TYLER OKIMOTO is a Professor in Management and Head of School (acting) for the UQ Business School. He received his Ph.D. in Organisational Psychology from New York University in 2005, and worked as a postdoctoral researcher in the School of Psychology at Flinders University in Australia, and in the School of Management at Yale University.
Tyler's research aims to better facilitate collaboration and consensus between diverse points of view, and to understand the role of leadership in overcoming those challenges. He often examines consensus/collaboration as a conduit for social justice in organisations and society, both how a lack of consensus contributes to injustice and inequality, and how people can effectively collaborate to move past conflict and repair harmonious relationships. He currently serves as President of the International Society for Justice Research, committed to fostering impactful interdisciplinary research that advances social justice.
He is also an award-winning educator, teaching both traditional and online/blended courses on leadership, human resources, conflict/negotiation, and decision-making in the Undergraduate, MBA, and Executive levels. He was also the Program Director and Academic Lead Designer of UQ’s MicroMasters Program in Business Leadership, a series of five postgraduate-level MOOCs (Massive Open Online Courses); in its first year, this program reached over 60,000 learners from 193 different countries, and was a 2019 finalist for the global edX Prize for Exceptional Contributions to Online Education.
Tyler's published work has been featured in numerous media outlets, including the New York Times, the Washington Post, the UK Guardian, the Daily Mail, the Atlantic, Smithsonian Magazine, Good Morning America, Netflix Explained, PBS News, ABC Radio, US National Public Radio, and the Hidden Brain podcast. His work has also been featured in a number of policy reports, inculding the American Association of University Women 2010 report, ‘Why so few? Women in STEM’; Harvard University's 'Gender Action Portal', aimed at closing gender gaps in business, politics, health, and education; and the National Academies Press 2014 policy report promoting equal opportunity in the U.S. military.
