In this episode of the ScienceForWork Podcast, Matt talks with Gordon Schmidt, a management professor and director of the David and Sharon Turrentine School of Management. Gordon and Matt highlight the need for greater awareness of IO psychology to attract more students and integrate evidence-based research into management. They discuss Gordon’s books, including "Leaders Assemble: Leadership Lessons from the Marvel Cinematic Universe," and his upcoming book on leadership and popular culture, making complex IO psychology concepts accessible and relevant through engaging narratives.

The episode also explores the challenges and opportunities of remote work, the cautious use of generative AI in the workplace, and the role of technology in shaping the future of work.

Tune in to gain valuable insights into effective leadership, teamwork, and the intentional use of technology from a multidisciplinary perspective.

A special thanks to Dr. Gordon Schmidt.
