AI data centres promise investment and high-paying jobs, but their economic benefits come with trade-offs. McGill Desautels Faculty Lecturer Simon Blanchette warns that permanent employment may be limited, while demand for skilled workers could place additional pressure on housing, energy and infrastructure projects.

Nearly two-thirds of employees use AI at work, but training is struggling to keep up. Emmanuelle Vaast, Professor at McGill Desautels, says organizations must look beyond technical instruction and consider how AI affects employees’ roles, needs and professional identities. Continuous learning, practical experience and open dialogue can help employees adapt as the technology evolves.

The Total Portfolio Approach (TPA) gives investment teams greater flexibility, but measuring its value is not straightforward. New research from McGill Desautels Professor Sebastien Betermier and his co-authors finds that even skilled funds can trail simple benchmarks for years because of statistical noise. Diversification may strengthen portfolios while making performance harder to measure.

Tariffs may soon hit Canadian consumers through higher prices, fewer options and longer waits. McGill Desautels Professor Saibal Ray says construction materials and auto parts are especially exposed. With supply chains under pressure, Canada has a growing incentive to expand domestic production and look beyond the U.S. for trade.

"If you're starting with no internship or industry experience, don't assume you're already behind."

Iris Wang (MMA'26) entered the Master of Management in Analytics with a math and computer science background but no corporate experience. Today she works as a Senior Analyst at Canadian Tire Corporation, where one of her analytical models was running in production within four months.

Her path ran through the MMA's capstone project and the McGill DataSphere Lab, where students tackle real business challenges with industry partners. "I learned just as much about communicating with clients and understanding their needs as I did about the technical work," she says.

Her advice to future students: figure out what's actually holding you back, then work to close that gap.

As fast fashion brands promote sustainability, their biggest challenge may be the sheer volume of clothing they produce. McGill Desautels Professor Javad Nasiry explains that high-speed, low-cost production often compromises quality and limits how long garments remain in use. The takeaway: sustainable materials alone cannot offset overproduction.

As workplace surveillance expands, productivity is not the only thing being measured. Trust is, too. McGill Desautels Associate Professor Jean-Nicolas Reyt warns that tracking screen time, keystrokes and facial expressions can encourage employees to game the system rather than perform better. The takeaway for employers: focus on results, not digital activity.

As pension plans explore AI, the biggest risk may be losing members’ trust. McGill Desautels Professor Sebastien Betermier explains that AI can streamline administration, support employees and improve member communications, but inaccurate information can quickly damage credibility. Careful implementation, strong governance and robust data protections will be essential as adoption grows.

Over the summer, several McGill Institute for Transforming Healthcare scholars received special recognitions and awards in management and sociology conferences. The four studies recognized look at the gap between healthcare in theory and healthcare in practice.

Anand Bhardwaj and Samer F***j received the Best Student-Led Paper award in the Health Care Management Division Academy of Management at the Academy of Management for the paper: “A Quality of Mercy is Not Trained: Practice vs. Representation of Care in Artificial Intelligence”.

Both papers above were selected as the “AOM best paper”, an award with an acceptance rate of 3%.

Karla Sayegh, Ann Langley, and Samer F***j received an Honorable Mention as the runner-up the Star–Nelkin Paper Award at the American Sociological Association. Their paper is titled “Unsettling Settled Knowing: Reconciling Differences in Expert Practice”.

Xian Zhu was a finalist for the EGOS (European Group for Organizational Studies) 2025 Best Student Paper Award for the paper “A Life or Death Time Game: Extreme Collaboration in the Level-1 Trauma Center and ED”. He also received the outstanding reviewer award from both the Healthcare management and the CTO divisions of Academy of Management.
