A native of Brazil, Gamaliel Perruci is
the Dean of the McDonough Center for Leadership and Business
and a McCoy Professor of Leadership Studies at Marietta
College (Ohio). He has a doctorate in political science
(1991) from the University of Florida and a master’s in
international journalism (1986) and undergraduate degrees
in economics and journalism (1984) from Baylor University
in Texas. His dissertation focused on the political economy
of U.S.-Brazilian relations. His main research area today
is the impact of globalization on leadership education.
As dean of the McDonough Center, Dr. Perruci has developed
a vision for international leadership education that includes
the expansion of exchange with foreign universities and
colleges. For example, the McDonough Center hosted a group
of 10 Hungarian students in the spring of 2004 as part of
an exchange relationship with Kodolanyi College. In the
summer of 2004, the McDonough Center will host a group of
15 MBA students from a Brazilian university. The Center
will provide the Brazilian students with a two-week seminar
dealing with international business leadership issues. Dr.
Perruci has been published widely in the area of internationalism
and Latin American leadership issues. He recently contributed
a chapter, entitled “Citizen-Leadership and Community Action
in Latin America,” in Democracy and Globalization,
edited by Charles Nieman (Kent State University Press, forthcoming).
Aside from teaching and his administrative duties, Dr. Perruci
also serves as a consultant to colleges and corporations
dealing with international strategic planning. His most
recent consulting assignment includes an evaluation of international
initiatives by Birmingham-Southern College under a grant
from the Christian A. Johnson Endeavor Foundation and an
evaluation of leadership initiatives by Zayed University
in Dubai, United Arab Emirates. He has been a frequent guest
of the BBC World Service program ("De Olho no Mundo"), broadcast
to Brazil. He is also a review board member of Management
Decision, journal published by Emerald/MCB, Bradford, England,
and a board member of the Ely Chapman Education Foundation
(Ohio).
