Faculty Director

  Margaret A. Neale
John G. McCoy-Banc One Corporation Professor of Organizations and Dispute Resolution; Graduate School of Business Trust Faculty Fellow for 2009-2010; Director of the Managing Teams for Innovation and Success Executive Program; Director of the Influence and Negotiation Strategies Executive Program; Codirector of the Executive Program for Women Leaders

Margaret Neale’s research focuses primarily on negotiation and team performance. Her work has extended judgment and decision-making research from cognitive psychology to the field of negotiation. In particular, she studies cognitive and social processes that produce departures from effective negotiating behavior. Within the context of teams, her work explores aspects of team composition and group process that enhance the ability of teams to share the information necessary for learning and problem solving in both face-to-face and virtual team environments.[View Profile]

Other Stanford Business School Faculty

  Brian Lowery
Associate Professor of Organizational Behavior

Professor Lowery’s research seeks to extend knowledge of individuals' experience of inequality and fairness. His work suggests that individuals distinguish between inequalities framed as advantage as opposed to disadvantage. This finding affects how individuals perceive inequality and the steps they take, if any, to reduce it. Thus, his work sheds light on intergroup conflict and the nature of social justice.

  Robert I. Sutton
Professor of Organizational Behavior (by courtesy); Professor of Management Science and Engineering, School of Engineering; Codirector of the Customer-Focused Innovation Executive Program

Robert Sutton focuses on evidence-based management, the links (and gaps) between managerial knowledge and organizational action, innovation, and organizational performance. His research style emphasizes the development of theory and recommendations for practice on the basis of direct observation of organizational life and interviews with executives, managers, engineers, and other organization members.[View Profile]

  Larissa T. Tiedens
Jonathan B. Lovelace Professor of Organizational Behavior

Professor Tiedens' research is primarily in two areas: (1) the psychology of social hierarchies, and (2) the social context of emotion. She is specifically interested in the psychological processes involved in the creation and maintenance of hierarchical relationships. Her work on emotion is concerned with the effects of emotion on social judgment and with relations between social roles and emotions. [View Profile]

The examples used during daily exercises were real corporate issues that showed actual examples of failures and successes. The faculty was excellent and the staff was thorough. This program reinforced for me that Stanford has one of the best business schools for executive education in the world.
