Maxim Sytch is an organizational scholar and Professor of Management and Organizations at the Ross School of Business at the University of Michigan.[1] He is known for his work on the dynamics of knowledge and influence in interorganizational networks and in legal systems. His work has shown that small-world networks can be inherently unstable structures, how the dynamics of networks communities can sustain invention, and how organizations can influence their legal environments and judicial arbiters.

Sytch is an Associate Editor of Administrative Science Quarterly.[2]

Biography

[edit]

Research

[edit]

Sytch has conducted research on the origins and evolutionary dynamics of the dual social structure of markets that encompasses both collaborative and conflictual interorganizational relationships.[7] His research also focuses on the roles of varying global network topologies in shaping performance consequences for entire communities of firms, and the way companies influence their legal environments by leveraging social relationships between lawyers and judicial arbiters.[8] and how networked systems withstand shocks and recover from them.[9]
