Biography

Roger L. M. Dunbar is a Professor of Management Emeritus at NYU Stern. Professor Dunbar has taught courses in managing organizations, management and organizational analysis, organization theory and research methods.

Professor Dunbar has been at Stern for more than 30 years. He is interested in how managers support organizational stability and also facilitate change.
