Note to Prospective PhD Applicants
My appointment with Stanford Graduate School of Business is in Organizational Behavior, with an additional appointment by courtesy in Psychology. My current research areas are documented in my recent publications, but we have ongoing projects on cultural tightness-looseness; culture and COVID-19; punishment and revenge; organizational conflict cultures; gender, race and negotiation; culture and self control; expatriation; and forgiveness. I am a generalist and other topics are always welcome, especially if your own interests overlap with mine.
