People & Organisations
Ph.D. in Economics (specialization in Management)

Sirio is an Associate Professor in the People & Organisations Department at NEOMA Business School. He holds a Ph.D. and a Master of Science from the University of Lausanne, Switzerland, as well as an undergraduate degree from Università Commerciale Luigi Bocconi, Italy. Sirio is interested in how leaders’ behaviors and followers’ perceptions are shaped by cultural, historical, and developmental processes. He tackles this broad empirical topic by combining traditional organizational and psychological literature with insights from other disciplines, such as evolution-informed social sciences, cross-cultural psychology, and political and behavioral economics. Sirio is also interested in research methods, with a specific focus on causal analysis, experimental methods, and structural equation modeling. His work has been published in leading journals, including Journal of Management, Journal of Operations Management, The Leadership Quarterly, and Psychological Methods, and has been presented at various conferences. Sirio is a member of the editorial boards of Organizational Research Methods and The Leadership Quarterly. He previously served as Associate Editor and Methods Advisor for The Leadership Quarterly.
