Significant Research Achievements

Dr Irene Ryan from the Management Department has been awarded a Marsden Fast Start.
 
Irene's project was titled: 'Something else is happening here': The invisibility of female leadership. Irene will be investigating the role of sport in male-dominated leadership cultures in a three year project starting in 2012.

This is a prestigious award - and it is excellent to see Irene's hard work in pursuing this grant across the two round application and external reviewing process, recognised and rewarded.

Professor Alireza Tourani-Rad, Chair of the Finance department, has been appointed as a:

  • Research Affiliate of the European Centre for Corporate Engagement (ECCE) (http://www.corporate-engagement.com). The ECCE is an internationally oriented research consortium devoted to delivering top-ranked research in the fields of corporate engagement and sustainable finance.
  • Associate Editor to the Editorial Board of the Multinational Finance Journal (http://mfs.rutgers.edu/) for a 3-year term. The journal is the Quarterly Publication of the Multinational Finance Society and is currently ranked B based on ABDC ranking list.

The AUT Finance team came second, after University of Auckland and ahead of five other participating universities, at the CFA Research Challenge Competition held at Massey University. This is a great achievement. Acknowledgements go out to all our students and to Senior Lecturer Katrin Gottshalk for her superb role in mentoring the team.
