Description

Jana Gallus is an assistant professor in the strategy group at UCLA Anderson. Professor Gallus’s research interests lie in behavioral economics and strategy, with a focus on non-financial incentives and their effects on decision-making. Jana investigates how incentive schemes can be designed to enhance employee motivation and organizational performance in the private and nonprofit sectors. Jana joined UCLA from Harvard, where she was a postdoctoral fellow. She received her Ph.D. in economics from the University of Zurich, with the distinction summa cum laude, and holds two master’s degrees, from Sciences Po Paris in France and the University of St. Gallen in Switzerland. Jana describes herself as an economist with a keen interest in studying and designing incentives to motivate human behaviour. Her research and teaching lie at the intersection of strategy, economics and psychology.
