Inside the World of Networks with Dr. Beppe Soda

In this episode, we had the immense pleasure of speaking with Dr. Beppe Soda about his wide-ranging body of scholarship. We discussed his new book, Formal and Informal Networks in Organizations, as well as one of his recent papers, titled “In the Network of the Conclave: Social Connections and the Making of a Pope”, co-authored with Dr. Alessandro Iorio and Dr. Leonardo Rizzo. Dr. Soda shared many fascinating stories and spoke candidly about his journey writing a book and building such an impressive scholarly career.
