WARRINGTON COLLEGE OF BUSINESS

P rominently placed as the entrance to the

University of Florida, our corner of The

Gator Nation is where we develop dedicated

business leaders. From here, we influence

the world, pushing to stay on the forefront

of research and education. But this isn’t

about a classroom. The Warrington College of

Business is designed to help students change

the way they view obstacles in the real world

and prepare them to raise the bar.

Warrington receives strong rankings by the

most respected publications in the world. From

undergraduate to Ph.D., Warrington is constantly

competing with other elite business schools.

FROM THE DEAN’S DESK

The student experience is changing. As students prefer more flexibility, Warrington

continues to prioritize ways that students can feel connected to our campus community

no matter where they are. We continued to move forward in that area during the 2018–19

academic year.

Warrington unveiled a unique student badging system to increase involvement of

undergraduate students, created a new way for online students to feel connected to

campus through orientation, added more flexibility to our online programs and added

more programming in business analytics and data sciences. They all improve the student

experience and create a strong student connection in an online world. Students who may

never step foot on the Warrington campus will still know what it means to be a Business Gator.

As I begin my final year as dean, the eyes of the College remain on the future. We are

past the halfway point of the university’s ambitious fundraising campaign and support

continues to grow. The generous contributions of alumni and friends ensure we will

continue to invest in intellectual capital, deliver high quality teaching programs and

strengthen the student experience beyond the classroom.

We remain focused on molding students who are ready to impact the business world. It’s

the priority of all that we do.

Thank you,

DON’T SELFIE OR SNAP ITR I C H A R D L U T Z (JC Penney Professor)

If you’re attending a destination wedding, taking a tour or simply

celebrating the birthday of someone dear, a study by a group of

researchers involving the University of Florida Warrington College of

Business and Washington University in St. Louis came to both a new

scientific conclusion and a kernel of everyday advice:

→ Put the cellphone/camera down

→ Enjoy the important moment

“We get so focused on picture-taking, we miss the experience

itself,” said Robyn LeBoeuf, professor of marketing at Washington

University’s Olin Business School and co-author of a study involving

more than five different surveys and 718 combined participants.

The study was led by Warrington alumna Gia Nardini (BSBA ’10, Ph.D.

’16) of the University of Denver. “She had gone to a wildlife preserve,

but was so focused on getting pictures, she came home thinking, ‘Aw,

I missed it.’” LeBoeuf said. “We’ve all had those kind of experiences.”

Thus, Nardini, LeBoeuf and JC Penney Professor of Marketing Richard

J. Lutz combined on a research project published online Jan. 10 and

forthcoming in Psychology and Marketing titled, “How and When

Taking Pictures Undermines the Enjoyment of Experiences.” The

snapshot finding: If the event is otherwise highly enjoyable, pausing

to take photographs will detract from a person’s engagement and

enjoyment—and potentially affect the business visited.

PROBABILISTIC SELLING A K E Y F O R C O M P A N I E S S E L L I N G V E R T I C A L LY D I F F E R E N T I A T E D P R O D U C T S

JANICE CARILLO (PricewaterhouseCoopers Professor)

and AMY PAN (Assistant Professor)

If you were in the process of booking a hotel room in Miami, but

suddenly received a notification that you could potentially reserve a

room with an ocean view while only paying the rate of a room with a

view of the parking lot, would you be intrigued to learn more?

This selling technique is called probabilistic selling, which works

by offering consumers a predetermined product assortment (a room

with a view of the ocean or a room with a view of the parking lot) ,

but the consumer doesn’t know which product they will receive until

after making their purchase.

According to new research from the University of Florida

Warrington College of Business Information Systems and Operations

Management Department, consumers who are attracted by offers like

the hotel example exhibit salient thinking behavior, meaning they

focus their limited attention on and overweigh the salient attribute

of a product in their perception.

The study by Ph.D. alumnus and current Assistant Professor at the

University of Science and Technology of China Quan Zheng, Assistant

Professor Amy Pan and PricewaterhouseCoopers Professor Janice

Carrillo suggests that probabilistic selling can improve a company’s

profit with salient thinkers even when the strategy does not emerge

with rational consumers for a vertically differentiated product.

CHECK THE FEES ON YOUR 401(K)C H R I S T O P H E R J A M E S (Wil l iam H. Dial/SunTrust Eminent Scholar)

What do you dream of doing after you retire? Maybe you’d like to

travel the world, buy a vacation home on the beach or, perhaps, get

back to work by starting the business you’ve always been passionate

about. Whatever it is you choose to do, you’re going to need some

extra cash to help make your retirement dreams a reality, on top of

the expenses you’ll need day-to-day.

