About Yongha
Yongha (Yon) Kwon is a doctoral candidate specializing in Strategy (major) and Entrepreneurship (minor). He holds a B.A. and an M.S. in Business Administration from the Yonsei School of Business. Yon's research delves into the role of organizational design as a managerial tool to enhance organizational learning.
His work focuses on how social dynamics among individuals (e.g., homophily, knowledge-sharing versus seeking) influence the effectiveness of organizational designs in creating, recombining, and disseminating valuable knowledge within firms. By employing agent-based models, Yon articulates how these behaviors modify knowledge transfer patterns, ultimately shaping the processes and outcomes of organizational learning.
