Dr Gregory A. Gardner I teach graduate and undergraduate courses in management, strategy, and international business. I am a two-time Fulbright scholar and have taught at universities in Ukraine and Hungary and specialize in Eastern European economic and business conditions. I advise a number of companies in operations there. I am currently involved in an ongoing research initiative to study the impacts of global climate change on wine production and wine tourism. I am working on that effort with colleagues and students from the US and Portugal, as well as Austria, Hungary, Spain, and Romania. We cannot slow the progress of climate change so we must develop strategies to deal with the results. I am on the board of the regional economic development agency and am actively engaged in helping the region grow economically. I also advise local businesses on strategy and markets and I manage the department's extension site programs in surrounding counties. I am a retired military officer, with extensive experience in Europe, Africa, and the Middle East. I also have corporate experience in management, strategic planning, and international business.
