Laura Huang
I’m a professor at Harvard Business School. I have spent my academic career studying interpersonal relationships and implicit bias in entrepreneurship and in the workplace. My research has been featured in the Financial Times, The Wall Street Journal, USA Today, Forbes, and Nature, and I was named one of the 40 Best Business School Professors Under the Age of 40 by Poets & Quants.
