizations. David presented early findings from his research to shed light on how low interest rates can impact future prospects of financial institutions because of the effect that “low-for-long” phenomena has on the behavior of the non-financial institution community, including implications for capacity-utilization and employment-decisions by non-financial firms.

Talking leadership and character at the US Air Force Academy

Associate professor in human resources and organizational dynamics, Laurie Milton spoke at the inaugural Scholars’ Forum at the United States Air Force Academy 19th Annual National Character and Leadership Symposium in 2012. Targeted to cadets, the symposium theme was “Walk the Walk: Leaders in Ethical Action”. The purpose of the forum was to foster rigorous inquiry on the cutting-edge theories and research that related to the theme; and integrate and apply the relevant ideas of world-class scholars into Academy practices and research. Milton spoke on identity and interdependence.

MESSAGE TO BOOMERS: BALANCE LIQUIDITY AND LONGEVITY

Professor and Chair in Insurance and Risk Management, Norma Nielson researches retirement income issues. She presented to the C.D. Howe Institute in Toronto in April 2013 and to the Calgary business community at a Friday with the Faculty seminar on the trend seeing retiring baby boomers driving a shift from retirement savings to retirement spending, which means they need to balance near-term spending with longevity risk. Nielson’s research shows that more people should consider some form of annuity to have funds for the long haul. She calls on the government for policy reform to level the playing field for annuity products and to promote market-driven variety of choice.

CHUNDERSTANDING PROCRASTINATION, MAKING IT PAY, WINNING AT CANNES

Haskayne professor and procrastination expert Piers Steel was part of an ensemble cast in a Prudential video that took home the Titanium Lion award at this year’s Cannes Creativity Festival, the “Oscars” of creative communications. The video promoted Prudential’s web-based, multimedia campaign Bring Your Challenges that explores understanding human behavior, to help individuals attain financial security. In the award-winning video, Steel delivers a teaser on using procrastination to an advantage.

A recognized authority on procrastination, Steel is the author of The Procrastination Equation which has been translated into 12 languages and sold more than 100,000 copies worldwide. In August 2013 the American Psychology Association (APA) presented Steel one of its highest honours, the George A. Miller Award for best psychology paper, for his procrastination work.

BOOSTING EXPERTISE AT THE HASKAYNE SCHOOL OF BUSINESS

In 2013, the Haskayne School of Business ramped up talent and expertise in the areas of leadership and entrepreneurship with the appointments of three new directors and 10 new faculty members. The largest academic hire at the school for the last decade and an increase of 14 per cent, Haskayne has kept its Eyes High by enhancing research and providing new learning opportunities for students.

“As a school, it’s important for us to continually rejuvenate – to bring in new ideas and new research – in order to stay on the cutting-edge of business research and teaching,” said Loren Falkenberg, associate dean of research. “Our new faculty members increase our research capacity and intellectual capital. They all come with proven research records as well as great teaching evaluations.”

One new faculty member is James Meurs, a former assistant professor at the University of Mississippi who was drawn to Haskayne thanks to its culture of research, connection to the community and the opportunity to work in the energy sector.

Meurs’ research primarily centres on occupational health and wellbeing, and managing the political landscape in the workplace. Specifically, he looks at workplace stress, interpersonal conflict and burnout. He also investigates political skill, which explains how individuals can use their influence to navigate and benefit from the political landscape of organizations.

With a July 1 start, new faculty and staff got a Stampede-style welcome to Calgary and the Haskayne School of Business.

BOOSTING EXPERTISE AT THE HASKAYNE SCHOOL OF BUSINESS

“This is the perfect environment for my research,” said Meurs. “There are other researchers here who have similar interests to collaborate with, there is a really supportive and active research culture, and it’s exciting to be part of a growing faculty that is bringing in new and active researchers.”

This sentiment was echoed by Meurs’ colleague and new faculty member Tunde Ogunfowora “It’s a unique opportunity to be in an environment that is excited about my research. I am aware of only a few business schools that are explicitly committed to ethical leadership research and have the foundation to support it.”

