For over three decades, Sloane Dugan's activities have focused on refining an action research process with persons, teams, organizations and communities in North America, Asia and Europe, which enables them to create a vision of a good quality of life for themselves, marshal the resources necessary to pursue this vision, and develop the attitudes and skills necessary to move toward their vision.

Dr. Dugan worked as a teacher/community developer in the U.S. Peace Corps in Nepal and then served as regional director of the Peace Corps for all development activities in Eastern Nepal from 1964 to 1969. Then, he worked with the Center for Instructional Development at Syracuse University in Syracuse, New York, as a development and evaluation specialist helping faculties use new social and instructional technologies to transform traditional, large lecture classes into more individualized, self-paced, modules for large enrollment courses. He taught in the University of Kansas= two-year MBA Program, which included a one-year on-the-job internship and prepared city managers for providing leadership to municipalities throughout the United States. Then, he taught at Ottawa University in Ottawa, Kansas, for five years where he created and directed a new undergraduate public administration program which uniquely blended the liberal arts, public administration and internship experiences.

Sloane Dugan joined the Faculty of Management, The University of Calgary, in 1980, where he has continued his activities which blend new venture development and experiential learning. He was one of two faculty members on the Building Committee for the creation and design of Scurfield Hall. He worked for three years with a Donner Foundation funded-project to help First Nations people on three Alberta reserves develop the skills required to start small businesses.

Dr. Dugan was involved in The University of Calgary=s international development activities in Nepal, Thailand and in Bhutan from 1985 to 1995. He co-ordinated the action research process in Nepal which resulted in the Health Development Project, a seven-year $5 million CIDA funded project. During the project=s initial three years (1987-1990), he acted as Canadian team leader and advisor to the Nepali Project Director in Nepal. He continued to take an active advisory role in the Project through 1996, when CIDA refunded the project for another five years.

Since 1995, Sloane Dugan=s interests have shifted from international development in Asia to coaching and leadership development activities in Calgary and Europe. He teaches a leadership and change course in both the Faculty=s Executive MBA Program and the part-time MBA Program. He also teaches the Life and Career Development course in the part-time MBA Program. He also acts as a trainer and coach with programs offered by the International Institute for Management Development in Lausanne, Switzerland and in other countries in Europe. He is a training candidate at the C.G. Jung Institute in Zurich, Switzerland, where he is examining how the mental models of persons influence their personal and professional lives, and learning how to assist persons more consciously make informed decisions.
