Patrick Callery is Assistant Professor of Management at the University of Vermont’s Grossman School of Business. Prior to joining GSB, he served as Assistant Professor of Strategic Management at Carleton University's Sprott School of Business in Ottawa, Canada. His research examines the nexus of corporate sustainability and strategic management within the context of climate change. Specifically, he studies corporate and investor management of climate change, covering carbon emissions reductions and associated information disclosure strategies, with the goal of improving stringency and accountability on corporate initiatives and reporting of climate-related performance. He also studies corporate innovation strategies to enable a hastened transition to a more sustainable, low carbon economy. His research has been published in several academic journals including Academy of Management Discoveries, Organization & Environment, Business & Society, Journal of Environmental Management, Journal of Cleaner Production, and the Journal of Environmental Investing. He has provided commentary on corporate climate disclosure to several media outlets, including National Public Radio, Politico, Bloomberg, and Time magazine. Dr. Callery obtained his PhD from the Bren School of Environmental Science & Management and Department of Economics at the University of California, Santa Barbara, and holds an MBA in Strategy and Finance from the Haas School of Business at the University of California, Berkeley.
