Talia Haddad

Background

Talia Haddad is on the faculty of the Department of Management and holds a Ph.D. from the University of Iowa. Before Porter, Talia held an HR leadership role.

Talia's research focuses on business analytics, with related work in international business; undergraduates are involved in the lab most terms.

Areas of expertise

• Business analytics
• International business
• Undergraduate research and project mentoring

Teaching

Talia regularly teaches courses in Business Administration, Leadership Studies, Entrepreneurship. Specific sections and syllabi are listed in the class schedule each term.

Courses lean on current problems from the field: students read recent work, reproduce a result or method, and then extend it. Talia builds in low-stakes practice before graded work and gives written feedback on drafts.

Advising and office hours

Talia advises students in the Management programs and holds weekly office hours during the fall and spring terms, posted on the office door and in the course pages. Prospective students are welcome to email to arrange a visit or a call.

Advising conversations usually cover course sequencing, whether to add a minor or a concentration, and how classroom work connects to internships, research, or graduate study. Students who are undecided are welcome; part of the job is helping them narrow things down.

Recent and representative work

Talia's recent activity is a mix of peer-reviewed work, conference talks, and student-involved projects in business analytics and international business. Representative items:

• A peer-reviewed article on business analytics in a disciplinary journal.
• A conference paper on international business, co-authored with an undergraduate researcher.
• An internally funded project applying business analytics to a regional partner's problem.

Titles and venues here are illustrative. UW–Porter Falls is fictional; Talia has no real publication record.
