Ethan Mollick
I research the factors that lead to success in entrepreneurship and innovation, and how to teach people to become more effective leaders and innovators. Most recently, I have focused on AI, and especially how it affects education and work. I co-founded Wharton Interactive, an effort to democratize education using games and simulations, while applying rigorous approaches to pedagogy at scale.
I have worked with a lot of different organizations (from startups to government agencies), co-founded a technology company, and have a mysterious past.
