  • Comment: Just because this is a translation does not make it right for the English Wikipedia. This reads like a CV, not like a concise article. It should be about 1/3 the length, with only really major achievements not everything. Sections such as "Public activity" are pretty much irrelevant. Ldm1954 (talk) 15:26, 26 January 2024 (UTC)
  • Comment: Not enough independent, significant coverage. Not enough citations on Google Scholar. WikiOriginal-9 (talk) 07:20, 5 November 2023 (UTC)
  • Comment: Sourcing and notability requirements are not the same for all language versions of Wikipedia. The article "re-creator" acknowledged paid editing, however is it known if public relations editing occurred in the Hebrew article? Graywalls (talk) 22:50, 2 November 2023 (UTC)
  • Comment: What is the source for the date of birth? See WP:BLP. All statements, starting with the date of birth, need to be sourced or removed. Greenman (talk) 22:45, 2 November 2023 (UTC)

Simon L. Dolan (Hebrew: שמעון לנדאו דולן, born 1947) is a professor and a researcher at the Advantere School of Management, which is part of Comillas Pontifical University in Madrid, and Georgetown University. He served as a professor at McGill University, University of Montreal, and ESADE Business School at University Ramon Llull, Barcelona, Spain, where he held the "future of work" chair. [1][2][3]

Dolan's research work focuses on organizational psychology and human resource management.[1] He is also the Global Future of Work Foundation (GFWF) president.[4]

Early life and education[edit]

Simon Landau Dolan was born to holocaust survivor parents, David and Lola. He grew up in Beit Eshel, and later in Ness Ziona.

In 1968, upon completing his military service as a combat paramedic in the IDF’s Armored Corps, Dolan studied at the Department of Labor Studies at Tel Aviv University and graduated in 1971. [3]

In 1971-1973, he continued his graduate studies in the Department, specializing in human resource management. At the same time, he studied for a master's degree in organizational behavior at the Leon Recanati Graduate School of Business Administration.

While studying for an accredited degree, he moved to the University of Minnesota, in the United States and continued his studies in the doctoral program. He graduated with a master's degree in 1976 in organizational psychology and human resource management. [5]

His doctoral thesis was completed in 1977 under the supervision of Prof. Richard Hall and Prof. John Campbell.[6]

Academic career[edit]

Dolan was a professor at McGill University and the University of Montreal, between 1978 and 2002. He was a guest lecturer at Boston University, University of Colorado Boulder, ESSEC Business School in Paris (France), University of Cádiz, Pablo de Olavide University in Seville (Spain) and Tel Aviv University.[7]

Between 2001 and 2020, he served as a full professor at ESADE Business School (University Ramon Llull). He also served as the head of the Institute for Labor Studies, and later, as the "future of work" chair at the same institution.[8]

In 2022 he was appointed full professor and senior researcher at the Advantere School of Management in Madrid.[8]

Research[edit]

Managing by values[edit]

Dolan developed the management model acronymed "Managing by values", which deals with shaping organizational culture through the identification of its most important shared values. The model identifies three axes of values: Ethical, Economic and Emotional-developmental in a triaxial structure.[9]

In this model, the value of trust was identified as the "value of values" (mega-value) which is a central axis for maintaining a balanced and sustainable healthy organization. Similarly, it applies to sustain effective leadership and a work-family balance.[10]

Stress and burnout management[edit]

Dolan also developed the "Chronic Stress Management" model, which eventually led to the development of a diagnostic tool acronym: The Stress Map. The latter deals with mapping the sources of stress (in work and non-work contexts), the modulating variables, consequences in terms of signs (physiological and biological) and symptoms (psychological and somatic) measured by a new algorithm called density (frequency multiplied by severity). This diagnostic tool is based on the principles of gamification.[11] [9]

Professional work outside universities[edit]

In 1978 Dolan founded an international consulting corporation in the field of value-based human resource management, Gestión MDS Management Inc. The company has offices in Montreal (Canada) and Rabat (Morocco). In 2017 he co-founded the e-Merit Academy (along with Prof. Mario Raich from Zurich). The academy is dedicated to developing managers in the era of globalization, digital and cyber-age. [12][13]

Dolan serves as the president and academic director of the "Center for Management and Training by Values" in Israel, which is a satellite office of Gestion MDS Inc.[14]

He is also president of a Spanish values training center ZINQUO, and CEO of a technological venture called myDova.[15][16]

Dolan published over 85 books, many of which were translated into several languages.[3]
