Richard Makadok works in the field of strategic management, using theoretical and formal modeling approaches to study how firms gain and lose competitive advantages. His work covers topics such as first-mover advantages, the effects of losing key employees or 'star' performers, resource-based theories of the firm, and how competitive advantages spread to affect rival companies. He also writes about research methods, including guidance on building and presenting formal theory in management scholarship.
Publication output has remained fairly steady but modest over the last decade, averaging about 1-3 papers per year with no strong upward or downward trend.
