BACKGROUND
After a bachelor’s degree in business administration specialized in applied economics (2005), I worked for 8 years as strategic advisor for large pension plans. In parallel, I completed the Chartered Financial Analyst designation (2009) and an MBA (2014). Then, I completed a doctoral degree in management at HEC Montreal (2019) under the supervision of Luciano Barin-Cruz. I am now a postdoctoral fellow at the University of Ottawa under the supervision of
Samia Chreim, holding a 2-year SSHRC funding.
RECOMMENDATIONS
“As a member of his thesis advisory committee and as a collaborator on two other research projects, I have had great pleasure in working with Mathieu Bouchard, and I know he will be a terrific colleague. He has a wonderful creative spark, and is very rigorous in everything he does. In addition to developing a strong research profile, he also has a deep concern with making his academic work (whether teaching or research) relevant for practice and useful for society.”
— Ann Langley, emerita professor at HEC Montreal
“As a member of his PhD dissertation committee and co-author with him on a recent publication in Academy of Management Review, arguably the most influential organization and management theory journal, I can attest to
Mathieu’s unique intellectual positioning and capabilities, as well as his great potential to establish himself as an impactful scholar. He is a skilled writer and an original thinker. He is also a delight to work with – creative and
open-minded yet reliable and disciplined. He is a terrific colleague.”
— Steve Maguire, professor of strategy, innovation and entrepreneurship at University of Sydney Business School
“Mathieu worked in collaboration with me and other researchers in Canada and the United-States to write a funding application for a major multi-party project in international development. His work of outstanding quality
helped us obtain more than $400,000 in funding over a three-year period, which were granted by the partner organization and the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council (SSHRC) of Canada. I very highly recommend Mathieu’s services.”
— Luciano Barin Cruz, professor at HEC Montréal and director of Pôle IDEOS
«This is an extraordinarily interesting and well executed dissertation [with] almost too many strengths to enumerate. The dissertation carves
out an interesting hole in the literature on the contested construction of professions’ jurisdictional boundaries. »
— W. E. Douglas Creed, professor at University of Rhode Island and external examiner of my doctoral thesis
“I mandated Mathieu to provide targeted organizational support to develop the governance and funding strategy of an important social innovation initiative in community health. Through an engaging research-action process,
Mathieu knew how to mobilize the collective intelligence of stakeholders to co-construct with them an applied strategic plan. This strategic plan will guide the organizational capacity-building of this initiative in years to come, which will
greatly favor the perennity and replicability if this innovative model. In short, Mathieu has all the hard and soft skills needed to bring collaborative projects to fruition!”
— Marie Claude Lagacé, former CEO of Humanov·is and current senior director, innovation and social transformation at Conseil de l’innovation du Québec
“In a research-action mandate with our team, Mathieu has demonstrated an excellent capacity to build collaborative ties between the academic, clinical, and community worlds. An original thinker and an engaged actor,
Mathieu cares deeply about putting research in the service of social innovation and the common good.”
— Antoine Boivin, professor at Université de Montréal and holder of the Canada Research Chair on Partnership with Patients and Communities
