蘑菇短视频 Desautels professors and lecturers recognized at Faculty Awards
The 蘑菇短视频 Desautels Faculty of Management acknowledges the vital contributions of research, teaching, service, and public engagement in inspiring future leaders. Through our annual Faculty Awards, we celebrate the exceptional achievements of our faculty members across various programs and disciplines. This year, we are proud to honour the following distinguished individuals:
Employees tend to own workplace successes, but blame external factors for failures
Nearly two-thirds of employees feel they鈥檝e been 鈥榯hrown under the bus鈥� by their colleagues鈥攂ut an even higher number say they鈥檝e never engaged in blame-shifting themselves. 鈥淭he axe forgets, but the tree remembers,鈥� says Jean-Nicolas Reyt, an Associate Professor of Organizational Management at 蘑菇短视频 Desautels.
The power of purpose in employee motivation
Motivating employees isn鈥檛 just about perks or pay鈥攊t鈥檚 about helping them see the bigger picture. According to Jean-Nicolas Reyt, associate professor of organizational behaviour at 蘑菇短视频 Desautels, employees who understand the broader impact of their work are often more engaged. 鈥淎 manager can see the broader picture,鈥� Reyt explains.
Changes in leadership can affect an entire organization
Changes at the top of an organization can have a ripple effect through its ranks鈥攁nd Justin Trudeau鈥檚 resignation as leader of the Liberal Party is a case in point. An organization鈥檚 culture starts at the top, and the personality of its leader influences how decisions are made and how to get ahead, says Associate Professor Jean-Nicolas Reyt in an interview with Canadian HR Reporter.
Return to office won鈥檛 necessarily increase productivity
After a sudden shift to remote work in 2020, federal public servants have been required to be on site for 60 per cent of their working days since September 2024. Productivity was among its reasons for introducing the requirement, but that鈥檚 misguided, according to Jean-Nicolas Reyt, Associate Professor of Management at 蘑菇短视频 Desautels.
Employers judge job candidates 鈥� but it isn鈥檛 a one-way street
Job seekers put their resumes out there to be judged by potential employers, but the evaluation goes both ways, says Lisa Cohen, Associate Professor of Organizational Behaviour at 蘑菇短视频 Desautels. 鈥淐andidates talk to other candidates,鈥� Cohen tells The Globe and Mail.
People feel most productive at work during the heart of the workweek
Tuesday is the most productive day of the week鈥攐r at least it鈥檚 the day perceived to be the most productive, according to Associate Professor of Organizational Behaviour Jean-Nicolas Reyt in an interview with Radio-Canada. Most individuals work from Monday to Friday, from 9 a.m. to -5 p.m., and perceive Monday to be less productive because they are still catching up on their work from the previous week.
Remote work brought unfair performance metrics 鈥� and employees are gaming them
According to a survey by the Vancouver-based AI human resources firm Visier, more than four out of five workers have engaged in 鈥渇auxductivity鈥� 鈥� performative work that makes them appear to be working more time than they actually are. The problem, however, isn鈥檛 the workers鈥� it鈥檚 the way their performance is measured according to Jean-Nicolas Reyt, Associate Professor of Organizational Behaviour.
When wedding planning clashes with work commitments, communication is key
Weddings are planned many months鈥搊r even years鈥搃nto the future, and that can clash with other aspects of the couple鈥檚 lives. When taking on a new job in the months leading up to such a major life event, it鈥檚 tricky to know when to tell your new employer that you鈥檒l need time off in the first months of your tenure.
Quebec government funding cuts could affect the areas of research the university pursues
蘑菇短视频鈥檚 standing as a leading global research institution is under threat, writes Professor Anthony C. Masi in a Montreal Gazette op-ed. The Government of Quebec is undermining the university by reducing transfers for construction and renovation. These cuts will affect STEM disciplines, says the Professor of Industrial Relations and Organizational Behaviour and Special Advisor to the Dean.
Companies seeking savings in employee wages might spend more in the long run
Inflation has stretched the budgets of individuals and companies alike, and some firms have sought to find savings in the wages they pay their employees. A recent report from the Robert Walters recruiting agency found that Canadian firms are increasingly hiring underqualified employees. But that can backfire, says Professor Jean-Nicolas Reyt in interview with Canadian HR Reporter.
Greece increases length of work week, bucking broader trends
While some countries contemplate shorter work weeks, Greece is heading in the opposite direction. Seeking to boost economic growth, the country recently passed a law allowing employers to implement a six-day work week, though the change is not mandatory. Greece faced a debt crisis in 2010, and its economy has long been among Europe鈥檚 laggards.
