BIO

Dror Etzion is the Steven Grossman Endowed Chair of Sustainable Business at the Grossman School of Business (GSB) at The University of Vermont.

Dror's research program focuses on “grand challenges”: the unyielding, intractable problems that characterize the Anthropocene. His work suggests that managing for sustainability through local, open, emergent initiatives increases the recruitment of diverse stakeholders, fosters creativity, and yields impactful outcomes.

From 2008 – 2023 Dror worked at the Desautels Faculty of Management, at McGill University. He received his Ph.D. from IESE Business School in Barcelona, Spain. Previously, Dror worked for 5 years in the Israeli software industry, and also spent a year at The Natural Step, an international non-profit research and consultancy organization focused on sustainable development.
