His work draws on experimental and "real world" data such as employee stock options, 401k savings, the NFL draft, and graduate school admissions. His research has led to collaborations with Google, Merck and multiple professional sports franchises. Cade's research has been published in leading psychology and management journals, and covered by the New York Times, Wall Street Journal, and The Economist. He has taught MBA and Executive MBA courses for 15 years.
