Back in Dublin after two days at IESE Business School, on their spectacular Madrid campus, I want to thank Oscar Gonzalez Peralta for the opportunity to meet his Master in Management students and for the work together to merge our styles and prepare the sessions. It was also nice to meet other friends on the way, and ask for wisdom – thank you Ricardo Calleja! I even managed to get a glimpse at the Royal palace… a perfect journey! hashtag#teaching hashtag#learning hashtag#businessethics DCU Business School

The Oxford University Centre for Corporate Reputation hosted the R:ETRO Symposium from July 2 to July 4, 2023: Alan Morrison and Rita Mota are the extraordinary co-conveners of this initiative, which managed to create a fantastic community of scholars over the past years. I want to express to them, and to Rupert Younger, whom I finally had the pleasure to meet in person, gratitude for this event which brought us together after an academic year of online seminars. Special thanks to Rachel Best and Hannah Cooper for making the event possible.
It was wonderful to meet old and new friends; I collected some pictures here.
I had the opportunity to present the article co-authored with Pablo Garcia Ruiz (Universidad de Zaragoza). Edward David, DPhil had the patience to read it and be an extraordinary discussant: thank you Edward, and thank you all for the constructive comments and feedback.
Now we are looking forward to seeing what Alan and Rita are preparing for the next academic year – #staytuned
Thank you!

The Oxford Character Project hosted the “Character, Culture, and Leadership in UK Business” conference last week in Oxford at the Rhodes House.
I was honoured to be there to present on “#Character and Organisational #Culture“. Three real characters helped me navigate the fascinating dynamic between personal #character and #organisations: Edward Smith (captain of the Titanic), Ernest Shackleton (explorer), and Catherine Johnson (mathematician).
Michael Lamb then moderated our panel conversation with Sarah GillardDr. Doyin Atewologun and David Rouch. #thankyou for the good conversation!

I want to thank Edward Brooks and his fantastic team for making this event possible and gathering such an interesting group of people.
I am particularly grateful to Michael Lamb, Adam Grodecki, David Rouch, Paolo Cervini, Elisa Farri, Melissa Jones Briggs, Amalia Amaya, Charles Wookey, Hitendra Wadhwa, Corey Crossan, PhDAnjali Sarker, Luna Wang, Dr Rebecca ParkAndrew Maile and Jocelyn Krauss for the inspiring conversations and the opportunity to share common interests and ideas. A special thank you to Lily Elsner for her invaluable support.
I bring home fresh ideas for #research and #teaching, and for the never ending and daily challenge of personal #flourishing.
