BUILDING
MOMENTUM

YEAR IN REVIEW 2015/2016

Dean's Message

Dean Bob Kennedy

Building Momentum

Rapid change – or better yet, DISRUPTION – is affecting the business environment, and therefore the way Ivey must operate, as well as the topics we must explore in our research and teach in our programs. As we look ahead to what Ivey will be in five, 10 or 20 years, I am drawing on the experience and insights of alumni, staff and faculty to ensure that we are on the right strategic path. The support of all of our stakeholders and our shared commitment to Ivey’s success is a competitive advantage that will continue to build our momentum.

I look forward to where it will lead.

Bob Kennedy
Dean, Ivey Business School
