Matthew A. Douglas is an Associate Professor in the Department of Management at Baylor University's Hankamer School of Business, serving as Assistant Director of the Christian Leadership and Ethics program and a Serve Hope Fellow. His academic appointment follows a 22-year U.S. Air Force career in aviation maintenance and staff roles.
His educational background includes:
- PhD in Marketing from the University of North Texas (2009)
- MS in Logistics Management from the Air Force Institute of Technology (2003)
- BS in Mathematics from Angelo State University (1996)
Dr. Douglas's research centers on supply chain integrity, transportation safety, and sustainable logistics solutions, with publications spanning Journal of Business Ethics, Transportation Journal, and International Journal of Physical Distribution and Logistics Management. His work uniquely integrates military logistics experience with ethical business frameworks, particularly examining safety climate dynamics in transportation operations and process-oriented approaches to supply chain risk management. Recent scholarship increasingly addresses pandemic impacts on supply chains and sustainable urban mobility systems.
Analysis of his 2021-2025 publications reveals a strategic expansion into interdisciplinary domains while maintaining core expertise in transportation safety. His work bridges operations management with behavioral science to examine pandemic fatigue effects on risk perception, social norm influences on bike-sharing compliance, and ethical buyer-supplier dynamics. This evolution demonstrates responsiveness to emerging global challenges while preserving methodological rigor in logistics research.
Through the Christian Leadership and Ethics initiative, Dr. Douglas contributes to developing faith-integrated leadership frameworks for business contexts, connecting his military service background with ethical decision-making models. His course MGT 3325 (Operations Management) likely incorporates real-world logistics case studies from his Air Force experience.
