Dror Etzion joined the Desautels Faculty of Management in 2008, after completing his Ph.D. studies at IESE Business School in Barcelona, Spain. Previously, Dror worked for 5 years in the Israeli software industry, and also spent a year at The Natural Step, an international non-profit research and consultancy organization focused on sustainable development.
Dror’s research program focuses on environmental metrics: how we decide what we measure, how new metrics diffuse in the organizational landscape, and how accurately the measures used actually capture the reality of business impacts on the environment. His Ph.D. work was awarded the Booz Allen Hamilton/Strategic Management Society Fellowship and the Aspen Institute’s Business and Society Program Dissertation Proposal Award. Dror has also published research on corporations, democracy and the public good. His work has appeared in Journal of Management and the Journal of Management Inquiry.
Dror teaches the core undergraduate course: Social Context of Business (MGCR-360); the MBA elective: Strategies for Sustainable Development (MGPO-640); and executive education modules on business and sustainability.
