Format: Brownbag Lunch Seminar – bring your own lunch; coffee, tea, and sweets will be provided
Location: Loyola Building, 2nd Floor, Private Dining Room (PDR)
Presenter: Dr. Michel Lafleur, Université de Sherbrooke (Quebec), Director, Management and Human Resource Department, Director, IRECUS* – Research and Education Institute for Co-operatives and Mutuals
Michel will present on his teaching and research on the co-operative business model and sustainable development. The business model for co-operatives, credit unions, and mutual is well suited to the triple bottom line – valuing economic, environmental, and social factors. Michel’s presentation will touch on the co-operative business structure, sustainable development principles, and management models.
*IRECUS offers a Master’s in Management and Governance for Co-operatives and Mutuals. Given the similarities to the Saint Mary’s programs (Master’s and Graduate Diploma in Co-operative Management), we are exploring opportunities for greater partnerships.
