    Chaired Faculty Position in Sustainability at INSEAD

    INSEAD, the global business school with campuses in Europe (France), Asia (Singapore) and the
    Middle East (Abu Dhabi), has an opening for a Chaired Position in Sustainability.

    We are looking for a mid-career or senior faculty member. The person should have a strong research
    agenda and a proven track record in sustainability. He or she is expected to develop both our
    research as well as our teaching activities on the broad subject of sustainability (MBA, EMBA,
    Executive Education, and PhD). Given that INSEAD is a Business School, it is expected that the
    chairperson will have a keen interest in sustainability issues with relevance to the business world,
    e.g., letting the research agenda be fed by business-relevant problems, as well as communicating
    research findings to the business community through publications, teaching and other forms of
    dissemination.

    The expectation is that the person will join one of our academic areas (e.g. Technology and
    Operations Management, Strategy, Economics and Political Science) and perhaps teach in those while
    focusing research on sustainability. We are open about which academic area should host this chair.

    INSEAD has already developed a solid knowledge base in sub-areas of sustainability given the strong
    interest from its business partners, alumni and current students. Faculty members broadly interested
    in sustainability are gathered in a research center in an effort to foster synergies and
    interdisciplinary work. The chairperson will be expected to play a central role in the further
    development of these initiatives.

    For further information, please contact Professor Luk N. Van Wassenhove, Chair of the Search
    Committee at luk.van-wassenhove@insead.edu. Please send CV and other relevant materials before
    May 1st, 2012.
