About Marissa King
Marissa King teaches at the Yale School of Management, where she created a popular course on managing strategic networks. She has spent about fifteen years studying how people's social networks develop, what shapes they take, and why that matters. Her more recent research looks at the behaviors of individuals and groups that large-scale organizational change depends on. She has also used wearable sensors to add to traditional social science data. King's work on networks has been applied to the opioid crisis and the loneliness epidemic. Her book Social Chemistry is in our catalog.
