Sharonda Bishop recently earned her DBA from the Kellstadt Graduate School of Business at DePaul University. Her research focus includes human resources and leadership, specifically leader-follower traits that generate performance advantages, and the intersectionality of diversity and gender in management. In her doctoral dissertation, she explored upper echelon theory and the degree to which CEO narcissism impacts workplace diversity, using moderators of CEO age, race, and gender. She is a lecturer in the College of Business Administration at Cal Poly Pomona and the Global Campus at San Diego State University. She is well-regarded by students and faculty colleagues for her expertise in teaching organizational behavior, talent acquisition, and diversity to undergraduate and non-traditional students.
