Distinguished Research Professor

+1-404-428-4878


Joe's main research stream focuses on understanding interpersonal conflict from a social network perspective, including what leads to these conflicts, the consequences of these conflicts for individuals and groups, and how the people in the broader network become involved in the conflicts. Joe was a research fellow at Penn State's Center for Research on Conflict and Negotiation. Joe also does social network-based research on groups, organizational gossip, innovation, post-merger integration, and organizational design.

Joe's research has appeared in such outlets as Science, the Academy of Management Journal, the Academy of Management Review, Organization Science, the Journal of Applied Psychology, Social Networks, Advances in Strategic Management, and Research on the Sociology of Organizations, among others. He serves on the editorial boards of Organization Science, the Journal of Applied Psychology, Strategic Organization, and Organizational Psychology Review and has edited special issues of the Academy of Management Review, Organization Science, and Social Networks.

Joe joined the University of Exeter as a Distinguished Research Professor in 2019. He has also been on faculty at the University of Kentucky since 2006. Prior to that, Joe was on faculty at the Goizueta Business School at Emory University and the Freeman School of Business at Tulane University. He has taught undergraduate, MBA, Professional MBA, Executive MBA, and Ph.D.-level courses in conflict and negotiations, organization and management, organization theory and design, organizational behavior, human resources management, strategy, and organizational change management at Penn State, Tulane, Emory, the University of Massachusetts at Amherst, and the University of Kentucky. He served on Tempur Sealy's Organization Development Leadership Council from 2014-2016 and consults with numerous companies.
