I am currently an Associate Professor in the Department of Management and Technology at Bocconi University in Milan. Prior to my appointment at Bocconi, I was on the faculty of the London Business School, where I was responsible for the core ethics course for every incoming MBA and EMBA student.

My Approach to Ethical Systems:

My research focuses on how organizations facilitate morally problematic behavior, and how to build ethically resilient individuals and contexts. I also serve as an Academic Fellow of the Ethics and Compliance Initiative, and sit on the UK’s Banking Standards Board Assessment Steering Committee.

My work has been featured in the Financial TimesWall Street JournalForbes, and Fast Company, as well as on NPR, the CBC, and the BBC. I have consulted with and designed courses for several organizations on integrity in business, including the Institute of Chartered Accountants of England and Wales (London, UK), the National Health Service (UK), the International Anti-Corruption Academy (Vienna, Austria), and the Brookings Institute (Washington, DC).
