This episode, I speak with Ron Burt, the Charles M. Harper Leadership Professor of Sociology and Strategy at the University of Chicago and Distinguished Professor at Bocconi University in Milan.

In our conversation, we talk about a recent AMJ paper, with co-author, Song Wang, about 'bridge supervision' in organizations, which occurs when a manager and their boss do not share any strong similar social connections. The current rise of remote employment, is likely to bring a rise in bridge supervision as well. The paper explores how this trend may impact managerial behavior and performance.

We also discuss Ron’s concerns about the long-term consequences of remote work and about how his sabbatical as an executive at Raytheon informed his recent research including the best way to fail in an organization.

Burt, R. S. & Wang, S. 2022. Bridge Supervision: Correlates of a Boss on the Far Side of a Structural Hole. Academy of Management Journal, 65(6): 1835-1863.
