comparative systems of capitalism, with a particular focus on corporate

subject and a book entitled Contests for Corporate Control: Corporate
Governance and Economic Performance in the United States and Germany

Economic Change, which analyses the evolving relationship between
financial markets and enterprise and industrial dynamics.

O’Sullivan completed her undergraduate education at University
College Dublin (B. Comm.) and then worked at McKinsey in London for a
couple of years. She went from there to do an MBA at Harvard Business
School and then a PhD in Business Economics at Harvard University. Prior
to moving to Wharton in the summer of 2005, she was employed as an
Associate Professor in the Department of Strategy at INSEAD where she
had worked since January 1997. O’Sullivan developed and taught the
