Biographie

Dr. Heidi Weigand is a member of the Safe Assured research team in Dalhousie’s Rowe School of Business, who focuses on leadership development, systemic discrimination and resiliency. Examples of her work include: the study of a leader’s ability to manage the balance of positive and negative emotions and the extent to which this practice vicariously affects the development of an innovative mindset in followers; the study of motivating factors that influence Generation Z leaders to drive responsible change; how the Covid-19 and Black Lives Matter movements are changing GenZ and Millennial perceptions of kindness; and, the study of health-care leaders and the extent to which they inform patient safety health-care policy and the impacts of COVID-19. Heidi is a research member of PhiLab’s Atlantic hub and Indigenous Research Cluster.