Haskayne’s focus on advanced leadership, which includes ethical leadership, was sharpened with the establishment of the Canadian Centre for Advanced Leadership in Business in 2012, spurred by changes in the industry and business’ demands to improve the quality of leadership. Ogunfowora is part of a hot group of researchers whose areas of expertise lie in the leadership field. Specifically, his research revolves around ethical leadership and the impact ethical leaders have on those who are both within and outside of a company. He is also investigating if ethics can be taught - in terms of behaviour and practice - and what that impact will be for developing more ethical business corporations.

In addition to focusing on advanced leadership, Haskayne is re-energizing its focus on entrepreneurship and innovation to help shape future generations of entrepreneurial thinkers. New faculty member Olga Petricevic will be supporting this re-focus through her research on innovation, particularly how innovation emerges at the macro level. Petricevic looks at what skills and capabilities a company needs to build in order to successfully form alliances or joint ventures and seize opportunities. Her ongoing research will primarily focus on the emerging nanotechnology industry.

For Petricevic, the energy of the city, university and school is what drew her to Haskayne to start her academic career. “It was important for me to not just find a job, but rather to find an environment that is motivating, supportive and collaborative. It’s exciting to be in a city that has huge growth potential.”

With new talent and a larger research capacity, the Haskayne School of Business is set to achieve its goal of being one of Canada’s top five research-based business schools by 2016. “The energy and expertise of our new hires will help us raise the bar so that we can be that business school. James, Tunde and Olga are just three examples – all 10 new faculty are incredibly accomplished. With our new hires, we are younger and more committed to leaping forward,” says Dean Jim Dewald.

MEET HASKAYNE’S NEW FACULTY

James Coleman comes from Harvard where he has been the Climenko Fellow and lecturer of law for the past two years, and was also the executive editor of the Harvard Journal of Law and Public Policy. His research examines how domestic energy and environmental law are transforming in response to globalization and dramatic shifts in energy markets.

Liena Kano recently completed her PhD at the University of Calgary, where she earned a SSHRC Doctoral Scholarship. Her research interests are diverse, ranging from family business to strategic governance.

Mohammad Keyhani comes from York University where he completed his PhD in Entrepreneurship and Strategic Management. His research interests are at the core of conventional entrepreneurship research and stretch to new approaches, such as decision-making, modeling and simulation, and co-operative game theory.

Sharaz Khan holds a Master in Health Management Systems from Rush University, Chicago, IL and a Master in Public Administration from the Harvard Kennedy School of Government. His focus is on the alignment of business vision and objectives to strategic technology project implications.

James Meurs is an accomplished assistant professor from the University of Mississippi. His research focuses on organizational health and well-being, and managing the political landscape in the workplace. These interests overlap significantly with the above-ground challenges of the energy industry.

Pablo Moran comes from the Sauder School at UBC where he just completed his PhD in Finance. His work is in the field of corporate mergers and acquisitions, corporate restructuring and private equity.

Tunde Ogunfowora is a Calgarian returning home after working in faculty positions in both Regina and at Brock University for the past three years. His research interest is in ethical leadership, as well as examining other factors that influence why people make unethical decisions and engage in unethical behavior in the workplace.

Won Oh recently completed his PhD in Strategic Management at the University of Kansas. His research focuses on the effects of CEO/top management team and corporate governance on organizational outcomes.

Olga Petricevic completed her PhD in Strategic Management at Georgia State University. Her research interests are at the intersection of strategic management, technology and innovations, and international strategy.

Justin Weinhardt completed his PhD in Industrial/Organizational Psychology at Ohio University. His research and expertise lie in the areas of multiple goal-setting and quantitative methods.

JARISLOWSKY: EXECUTIVE IN RESIDENCE

Funding for the program comes from Stephen A. Jarislowsky, philanthropist and founder of the investment management firm Jarislowsky Fraser. Jarislowsky generously donated a million-dollar endowment for the creation of the fellowship in 2006. His gift stems from his belief that providing students with direct access to exemplary leaders in the business world will increase the breadth and depth of the learning experience at the university. His gift was matched by the Government of Alberta’s Access to the Future Fund.

“Our students, faculty and staff have an incredible opportunity to learn from the exceptional leaders that have joined us through the Jarislowsky fellowship in business management program,” says Haskayne Dean, Jim Dewald. “Consider our past fellows: Clive Beddoe, Gwyn Morgan, Martin Glynn, Brian MacNeill…these diverse and talented individuals bring insight into a variety of business sectors, including the not-for-profit community. Their willingness to share their skills, successes and failures, and timely, relevant examples makes for an unmatched experience for all.”

