About
Alessandro Lomi is a leading organizational theorist and network scientist whose research bridges social network analysis, organizational behavior, and computational social science. He is best known for advancing our understanding of how social networks shape collective outcomes, particularly in high-stakes professional settings. His highly cited work on "The Partners of My Partners" (2024, 4 citations) explores how shared collaborative experience—the prior ties team members have with external partners—affects team performance in surgical teams. This research extends classic network theory by showing that performance depends not only on internal team dynamics but on the broader relational context in which teams are embedded. Lomi’s contributions have been foundational in developing statistical models for network dynamics, including exponential random graph models (ERGMs) and stochastic actor-oriented models. His work has garnered thousands of citations across sociology, management, and medicine. A professor at the University of Italian Switzerland, Lomi has also served as editor of major journals and received multiple awards for his methodological innovations. His research continues to shape how scholars and practitioners understand collaboration, learning, and performance in complex organizations.
