Location: Room 32-144
As engineers, we are trained to think about physical systems, but technical leadership involves navigating complex social structures as well. In this workshop, we will explore how systems thinking tools can help leaders to integrate social and technical considerations, and support interdisciplinary collaboration and decision making with a particular focus on sustainability.
Leader:
Dr. Emily Moore is a leader in engineering education and leadership development, serving as the Director of the Troost Institute for Leadership Education (ILead) at the University of Toronto. Before joining U of T, Dr. Moore spent over two decades in industry, first at the Xerox Research Centre of Canada where she scaled lab innovations to manufacturing, and later at Hatch, where she held leadership roles including Director of Technology Development. As a Rhodes Scholar with a BEng in Engineering Chemistry from Queen’s University and a DPhil in Physical Chemistry from Oxford University, Dr. Moore combines technical depth with leadership insight. Her awards include being named one of “100 Global Inspirational Women in Mining” and receiving the SCI Canada Kalev Pugi Award, highlighting her commitment to equity and innovation in engineering.