The Jarislowsky Fellowship in Business Management is a unique program at the Haskayne School of Business. Designed to broaden learning experiences, students, faculty and staff are connected with accomplished, top business leaders who, over the course of the academic year, bring their wisdom and real-world understanding to the classroom.

In 2011-2012 John Forzani, co-founder and former chairman of the Forzani Group was appointed as the Jarislowsky Fellow. Forzani, former Calgary Stampeder and driven entrepreneur, grew a small athletics equipment store into a multi-million dollar sports retailing empire across Canada. In 2005, he became a part-owner of the Calgary Stampeders and is now chairman of the CFL team.

A month after selling his successful retail enterprise for $771 million, the entrepreneur brought a wealth of knowledge and unique experiences to his role as Jarislowsky Fellow. At every opportunity Forzani worked to create a bridge between the classroom and the working world, sharing personal stories of building a corporate culture in which trust and respect guide the mission, the role sports play in building community, the parallels between coaching and leadership, and lessons on the dynamic of team.

Forzani also took the time to work one-on-one with students, providing them with coaching and mentorship around business ideas and career paths. “Every one of Mr. Forzani’s sentences was dripping with knowledge and wisdom. In that one conversation I learned more about business and the real world than I had in many University courses,” shared Haskayne student, Matt Diteljan.

In January 2013, Haskayne proudly welcomed Colin Jackson, former president and chief executive officer of the EPCOR Centre for the Performing Arts as the current Jarislowsky Fellow. “It is a great honour to have such an accomplished man working with our students,” says Dewald.

Jackson joined Haskayne with a diverse background. He was the founding artistic director of Prairie Theatre Exchange, drama producer for CBC, and was executive director of the Confederation Centre of the Arts. He has also served as a member of the Prime Minister’s external advisory committee on cities and communities, the Mayor’s panel on urban sustainability, the Canadian Conference of the Arts, Canada Council for the Arts, and was the Calgary chair of Harvard’s Schools and Scholarships Committee.

More recently, Jackson has led many international not-for-profit initiatives and founded imagiNATION 150 a volunteer organization dedicated to identifying “gifts” everyday people can give to Canada in celebration of the nation’s 150th birthday in 2017.

As more and more businesses look to connect and work with arts organizations in the city, Jackson’s wealth of knowledge, practical business skills and extensive experience in the arts and culture sector lend themselves perfectly to his role as Jarislowsky Fellow.

Former Jarislowsky Fellows include: Brian MacNeill, former CEO of Enbridge; Gwyn Morgan, founding president and retired CEO of EnCana Corporation; Martin Glynn, former president & CEO of HSBC Bank Canada and HSBC Bank USA; and Clive Beddoe, co-founder and former chairman, WestJet Airlines Ltd.

Within days of the flood, students, staff and faculty at the Haskayne School of Business stepped up to help out in the ways they best know how. The school community self-organized into three committees, each with a focus on helping a specific segment of the population affected by the flood: families, students and small businesses.

In the first wave of action, a group of 30 volunteers took three carloads of cleaning supplies donated by Haskayners to the Mission-Roxboro neighbourhood. Decked out in rubber boots and Haskayne t-shirts they pitched in to help muck-out yards and basements. “It was an incredible experience,” said organizer Micheline Campanaro. “Dirty work but a lot of fun too, and inspiring to see how community comes together. We had 30 students, staff and faculty as part of the clean-up crew and many more donate supplies and funds.”

Closer to home, Haskayne’s student-focused committee initiated a plan to determine how student housing availability would be affected by the flood and tighter rental market. Their plan and suggestions were ultimately incorporated into a university-wide initiative.

The ‘takin’ care of business’ committee had a multi-pronged approach to help home businesses and small-to-medium-sized businesses (SME) get back up and running and plan for the future. In one of the first actions, faculty and alumni from the Risk Management and Insurance area set up Flood Insurance 101, an online flood insurance information site and discussion board where people affected by the flood could ask questions and receive timely feedback.

