Listen "From the Director's Chair: Soo Min Toh Leads IMI through its Next Stage"
Episode Synopsis
The guest on this edition of VIEW to the U podcast, Professor Soo Min Toh talks about, among other things, the research that she has done in gender and the workplace, particularly in the area of women in leadership roles, something that has particular relevance for Soo Min’s own current situation: in the summer of 2017, she took on the role of Director at University of Toronto Mississauga’s Institute for Management & Innovation, also known as IMI, where she is helping to foster this expansive team, which boasts no less than 6 graduate professional programs, the home of dozens of faculty members, some cross-appointed over eight of UTM’s departments, and nearly 30 administrative staff, for continued success and future development as IMI continues to evolve.
We will also cover a range of topics in relation to scholarship, such as the work Soo Min has done in expatriate management, the integration of foreign-trained professionals within organizations, and, because it’s a word that gets used a lot, what “innovation” means to her.
Soo Min Toh is an Associate Professor of Organizational Behaviour in the Department of Management at the University of Toronto Mississauga with a cross-appointment to the Organizational Behaviour and HR Management area at U of T’s Rotman School of Management. In July 2017 she was named the Director of IMI for a three-year term. Her research focuses on understanding knowledge transfer, the workplace experiences of immigrant professionals, and female leadership.
