Education and career

Saunders was born in Canada.[6] He graduated from York University in 1979 with a BA in psychology, then went on to complete a MA (1980) and PhD (1984) at the University of Western Ontario, studying social psychology.[5] He began his career as a postdoctoral fellow at the Fuqua School of Business, Duke University. He returned to Canada 2 years later in 1986, first as an assistant professor at the Faculty of Management (now Desautels Faculty of Management) at McGill University, then an associate professor in 1992,[7] during which he started and directed the MBA Japan program.[8] He also had a brief stay at HEC Paris as a visiting professor from 1992 to 1993.[7]

In 1999, the University of Calgary appointed Saunders as the Dean of its Haskayne School of Business, where he also became a full professor. In 2002, Queen's University announced he would succeed Margot Northey as the Dean of the Queen's School of Business (now Smith School of Business).[3] He assumed the role on July 1, 2003.[1]

Saunders resigned from the deanship for an administrative leave in 2019,[2] while retaining his professor position at Queen's.[9] Although reported to return to his professor position in 2023,[2][10] he joined Moscow School of Management SKOLKOVO as a professor in October 2021.[9][11]

Saunders has co-authored several business textbooks, including Essentials of Negotiation (7th ed.)[12] and Negotiation (8th ed.).[13]

Saunders has been an executive-in-residence at Forthlane Partners since 2020.[14]
