Posting Date:  August 22, 2012
Application Deadline:  September 1, 2012
Position:  Part-Time Academic
Department/Location:  School of Business Administration
Pay Rate:  $4565.50 (In accordance with CUPE Collective Agreement)

Work Assignment:

A Part-Time Academic is needed to teach the following course from September - December 2012.

Starting Lean - A Pilot Offering

This course provides real world, hands-on learning on what it's like to actually start a scalable company or enterprise.  This class is not about how to write a business plan.  It's not an exercise on how smart you are in a classroom, or how well you use the research library to size markets.  And the end result is not a PowerPoint slide deck for a VC presentation.  This is a practical class - essentially a lab, not a theory or "book" class.  Our goal, with the constraints of a classroom and a limited amount of time, is to create an entrepreneurial experience for you with all of the pressures and demands of the real world in an early stage start up.

Requirements:

1.  completed the Lean LaunchPad Educators Program
2.  a PhD in a related discipline,
3.  an understanding of management and entrepreneurship,
4.  significant teaching experience
5.  Consulting experience would also be an asset.
6.  The pilipiliÂþ»­ful candidate must also be able to meet the School's accrediting body (AACSB) academic qualification requirements or professional qualification requirements.

Duties included, but are not limited to:

The Part-Time Academic will be responsible for all aspects of teaching and administering the class, including lectures, test preparation and evaluation.  He/she will teach at the undergraduate level, supervise students and contribute to the academic life of the School.  Evidence of research activity will be an asset. The Part-Time Academic should be available for two hours per week for consultation with students.  The Part-Time Academic reports to the Director of the Department.

Please apply in writing by the above deadline to:
