Roger Martin, MBA

Roger joined Rotman as Dean in September 1998 from Monitor Company, one of the world’s most influential consulting firms.  There he was co-head of the firm, and the founder of the company’s Canadian practice.  Mr. Martin has established an aggressive vision for Rotman, with emphasis on global competitiveness and integrative thinking, and has been quoted in more media vehicles than all other Canadian business school deans combined.

During the fifteen year period at the Monitor Company and in addition to his client work on behalf of some of the world's top corporations, Roger served as Monitor co-head for two years and was the founding chairman of Monitor University, the firm's educational arm.

In addition to publishing in the Harvard Business Review, Time, and other periodicals, Martin has worked with Harvard Business School colleagues such as Michael Porter, Chris Argyris, and Michael Jensen. He has also been profiled in periodicals such as the Financial Times, the Globe and Mail, and Fast Company. He lives in Toronto, Ontario.

Roger’s passion and commitment to the success of MBA program goes beyond his role as the head of Rotman business school, as he takes active role in the curriculum and teaches strategic management.
