DEAN, UCI PAUL MERAGE SCHOOL BUSINESS
WHY: Top spot at UCI’s business school, which counts more than 1,500 MBA students. Succeeded Eric Spangenberg, who returned full-time to the classroom.
NOTABLE: A globally recognized expert in human resource management.
QUOTABLE: Of the “Great Resignation” trend, said companies should “reframe how they approach managing their workers. One way to do this is by investing in external relationships that ensure consistent access to high-quality talent. Enhancing relationships with educational institutions is one option. Adopting alumni programs that recruit former employees to rejoin is another.”
