Dr. Victor Stone

From the Director

Dr. Victor Stone knows what abilities he wants his students to have when they complete the Champlain MBA Program. “I want my graduates to be knowledgeable about the myriad complex issues that face a modern business enterprise and to feel empowered to tackle those issues.”

Because they integrate what they are learning in classes with the challenges they are facing at work, Champlain MBA students have the distinctive opportunity “to connect the dots between theory and practice, not only in the classroom, but also where it counts: in the workplace.” With no lag time between what they learn and how they apply it at work, “students can experience real success with their new knowledge, and employers can benefit from the creativity and hard work of their student-employees.

Dr. Stone has 25 years’ experience in a variety of management and senior management roles in supply chain management, business operations, plans and controls, pricing and competitive analysis, business transformation, IT implementation, and strategy development with IBM. He has been an instructor with Champlain College’s graduate programs since their inceptions. Dr. Stone earned a B.A. in Biology from the University of Idaho, an MBA from the University of Utah, and a Ph.D. in Organization and Management from Capella University. He is a member of the Academy of Management and has research interests in Web-based business strategy formulation, operations, e-business, and organizational change.