You might be able to save some of that extra money now thanks to

fee disclosure requirements on your 401(k) or 403(b) retirement plan,

according to new research from the University of Florida Warrington

College of Business.

“Fees have an important impact on your ability to save for retirement,”

said Dr. Christopher James, William H. Dial/SunTrust Eminent Scholar

at Warrington. “[The fee] might seem like a small amount, but if you

think about that amount over a savings timeframe of 20 or 25 years,

your retirement fund could end up earning 10 percent less by the

time you retire.”

In a paper in the Journal of Financial Economics, James and

Warrington alumni Dominique C. Badoer (Ph.D. ’14) and Charles P.

Costello (Ph.D. ’18) , study the impact of a 2012 Department of Labor

rule that required retirement plan service providers to disclose the

indirect fees they earn through revenue sharing agreements with

mutual funds.

‘PERFECT’ EMPLOYEES BEWARE Y O U R P E R F E C T I O N I S M

M I G H T B E D E T R I M E N T A L

B R I A N S W I D E R (Assistant Professor)

Think back to your last job interview. When asked about your

biggest weakness, did you respond, “I’m a perfectionist”? As you

might expect, this is a frequent response among job candidates, as

perfectionism is commonly thought of as a beneficial quality.

However, according to new research from the University of Florida

Warrington College of Business, perfectionism might not be the best

quality to pride yourself on. In fact, it might be detrimental to your

personal and professional prosperity.

“Individuals’ perfectionistic tendencies, especially at work, can

significantly hinder their well-being,” Brian Swider, assistant

professor of management at the Warrington College of Business

said. “While they think perfection is a noble goal, it probably is

going to have serious repercussions in their lives and on their

abilities [at work].”

In the Journal of Applied Psychology study, “Is Perfect Good? A

Meta-Analysis of Perfectionism in the Workplace,” Swider, along

with Dr. Laurens Bujold Steed of Miami University and Dana Harari

and Amy P. Breidenthal of the Georgia Institute of Technology, found

that the consequences of high-levels of perfectionism, especially for

failure-avoiding perfectionism, did not appear to be outweighed by

its advantages.

The Heavener School is launching a program that will provide employers with access to the best students in a more sophisticated way while simultaneously improving the Heavener student experience.

The program is called Gator Ready, and no business school has ever

done it before at this scale with more than 5,500 students at Heavener.

This innovative platform enables Heavener students to showcase their

specific leadership and career readiness capabilities to employers,

measured across eight competencies. Recruiters will have access to each

student’s competencies to help find a perfect fit for their position.

Students will also experience a more immersive relationship with their

advisors through Gator Ready. Their extracurricular and co-curricular

activities will be tracked in a measurable way, allowing advisors to

provide more meaningful feedback for the student’s Heavener experience.

“By tracking and curating the specific leadership and career experiences

of our students, we can articulate their skill development in a way that

inspires students to deepen their engagement while strengthening the

hiring process for recruiters,” said Heavener School Dean Alex Sevilla.

Through Gator Ready, students will be measured based on their

involvement in activities proven to yield future business leaders.

Examples of this engagement include enrollment in rigorous classes,

attending guest lectures from industry leaders, studying and interning

abroad, and experiencing leadership development firsthand through

Heavener leadership programs and student organizations. Gator Ready

will also generate sophisticated data metrics, which will help the School

better understand which programs and experiences are making students

more hirable.

LEARNING TO

Give BackThe Gator Student Investment Fund (GSIF)

made a $13,440 donation to the Machen Florida

Opportunity Scholars Program this spring.

In 2017, the fund announced it would be making annual payments

through an endowment-like structure that pays three percent of the

portfolio value to the Machen Florida Opportunity Scholars Program,

which pursues the primary goal of graduating first-generation, low-

income undergraduate students.

GSIF, a student-managed investment fund that gives members a

realistic asset management experience, has seen the fund grow to

$561,667 assets under management.

“I can’t even begin to overstate how impressed I am with the whole

program and the kids coming through it,” said William Harrell (MBA

’04), who sits on the board that oversees GSIF. “When Dr. Brown

started it, I thought “OK, he’s got some exceptional kids right now,

this will last a couple years and then peter out.” Instead, it has

become a juggernaut.”

GIVING ONLINE STUDENTS A HOMEAs Warrington offers more flexibility through the UF MBA

program, the College wanted to help online students feel like

members of The Gator Nation.

UF MBA recently introduced an online program that requires zero

campus visits, which created a challenge for Warrington’s Teaching

and Learning Center—how do you make students feel at home in a

location they’ve never visited?

