Distinguished Speaker Series

Hearing leading scholars and thought leaders in any field inspires researchers to consider greater possibilities in their own research. To assist with the inspiration of our faculty and students, the David O'Brien Centre for Sustainable Enterprise (DOCSE) has established the Distinguished Speaker Series. Our goal is to consistently bring in top scholars in all aspect of the field of sustainable enterprise, who are able to speak to both academic researchers and practicing managers. By finding such speakers, not only does DOCSE advance knowledge, but we also change practice.
