Maria Guadalupe is a Professor of Economics at INSEAD where she holds the Mark Pathy’89D Chair in Organizational Economics and Productivity and is a Co-Director of the James M. and Cathleen D. Stone Center for the Study of Wealth Inequality. She is currently Program Director of the CEPR Organizational Economics group, Department Editor in Strategy at Management Science and a member of the Spanish Productivity board and of the French Expert Group on minimum wages. As an Organizational Economist her research explores different dimensions of organizational choices by firms and its impact on performance. Her work has shown how globalisation and the competitive environment faced by firms shape their internal organisational formal practices such as pay levels, incentives, executive compensation, and hierarchical structures. She has also studied the effect of corporate governance arrangements on firm performance, and how multinationals select their foreign targets and the productivity consequences of the changes in firm boundaries. A strand of her work focuses on how norms and corporate culture (including gender norms and psychological safety) affect individual choices and organizational outcomes.