The business school continues to participate as one of 12 organizations on the Calgary Business Recovery Task Force, an initiative led by the Calgary Chamber and Calgary Economic Development. Faculty and staff volunteered at the task force’s day-long business recovery expo at Calgary’s Telus Convention Centre on July 31. Haskayne’s dean Jim Dewald participated in a panel discussion on “Rebuilding your business”, addressing the need for strategy and planning. The business school also hosted an information kiosk which was staffed by eight additional faculty members: Jaydeep Balakrishnan, Loren Falkenberg, Blake Fleming, Huiqin Li, Rob Malach, Sandra Malach and Peter Sherer and staff member Rita Egizii. Haskayne took a ‘discovery approach’, gathering information through a survey of business owners about their challenges. The data will be used to determine how the business school can best help business recover.

The Student Club Enactus is developing a business recovery project with the community of Bragg Creek. A project director has been appointed and the initiative is now in the assessment/feasibility phase. Should the project move forward, it will be an ongoing, year-long initiative.

Haskayne’s JDC West Team and the Commerce Undergraduate Society raised $11,383.65 in support of the United Way of Calgary through a variety of events last year: Hunt 4 Hunger, Alumni Rocks Bonspiel, and Chillin’ 4 Charity. They also raised $3,780.07 in support of the Canadian Breast Cancer Foundation (CBCF) at the CIBC Run for the Cure and a further $800 for CBCF through the Top Gun sunglasses sale. In addition to fundraising, 50 volunteers spent a weekend giving a Calgary family a home makeover.

Participating in the national campaign, “5 Days for the Homeless”, six University of Calgary students braved the cold in March by sleeping outside for five nights to raise awareness for youth homelessness. Donations made to them throughout the week — $5,678.40 — were given to Avenue 15, a non-profit organization that provides homeless and runaway youth aged 12-17 with temporary shelter and basic needs. “As students, we understand the importance of community development and the positive impact we can make on those in need,” said organizer Esther Yu, Haskayne School of Business student.

Members of Enactus Calgary, a student-run organization at the University of Calgary comprised mainly of Haskayne students, are entrepreneurs with heart. Their programs focus on creating positive social change by utilizing business principles; and are designed to foster entrepreneurial development, economic and environmental sustainability, and financial literacy education within the city of Calgary and surrounding areas. In March, Enactus Calgary bested teams from across Western Canada to take the TD Entrepreneurship Challenge and the Scotiabank Ecoliving Green Challenge at the Enactus Western Regional Exposition. The team competed at the National Competition in Toronto in June, where faculty advisor Scott Radford was recognized as Fellow of the Year and BComm alumnus Avik Dey was recognized as the Enactus Alumnus of the Year.

Spearheaded by Haskayne students, the Global Brigades Calgary Business Brigade is a student-run, volunteer initiative that saw an interdisciplinary group of 21 University of Calgary students, including Haskayne MBAs and undergrads, travel to rural Panama in May to provide financial consulting services to rural entrepreneurs who were looking to start or expand their own businesses. The 2013 initiative was supported by Haskayne’s Canadian Centre for Advanced Leadership in Business.

A Haskayne School of Business tradition since 1970, the annual Business Day Conference gives students the opportunity to learn from and build relationships with members of the Calgary business community. The 2013 conference theme was “Discover Your Energy”, a concept encompassing both the energy industry and personal energy; the day-long forum was attended by 250 students. The conference is organized and managed by members of the Commerce Undergraduate Society.

Haskayne students continue to play a major role in the interdisciplinary solar car project at University of Calgary, effectively running a small business. While the engineering team builds the car, the business team is responsible for race logistics, communications, sponsorship and financial management of the $600,000 budget.

The Solar Car Team unveiled its 4th generation car, Schulich Delta, in February. Designed and built by Schulich School of Engineering students, the new model moves solar-car technology closer to being a consumer reality with room for a passenger and trunk space enough for two sets of golf clubs. Schulich Delta toured Alberta in May. The team will race the car in Australia in the World Solar Challenge which takes place October 2013, a race across the outback from Darwin to Adelaide.

Students placed first overall in the 2013 finals, winning six podiums – two gold, one silver and three bronze medals. Haskayne also placed first overall in the fall regular season, qualifying seven different top-six teams among more than 30 competing universities in each of the eight different events.



