Gary has short cases published in three different books, and in journals as varied as Journal of Management Education, International Journal of Business Administration, Educause Quarterly, and Academy of Management Learning & Education.

Gary is OB1 (essentially, Vice President and “Keeper of the Magic”) for the Management & Organizational Behavior Teaching Society, an international society of approximately 500 members, and has been Program Chair for their annual conference.

His Hobbies/Interests include kayaking on Lake Superior and the Marquette area’s beautiful rivers and inland lakes, singing, racquetball, hiking Marquette’s beautiful woods/river trails and downhill and XC skiing. Dr. Stark loves snow, cool weather, and teaching. You will rarely see a more animated professor.
