+ BIO

Samira Reis is Associate Professor at the Department of Business Administration at Carlos III University and deputy director at the MBA program. She holds a PhD in Management from Bocconi University in Italy, a MSc and a BSc in Industrial Engineering from UFRJ. During her PhD she was a visiting scholar at UCLA. She has also visited the London Business School and the University of Toronto’s Rotman School of Management. Her research interests include organization theory, organizational ecology, identity, status and stigma. Professor Reis typically uses large-scale, “big data” approaches and text analysis to study these topics. Although she is interested in several settings, she has most extensively studied television and film industries in U.S., Italy and Brazil. Her research appears in journals such as Administrative Science Quarterly, Organization Science and Strategic Management Journal.

At Carlos III, she teaches Strategy to undergraduates, Research in Strategy, Entrepreneurship and Innovation at the PhD program, and International Management to Master in Management and MBA students. At Bocconi, she taught “Business Planning and Entrepreneurship” to Master of Science students.
