My goal is to help organizations--commercial and humanitarian--respond to the challenges brought by conflicts and urban disasters. I study how armed conflicts affect operational performance (e.g., productivity, efficiency); how people (e.g., aid workers, physicians, managers) respond to challenges such as unsafe work conditions, scarce resources, workplace interruptions, and higher workloads; and how workers' responses (e.g., multitasking, collaboration, peer learning) affect operational performance. I peruse how by using inventory, cash, and information sharing, organizations respond to war-related disruptions and Mass Casualty Incidents.
