Shavin Malhotra is an Associate Professor at the University of Waterloo, with cross-appointments in faculty roles. His research focuses on executive leadership, corporate finance, international business strategies, and organizational behavior. Key themes include CEO personality traits, cross-border acquisitions, SME export dynamics, and the influence of cognitive complexity in decision-making.
Malhotra's work examines how leadership characteristics (e.g., extraversion, cognitive complexity) affect firm outcomes like equity costs, audit risks, and acquisition premiums. He also explores institutional and geographic factors in foreign investments, peer effects on SME performance, and the paradoxes of star employees in organizations.
His recent articles (2022-2024) analyze topics such as CEO-CFO compatibility, export market survival, and the diagnostic role of references in M&A decisions. While no awards or grants are explicitly stated in the text, his prolific publication record highlights sustained academic engagement in strategic management and global business challenges.
