Paige Tsai
I am a PhD candidate in the Technology and Operations Management Unit at Harvard Business School, where I am advised by Ryan Buell.
I am interested in the effects of job design on employees —both on and off the clock. My research examines how different features of work, including compensation, scheduling practices, workplace technologies, and opportunities for recognition, shape employee well-being, engagement, productivity, and retention. By studying frontline workers across a range of settings, I seek to understand how organizations can design jobs that improve both employee outcomes and organizational performance.
Prior to pursuing my doctoral degree, I completed an M.B.A. at Harvard Business School, an A.B. in Psychology from Princeton University, and worked at Dropbox, Uber, and IDEO in San Francisco.
