Ozias A. Moore is an assistant professor of management in the College of Business at Lehigh University. In addition, he served as a visiting assistant professor at the Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania in the management department during the 2019-2020 academic year. He received his B.S. in business administration from the University of Pittsburgh, an M.S. in engineering from the University of Pennsylvania, and an M.S. and Ph.D. in human resource studies from the ILR School at Cornell University. 

Ozias’ research interest spans individual and team levels of analysis. His work in these areas is connected by three common themes: (a) focusing on how dynamic team composition, in particular multiple team membership (MTM), shapes individual and team interactions within and across team boundaries; (b) focusing on the enabling mechanisms supporting multi-team effectiveness; and (c) exploring the role of context (whether it be one’s organization, team, or more immediate social context) and an individual’s social and functional differences on bias evaluation, judgments, and learning transfer. His primary research interests focus on team and multi-team effectiveness. He is particularly interested in exploring the multi-level effects of dynamic team composition on team processes, emergent states, and team outcomes. His secondary area of research, which shifts from the team to the individual level explores individual unique composition characteristics within the context of their organization and social system. He explores understanding the effects of individual differences on evaluation bias, decision-making, and performance for employees and leaders. 

Ozias’ research has been published in leading management journals, including the Academy of Management Review, Journal of Applied Psychology, Computers in Human Behavior: Artificial Humans, Equality, Diversity, and Inclusion: An International Journal, Group & Organization Management, Journal of Occupational and Organizational Psychology, Personnel Psychology, and Small Group Research. He has contributed to The SAGE Handbook of Industrial, Work and Organizational Psychology, and his research findings have been featured in popular media outlets. Ozias serves on the editorial review boards of the Journal of Organizational Behavior and the Journal of Management Studies. He teaches undergraduate and graduate courses in organizational behavior, leadership, talent management, and work groups and teams.

Ozias has received several honors and awards for his research and teaching. He has been awarded grants from the United States Air Force, Cornell’s Center for Advanced Human Resource Studies (CAHRS), the Bert Trucksess Foundation, the Wharton School’s Center for Leadership and Change Management, and the Lee Hakel Scholarship by the Society for Industrial and Organizational Psychology. Ozias has received national and university-wide recognition for excellence in teaching and was named among the Top 50 Undergraduate Business Professors by Poets & Quants and was also a recipient of the Lehigh University College of Business Teaching Excellence Award.

Before completing his Ph.D., Ozias’ work experience was inclusive of key management and executive-level positions at Westinghouse Electric Corporation, IBM Corporation, American Express, and Pfizer, Inc. He is also a PMI (Project Management Institute) certified PMP® (Project Management Professional).
