About
Leslie Shaw holds an MBA and PhD in Psychology from the University of Chicago. After her PhD she pursued post doc training at the Chicago Institute for Psychoanalysis and graduated from the five year program for Research and Special Training Candidates. Leslie has a decade of traditional management consulting and executive search experience prior to returning to the University of Chicago for PhD studies.
Her doctoral expertise is on understanding and limiting overconfidence in judgment. She is dedicated, now, to an integrated approach of Dynamic Psychology along with Behavioral Economics thinking. The goal is for leadership and management experience to become more constructive with insight than destructive from fear.
