Bio/Research

Professor William Schmidt’s research examines how supply chain decisions influence and are influenced by information asymmetry between the firm and its constituents, including investors. He investigates the relationships between firm operational decisions and firm value and risk to advance our understanding of the factors that moderate these relationships and identify strategies that firms may adopt to better manage them. Much of his work is in the context of low probability, high impact operational disruptions. His research work includes projects with industry partners, such as Ford Motor Company, Emerson Electric Company, a large diversified manufacturer, and a large book retailer.
