    Beware the inequities of ‘neutral’ management practices

    Follow us on LinkedIn! / (https://www.linkedin.com/company/mcgilldelve/) 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. // KEEP LEARNING Read Professor Galperin’s full study in Organization Science / (https://pubsonline.informs.org/doi/abs/10.1287/orsc.2023.17754) Visit our website to change how you think about management / (https://delve.mcgill.ca) // CREDITS This episode of the podcast was produced, hosted, and edited by Eric Dicaire.

    Theatre was the original thinking machine

    As the world navigates the impacts of AI, we’re returning to the oldest thinking machine of all: the theatre. 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.

    What GenAI really means for students and teachers

    This podcast is on video! Watch it on YouTube: https://youtu.be/6UuQ6u-d1as 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.

    The truth about job hopping

    Be sure to follow McGill Delve on LinkedIn! @McGillDelve 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?

    Special feature: Your hierarchy is your strategy

    Be sure to follow McGill Delve on LinkedIn: https://bit.ly/3TiUFVw 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.

    Shopping with white guilt

    Be sure to follow McGill Delve on LinkedIn: https://bit.ly/3TiUFVw 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.

    The humanitarian side of ops management

    Be sure to follow McGill Delve on LinkedIn! 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? In this episode of the McGill Delve podcast, Professor de Vries explores this question and more. Anicet Fangwa, Assistant Professor of Strategy and Organization and an expert in humanitarian management, hosts this episode.

    The end of oil

    Follow McGill Delve on LinkedIn! 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.
