As the world navigates the impacts of AI, we’re returning to the oldest thinking machine of all: the theatre.

Managers everywhere are using AI to reimagine human-made systems, such as healthcare, supply chains, and finance. But today’s podcast guests remind us that art still has much to teach us – and we better not forget it.

Laurette Dubé is a Professor Emerita in Consumer Psychology at McGill University. Paul Yachnin is a Tomlinson Professor of Shakespeare Studies, also at McGill University. They call on managers and leaders to engage with the arts to solve complex problems and keep humanity at the centre of their work.

In today’s podcast, we’re doing exactly that. With host Eric Dicaire, Professors Dubé and Yachnin turn to Shakespeare’s Macbeth for lessons on how to change the world. What does Macbeth’s history of violence teach us about healing trauma? How is the murder of King Duncan connected to the manosphere? What does Macbeth’s story teach us about morality and the pursuit of power?

This podcast is a preview of the upcoming event, “Thinking Inside Macbeth,” happening on January 28, 2026. Details are here.

Eric Dicaire, Delve’s managing editor, hosts this episode.

AI in education has been the subject of scrutiny for some time now. How do we know students are properly engaging with the course material? What will happen to their critical thinking if AI writes their papers for them? Will AI lead to intellectual atrophy?

In this episode of the McGill Delve podcast, we sit down with Professor Genevieve Basselier, the VP of Programs at the Desautels Faculty of Management at McGill University. She oversees all of the teaching in the faculty, and she thinks that AI could be an opportunity for professors and students to enhance learning – but only if it’s handled correctly.

In this conversation, we explore how AI challenges the role of the professor in the classroom, raises questions about the value of reading and critical thinking, and how professors can leverage this technology for more equitable classrooms.

Today on the Delve podcast, we’re talking about job hopping.

How long should you stay in a job? When will a prospective employer penalise you for switching jobs too often? How should you plan my career accordingly? Common questions for career-oriented people.

Thankfully, Professors Matissa Hollister and Xavier St-Denis looked into it. In a recent study, they measured the impact of job hopping on employability. And their findings dispel some myths around job hopping, and they provide crucial insights on how to build a steady and successful career.

Eric Dicaire, Delve’s managing editor, hosts this episode. Matissa Hollister is a professor of Organisational Behaviour at McGill University. Xavier St-Denis is an assistant professor at the Institut de la recherche scientifique in Montreal. Together they discuss:

- What are some commonly held beliefs about job-hopping?

- Why might employers look dimly on job hoppers?

- Why are some occupations more penalised for job hopping than others?

- How long should employees stay in a job to avoid being penalised?
