Business Journal: What does it mean if someone is expressing anger at work?
Gibson: "Expressing anger is a signal that something is wrong in a workplace and needs to be addressed. Often, anger arises from feelings of inequity: the notion that a person is feeling treated unfairly. Other causes are when a person's goals are blocked or when a worker has a conflict with another worker."

Forum: Biz schools should focus on middle managers
Dr. Donald E. Gibson, dean of the Dolan School of Business, wrote an op-ed that appeared in the newspaper: This class distinction, focusing either on students who can afford the elite or those who can afford only low-cost solutions, misses the importance and usefulness of business schools teaching skills to the "critical middle" - the middle managers, small-business owners and entrepreneurs who can't afford or can't take the time for Harvard or Yale, but who need business insights and skills to effectively manage in their environment or run their own business. The critical middle is where the action is: where business skills can make a real difference.
