Noah Benjamin-Pollak
Ph.D. Student in Management Science and Engineering, admitted Autumn 2022
BioNoah Benjamin-Pollak (noahabp@stanford.edu) is a PhD candidate in Management Science & Engineering at Stanford University. He is a member of the Center for Work, Technology, and Organization (WTO). His research focuses on how different professions interact, particularly how authority and expertise are utilized in cross-occupational contexts. His current research uses ethnographic methods to understand cross-occupational collaboration between engineers and traditional business employees. Additionally, he is focused on understanding how expertise and expert authority are built and communicated between experts and non-expert audiences.
