Moira Daly

My research sits at the intersection of labor economics, entrepreneurship, and leadership, examining how individuals and organizations navigate career choices and digital transformation. I study how educational choices, skills, family background, and gender shape careers and pathways into entrepreneurship and leadership roles, while also investigating how leaders influence organizational decisions around technology adoption, innovation, and rent-sharing. 

A particular focus of my work is understanding skill utilization and development in an increasingly digital labor market.  My ambition is to contribute to a better understanding of how institutional, technological, and personal factors shape economic outcomes and career trajectories in modern labor markets.
