Tanya Menon is an award-winning organizational psychologist, professor at Ohio State University, and internationally recognized expert on workplace behavior, decision making, and collaboration. Her research helps organizations rethink how people work together, solve problems, and unlock collective intelligence.
Tanya serves as Professor of Management and Human Resources at the Fisher College of Business, where she studies how relationships shape decision making, leadership, and performance. Her work has been cited in NPR, the Wall Street Journal, and The Guardian. She is co-author of Stop Spending, Start Managing, published by Harvard Business Review Press, which examines how organizations waste resources and how smarter systems improve performance. Her TED talk on networking and organizational behavior has surpassed two million views and was recognized among the most popular TED talks of 2018. Tanya also serves as Associate Editor at Management Science, contributing to one of the field’s leading academic journals.
Tanya applies evidence-based strategies to solve problems that cost organizations millions, from failed hires to unproductive meetings. She has consulted for the US Intelligence Community, McKinsey Academy, DHL, Citibank, and the Environmental Protection Agency, among others. Her approach combines behavioral science with practical tools that address how teams actually function, not how they should theoretically operate. She identifies hidden organizational dynamics, exposes biases in hiring and collaboration, and redesigns communication patterns that allow diverse voices to surface and influence outcomes.
Her presentations equip leaders with practical tools to improve influence, foster innovation, and build stronger teams in rapidly evolving workplaces. By revealing how habits, relationships, and systems shape outcomes, she helps organizations make smarter decisions, unlock creativity, and use human judgment effectively alongside technology. Audiences gain frameworks for making faster decisions without sacrificing fairness and techniques for turning confusion into creative breakthroughs.
Book Tanya to equip your team with research-backed methods that make collaboration both more efficient and more human.
