Bio
Raynold W. Alorse, PhD
‘Indefatigable Researcher’ is the phrase that comes to mind when I think about Dr. Gunter (‘Dr. G’). I have had the pleasure of working with Dr. G over the last six months at Public Governance International (PGI). Drawing on his multidisciplinary academic background and experience in communications, labour and policy, Dr. G brings rich insights to his research work and team discussions. Dr. G is relentless, competent, personable and he is not afraid of hard work. He would be a great asset to any organization.
Kay Aspinall
Dr. Gunter is one of the most engaging professors from whom I have had the pleasure of learning. He is an excellent communicator who conveys his ideas clearly and effectively, and he has a unique ability to find and illustrate connections between theory and practical examples. In his research, Dr. Gunter approaches challenges with determination, creative problem-solving, and passion for his work. His positive attitude and inquiring mind make him a great addition to any team.
