I'm a people scientist. I study traits of high potential talent—and why the path to the top may undermine your ability to lead once you're there.
I earned my Ph.D. from Harvard Business School, where I conducted large-scale experiments. As the inaugural Ph.D. Research Fellow at ghSMART, I analyzed the world's largest database of executive assessments to identify predictive frameworks for C-suite advancement.
