This program is specifically designed for those pursuing academic careers rather than consulting or management roles.

Their research explores varied topics including social networks, workplace trust, entrepreneurial studies, organizational learning, family enterprises, territorial behavior, power dynamics, diversity issues, workplace harassment, and social exclusion.

OBHR professors have earned multiple honors for both their research contributions and teaching innovations, consistently achieving top student evaluations within the Sauder School of Business.
