Culture Index Validation and Relationship Analysis: Enhancing Organizational Culture Assessment

This project, a collaborative effort between Saint Mary’s University and Wise Leadership Inc., seeks to address the pressing need for a more evidence-based approach to measuring workplace culture, especially in a post-COVID environment. Wise Leadership Inc., committed to enhancing organizational culture and leadership, faces the challenge of refining their tools and methods for more accurate and actionable culture measurement. The project will employ a multifaceted approach, including validation research, hands-on data collection and survey implementation, and comprehensive data analysis to assess the operational culture index’s impact alongside the culture actualization index. Specifically, data will be collected through an online data collection site (i.e., Prolific). A total of 400 participants from diverse jobs will be invited to participate in the study. Validation research will follow best practices in survey research, ensuring the reliability and validity of the measurement tools. By partnering with a Saint Mary’s University intern, Wise Leadership Inc. gains the expertise and resources needed to elevate their services and provide empirical evidence-driven guidance, enabling them to offer better services. Ultimately, this project aims to improve organizational culture and leadership, building on prior success in creating the Culture Actualization Index and extending the focus to holistically measure culture, fostering more inclusive, collaborative, and growth-oriented workplaces.

Development of Processes to Expedite Development Approval and Construction

Development approvals is overseen by the City Planning Department Current Planning Group. This group provides review of planning issues related to directing, managing and developing land uses according to the City of Niagara Falls Official Plan and Zoning By-law. Development is an on-going project within the City which involves pre-consultation, application, review (which may or may not have an open house, public meeting, financial agreements) up to the final approval. The process can vary from short and long timelines and can be either simple or complex. All this work is a requirement prior to any development being able to receive a building permit to construct whether it is for residential or commercial.
The City faces challenges in the processing of development applications in an efficient way. In particular, the City needs to ensure necessary housing projects, including affordable housing, are developed while maintaining planning principles and conformity to Provincial, Regional and City policies.
To ensure these projects are delivered, the City is working on initiatives to ensure applications are processed efficiently and housing is delivered. The role of the Planning Student Intern is to develop and complete initiatives to ensure necessary projects and housing are realized. The Planning Student is intended to work primarily in the development division.

Hyperspectral Intelligence Go to Market Plan Development

HII is at an inflection point in their growth. Upon raising sufficient capital, the organization would like to expand their market share
in new and existing markets. The company requires a well thought out go to market plan to set the path forward in their sales
growth. This plan will include in-depth market and business culture analysis, encompassing market size, customer profiles, buying
behaviors, business etiquette, negotiation styles, and target customer identification for one or more countries. Following this, a
sales approach (direct or indirect) recommendation will be made, coupled with logistical considerations for international trade and
equipment storage. A comprehensive marketing strategy tailored to the local culture will be developed, alongside a Go-to-Market
(GTM) budget in CAD and ROI estimates. The project also involves a detailed examination of legal and regulatory considerations,
including their implications on servicing and rental contracts, as well as tax considerations, proposing the most tax-efficient business
structure. Finally, the project will address risks, such as non-payment of receivables and IP theft, with mitigation strategies,
potentially involving collaboration with legal or accounting professionals when necessary.

Formation de scientifiques et d’ingénieurs dans le domaine des biocarburants et des biocommodités

Ce projet de recherche tend à soutenir l’effort de recherche et de développement ainsi que de formation de personnel hautement qualifié de la Chaire de recherche industrielle en Biocarburants et Biocommodités de l’Université de Sherbrooke. Les objectifs de cette démarche tendent à faire avancer la recherche et le développement de pointe dans le domaine des biocarburants et des biocommodités via 4 plateformes spécifiques. La première plateforme de recherche sera axée sur l’hydrolyse non-enzymatique de la cellulose, la purification des sucres cellulosiques ainsi que la régénération des réactifs d’hydrolyse. La seconde plateforme visera la conversion de la lignine et des hémicelluloses en produits à valeur ajoutée. Dans le cas des hémicelluloses, l’objectif est de produire du Me-THF, un additif pour l’essence via une conversion préliminaire en furfural. Dans le cas de la lignine, l’objectif consistera à produire à la fois des monomères phénoliques à haute valeur ajoutée, et un additif pour le carburant d’aviation. La troisième plateforme sera orientée vers la valorisation chimique et biologique du gaz de synthèse produit par gazéification ainsi que vers l’utilisation du CO2 comme matière première essentiellement pour en faire des carbonates.

Créer un corpus documentaire sur la Grande Paix de Montréal (1701)

En 2026, ce sera le 325e anniversaire de la signature du traité de paix connu sous le nom de « Grande Paix
de Montréal ». À l’été 1701, 38 nations et plus de 1200 délégués autochtones se sont donné rendez-vous à
Montréal pour signer ce traité qui mettait un terme à près d’un siècle de conflits.
Pointe-à-Callière, cité d’archéologie et d’histoire de Montréal, a célébré en 2001 le 300e anniversaire avec
une exposition et de grands rassemblements culturels. Quelque 25 ans plus tard, le contexte social a
beaucoup changé : vérité et réconciliation, décolonisation, nouvelles études anthropologiques et historiques
nécessitent en effet de revoir cet événement historique sous un jour nouveau. Ce projet produira donc un
corpus documentaire et archivistique analysé et synthétisé de l’histoire de la Grande Paix de Montréal sous
des angles nouveaux tels que le rôle des femmes dans les relations diplomatiques de cet évènement ou
encore le ressenti des contemporains montréalais et autochtones qui reçoivent ce contingent important. Cette
recherche sort de l’ombre de nouvelles voix et permet de créer de nouveaux liens entre les Premières nations
et les canadiens-français, ce qui a un impact majeur pour la Canada et son positionnement récent dans la
Commission de Vérité et Réconciliation.

Circulation des connaissances produites en Argentine et au Canada

Le projet vise à analyser de manière comparative la production et la circulation des connaissances scientifiques en Argentine et au Canada (en mettant l’accent sur le Québec). Il est proposé de poursuivre et d’élargir les collaborations antérieures avec les professeurs superviseurs de l’Université du Québec à Montréal. Une attention particulière sera accordée à la position différenciée que les deux pays occupent dans le système universitaire mondial et cherchera à valider une méthodologie de comparaison entre pays centraux et périphériques. Parmi les dimensions comparables, l’incidence de la publication dans des revues nationales et dans la langue locale (espagnol et français) pour les deux pays sera analysée. Les asymétries existantes (genre, langue, capacité d’édition et de publication scientifique) dans la circulation des connaissances scientifiques dans les deux pays seront observées. Dans une convergence entre sociologie et bibliométrie, il est attendu de combiner des techniques quantitatives de différents types et de contribuer à l’enrichissement de l’approche analytique des circuits de publication scientifique.
