Biography

As Director (1982–1986), he oversaw the revision of the HEC Montréal charter and created new research centres. He initiated the School’s first fundraising campaign, which surpassed its target, and carried out a number of strategic projects (computerization, founding the Chair in Accounting and the scholarship fund). He also served as Director of the Institute of Applied Economics (1969–1972), and wrote a history of the School.