MBA COMPETITIONS

THE WINNING FORMULA

+ ++Experienced coaches: With more than 35 thousand coaching hours between them, far surpassing Malcom Gladwell’s quota needed to be considered an expert, Robert (Dr. Bob) Schulz and Leo Donlevy have led Haskayne students to championship year after year. In fact, Schulz has helped secure over 80 gold medals at ICBC competitions, more than twice as many as any other university. Donlevy, a former case competition participant turned coach, has helped secure a decade-long unmatched record at the John Molson International Case Competition, making the play-offs nine times and finals five times, and winning the competition twice.

Boston University Grand Business Challenge Haskayne MBA students made the finals and placed fourth, winning $7,500 at Boston University’s Grand Business Challenge in Digital Health. The team presented on ‘The Healthcare Ecosystem’ and demonstrated how an integrated digital platform could be used to improve patient healthcare. As finalists, the team also received a $64,000 in-kind prize from Microsoft to help support their project should they take it through to a start-up.

EMBA Team Takes Mobile App Idea to Competition in LiechtensteinA team of EMBA students, Lynette Lefsrud, Gordon Lynch, Wilco Oudjik, Darren Riley, and Tony Ruggieri, took second place in the inaugural Hilti Mobile App Competition, hosted by the tool manufacturer and held in Liechtenstein in February, 2013. Their winning entry was an app designed to track tool location, maintenance and servicing requirements, created initially for a group project in their EMBA MGIS 601 course led by Barrie Nault, Robson Professor, IRC Director at the Haskayne School of Business.

In a full year of business competition, MBA students also participated in the Molson Competition at Concordia University in Montreal, Hult in San Francisco; and hosted the 4th 24-Hour Case Competition in Calgary.

Financial Executives International Haskayne MBA students came out on top at the Financial Executives International Canada’s seventh annual Best in Class Invitational MBA Case Competition. Haskayne’s first ever all-female team competed against 44 other competitors and won the competition by solving a hypothetical crisis put forward by executives from the Canadian Tire Corporation, taking home the $10,000 grand prize. The team was later flown back to Toronto by Canadian Tire to present their case to the executive team.

Dedicated alumni: Case competition teams are further supported by alumni and members of the business community who volunteer countless hours to help prepare students leading up to the competition season. Volunteer advisors and judges travel from across Canada to help the teams.

Great students: Excellent competition candidates are in abundance at Haskayne thanks to strong presentation and project management skills learned in the classroom combined with solid work experience through summer placements and co-op terms or former career experience. The combination of theoretical knowledge and actual work experience gives Haskayne teams the advantage when developing award-winning solutions to real-world problems.

Practice: Once teams are in place, it all comes down to the old adage: practice makes perfect. Both MBA and undergraduate students spend countless hours practicing and reviewing old cases as well as building their confidence to take on some of the best competitors in the world.

DEVELOPMENT

The strategic vision of the Haskayne School of Business is to be an internationally recognized centre of excellence for business education, research and community engagement with an emphasis on those distinct elements that define Calgary and Alberta: ethical leadership, entrepreneurship and energy. To support this vision, Haskayne embarked on the Where Leaders Learn to Lead campaign to raise $50M. Since Fall 2009-10, we have raised $40 million towards our goal.

WHERE LEADERS LEARN TO LEAD CAMPAIGN HIGHLIGHTS

The Canadian Centre for Advanced Leadership in Business was launched in January 2012 thanks to a gift of $9.5M from four donors: Mac and Susan Van Wielingen and family through the Viewpoint Foundation, ARC Resources Ltd., ARC Financial Corp., and the Brown Family Foundation., creating a national centre to deliver a new model of advanced leadership development, education and research that is currently unprecedented in Canada.

The Hunter Centre for Entrepreneurship and Innovation was established in February 2013 thanks to $7.8M of donor support including $5M from Doug and Diane Hunter. The Hunter Centre will offer academic and research programs focused on entrepreneurship and innovation (such as the new Real Estate Studies Program) and provide support for professional networks for students and new entrepreneurs - shaping a new generation of entrepreneurs who will help Calgary continue to grow and prosper.

The Enbridge Centre for Corporate Sustainability was launched in March 2012 thanks to gift of $2.25M from Enbridge to advance the science and practice of achieving the triple bottom line (balancing - in a meaningful and transparent way - environmental, social, and economic considerations) in business and in policy.

The Haskayne Founders’ Circle – our annual giving circle for individual donors of $10,000 or more annually has grown to 42 members who have donated $2.02M in gifts and pledges since its inception in 2011.