The answer came through a shift in orientation. Before the fully

online program was introduced, all UF MBA students came to

campus to go through orientation. However, as UF MBA wanted to

offer more flexible programming, the shift to a fully online program

option meant some students would never step foot on campus. The

challenge was to make them feel connected to the sights and sounds

of UF, Warrington and UF MBA staff members without ever seeing

campus in person.

“Feeling like you are a part of a community is key to any student’s

experience and can be missed if students are simply going through

a boring orientation that tells them solely how to check their holds

or who registers them for classes,” said Megan Leroy, Director of

the Teaching and Learning Center. “The student experience is much

bigger than that. We want to show students that we care about them,

their careers, and their experience at Warrington.”

ADDED FLEXIBILITYThe Bachelor of Arts in Business

Administration program is now

offering four new specializations:

→ Entrepreneurship

→ Professional Selling

→ Real Estate

→ Retailing

BABA students now have increased

flexibility while pursuing their degree.

In partnership with Barron’s in Education, Warrington is

offering complementary Barron’s digital subscription access for

the College’s students, faculty and staff thanks to a two-year

sponsorship generously made by Tommy and Laura McBride

and Dallas-based wealth management firm Crockett, McBride &

Associates—Merrill Lynch.

Barron’s is America’s premier financial magazine, providing in-depth

analysis and commentary on stocks, investments and how markets

are moving across the U.S. and world. The Barron’s in Education

program is designed to provide students and faculty with access to

the same real-time content, perspectives and analysis that is utilized

by Barron’s subscribers.

“We’re proud to partner with Barron’s to provide our students, faculty

and staff access to top-tier financial news and insights,” said John

Kraft, Dean of the Warrington College of Business. “We’re also

infinitely grateful to Tommy and Laura McBride for their support of

this program, which will nicely complement the finance and business

lessons our students receive from our outstanding faculty.”

GIVING THE GIFT OF

KNOWLEDGE

As the demand for business

analytics and data sciences

increases at companies around the

world, Warrington is making sure

students are prepared.

The College hired Jim Hoover, who previously served as Managing Director and Client Account Lead for Accenture’s account with the Navy, to teach analytics. More faculty members will be hired in this field as Warrington increases its resources in a field that is rapidly growing across the globe. Warrington aims to become a leader in business analytics and data sciences by producing students ready to make an impact in the growing industry.

The added specialization will also produce a new Master of Science in Business Analytics program in the future.

JAMISON APPOINTED TO ENERGY TASK FORCE B Y P U E R T O R I C O G O V E R N O R

Dr. Mark A. Jamison, Director of the Public

Utility Research Center and Gunter Professor,

was appointed by Puerto Rico Governor Ricardo

Rosselló Nevares to serve on a Blue Ribbon Task

Force to rebuild the Commonwealth’s energy

policies and regulation following the devastation

caused by Hurricane Maria in 2017.

The project, “Strategizing and Electric Energy Policy and Regulatory

Framework in Puerto Rico,” seeks to establish a reliable, affordable

and sustainable electric energy grid system as well as develop a

policy and legal framework to provide a regulatory regime for a

possibly privatized electric energy grid system in Puerto Rico.

A team of four Heavener School of Business students took first

place at the Thammasat Undergraduate Business Challenge

(TUBC) in Bangkok, Thailand.

Cathleen Maluda (BSBA Finance

some of the top business schools

around the world including

University of California—Berkeley, University of Southern California

Marshall School of Business, Canada’s Queen’s University, Australia’s

Queensland University of Technology, Denmark’s Copenhagen

Business School and National University of Singapore, among others.

The Thammasat Undergraduate Business Challenge is an international

business case competition bringing together undergraduate students

from leading business schools around the world.

HEAVENER STUDENTS WIN Respected International

Case Competition

Warrington students don’t stay confined to a classroom.

They’re learning around the world about different economies

and how to put their knowledge to work.

“While there are many differences between American and Chinese

business culture, sometimes the greatest lessons come from paying

attention to what bonds us together. My GIE experience opened my

eyes to what is possible when you set clear, measurable goals and

invest in your people—two integral ingredients to success in either

culture.” — Sara Beth Hoover (BSBA ’15, MBA ’18)

“Exploring Chile in all its wonder with my fellow classmates was the

most valuable experience from this trip and is a treasure I will have

with me for the rest of my career.” — Andrew Dale (BSBA ’18, MSRE ’19)

“We had a diverse mix of industries in Morocco, from airlines to

concrete manufacturing to IT. What was impressive about these

groups was their knowledge of not only their own industries but also

their economy as a whole.” —Taylor Boyer, (MBA ’19)

A Global Perspective

Hosting the GlobeTwenty teams of undergraduate students traveled to the

Warrington College of Business for the third annual Heavener

International Case Competition.

