This conference sought to build and strengthen multidisciplinary and applied research by managers and practitioner-scholars amidst the growing challenges facing both academia and practice. It explored the research question, “Do guided experiential metaphor-rich learning experiences lead to increased ethical leadership and social responsibility and improved decision-making in students as compared to traditional ethics education in university courses?”
At the Clute International Academic Conference, along with a fellow faculty member from the College of Business, he presented the findings of a study that explored the factors that cause project managers to feel fully engaged.
