Robert A. Phillips is a Professor of Business Administration and Ruffin Professor of Business Ethics at the Darden School of Business, University of Virginia, where his work sits at the intersection of strategic management, business ethics, and stakeholder theory.

His research connects foundational questions in ethics with the everyday realities of governance and strategy, aiming to make management theory both more accurate and more useful.