Teams from Asia, Canada, Europe, the Middle East, Oceania and the

United States competed for the coveted Gator Trophy and the chance

to participate in the Champions Trophy Case Competition, of which

the Heavener International Case Competition is a qualifying case

competition.

“One of the things I’m most proud of about the Heavener International

Case Competition is that after its first year, we were selected to be a

Champions Trophy Case Competition qualifier,” said Dr. Sean Limon,

Heavener International Case Competition faculty advisor and Senior

Lecturer at Warrington’s Management Communication Center. “It

shows how quickly everyone was impressed with our competition.”

Teams spent the week of the Heavener International Case

Competition thinking critically about how to solve real business

problems and receiving a taste of American culture, including a

barbecue tailgate at UF’s Ben Hill Griffin Stadium, a visit to see

alligators and wildlife at La Chua Trail and a trip to Disney World.

Hard Work Pays OffTWO HEAVENER STUDENTS RECEIVE COMPETITIVE INTERNATIONAL SCHOLARSHIP

Warrington students Alejandra Carrasquilla and Rahul Kheraj

received the prestigious and competitive U.S. Department of

State’s Benjamin A. Gilman International Scholarship.

The Gilman Scholarship is a grant program that enables students

of limited financial means to study or intern abroad, thereby

gaining skills critical to the United States’ national security and

economic prosperity.

Carrasquilla, a second-year general business student specializing

in international studies and minoring in French and Francophone

studies, completed her study abroad experience at the SKEMA

Business School in Sophia Antipolis, France. Kheraj, a third-year

student studying information systems, will study abroad at the

Universidad Carlos III de Madrid in Spain.

Ensuring QualityWarrington’s Business Career Services office operates with

four goals in mind. After its first full year of serving the entire

Warrington campus, the office implemented this four-part

strategy to make sure its impact was felt by all business students.

Every event or student touch point with the office runs through

these four pillars to guarantee it meets office objectives.

A W A R E N E S S The office is actively creating

ways to increase student awareness of its services.

R E A C H The office aims to reach every

Warrington student at least once during their time

as a student.

E X P E R I E N C E The office ensures that every

event it hosts has a consistent experience across

the board for students and employers.

D AT A The office obtains as much data as

possible and tracks it to ensure its practices are as

effective as possible.

Free Venture Assistance

The Veterans Entrepreneurship Program is in its fifth year

as a free resource to help veterans with service-connected

disabilities and those who have uniquely distinguished

themselves in the military who are looking to start a new

venture or grow an existing business.

Jorge Avalos and Jason McNamara were two of more than 25

participants who benefited from the week on campus. Avalos is

creating a business to build custom bicycles while McNamara is

building the first outdoor business directory for small businesses.

CARBON EMISSIONS TRACKING APP

Wins Big Idea Competition

LiveGreen won first place at the 2019 Big Idea Gator

Business Plan Competition.

Led by CEO and Co-Founder Brian De Souza and CTO and Co-

Founder Pablo Garces, LiveGreen is a mobile platform that

empowers people to reduce their carbon footprint so they can

be part of the solution to end climate change in one generation.

LiveGreen, which benefitted from Warrington’s Gator Hatchery,

does so by allowing people to track, reduce and offset their daily

emissions. Through LiveGreen’s proprietary database, the platform

makes it easy to track daily emissions from food, purchases, and

transport; much like MyFitnessPal but for the environment.

The Big Idea Competition is a four-month event designed to help

students grow their business ideas with a chance to win over

$40,000 in prizes. There were 250 submissions this year.

The competition offered $40,000 in total prizes and $25,000 to the winner.

Giving With a PurposeWarrington’s Kelley A. Bergstrom Real Estate

Center continues to grow its prominence in the

state of Florida. Because of a $13 million gift

made by Bergstrom, the Center will be able to

collaborate with UF colleges to solve problems

that are impacting Floridians every day.

The goal is important—elevate the Center in the eyes of

the university and the state, turning it into the standard

for real estate expertise.

Bergstrom’s gift will allow the Center to better publicize

research from its real estate faculty and other faculty

across campus. The Center will work with other areas of

UF that could impact the real estate industry—such as the

UF Water Institute, the College of Design, Construction &

Planning, and the UF Transportation Institute—to make

research more visible through a quarterly publication.

The gift will also fund new research opportunities and

allow the Center to hire faculty to lead research efforts.

Bergstrom’s gift is inspiring others to join in giving to

elevate the Center.

Prioritizing FacultyThe Go Greater campaign has allowed Warrington to

increase its faculty support. Six new professorships and

chairs have been raised because of the campaign. The

campaign has also received $1.12 million of university

funding to incentivize faculty endowment giving.

→ $100+ million raised for faculty support

through the Go Greater Campaign

→ 60 endowed faculty positions
