Celia Moore is Professor of Organisational Behaviour in the Department of Management and Entrepreneurship at Imperial College Business School, where she also directs the Centre for Responsible Leadership. Prior to joining Imperial, she was an Associate Professor at Bocconi University in Milan, Italy and an Assistant Professor at London Business School. In 2011 she was a Visiting Scholar at the Harvard Business School, and for the 2011-2012 academic year was a Fellow at the Edmond J. Safra Center for Ethics at Harvard University.
Her research and teaching sits at the intersection of leadership and ethics. She is particularly interested in supporting individuals to enact their moral agency responsibly. She teaches courses in Organisational Behaviour, Leadership, and Ethics to MBAs, Masters' students, and executives. She has worked with several organizations on how to support more ethical behavior at work, including the Financial Conduct Authority (UK), the National Health Service (UK), the Institute of Chartered Accountants of England and Wales (London, UK), the International Anti-Corruption Academy (Vienna, Austria), the Brookings Institute (Washington, DC), as well as several major financial institutions. She is an Academic Fellow of the Ethics and Compliance Initiative, and sits on the Advisory Board of the Cary M. Maguire Center for Ethics in Financial Services at the American College.
Her research focuses on how organizations unintentionally facilitate morally problematic behavior, and on how individuals can manage themselves and design their organizations to better resist these outcomes. More recently, her focus has turned to how individuals navigate morally consequential decisions in their professional lives and challenge legitimate authority figures when they feel morally compelled to do so. It has been published in Academy of Management Journal, Organization Science, Journal of Applied Psychology, Journal of Personality and Social Psychology, Academy of Management Annals, Research in Organizational Behavior, Personnel Psychology, Organizational Behavior and Human Decision Processes, and the Journal of Experimental Social Psychology, as well as several edited volumes. Her work has been featured in the Financial Times, Economist, Wall Street Journal, Forbes, and Fast Company, as well as on NPR, the CBC, and the BBC.
Before returning to academia, she spent a very happy year working at Ms. Magazine, as well as eight years in human resources consulting and research, five of which were at Catalyst, a nonprofit that works with business to build workplaces that work for women. While there, she opened Catalyst’s first satellite office in Toronto. She earned her B.A. in Philosophy from McGill University and holds Master's in Public Administration from Columbia University's School of International and Public Affairs. She completed her doctoral work at the Rotman School of Management at the University of Toronto.
