Nicole Haggerty is an Associate Professor at the Ivey Business School. After completion of her Honors degree in Business Administration from Ivey, she spent 9 years in industry. Her work experience includes top management responsibilities in the marketing and operations functions of a medium sized, service-based firm in London, Ontario. In those roles she collaborated with systems developers to create new services and applications on behalf of Fortune 500 clients and gained extensive experience with the strategic impact of information systems and its role in advancing firm performance. With that experience, she returned to the Ivey Business School in August 1998 to pursue a Ph.D. in Management of Information Systems.

Her research interests center on the intersection of technology and learning. They include research on the influence of technical support on individual learning about technology and individual learning through technology in computer-mediated learning environments. She is also interested in the role of virtual competence in work performance and in the IT competence in business leaders and the role this knowledge plays in facilitating more productive IT investments, IT project success and value extraction from IT resources. Her research has been funded by grants from the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council.

She has 20 years of teaching experience in a wide range of undergraduate and graduate programs including the Ivey Business School, the IMPADE business school in Mexico City, the Department of Computer Science at UWO, the INALDE business school in Bogota, Columbia and the development and delivery of business courses through the Canadian Institute of Management and the Institute of Canadian Bankers.
