The STR Leadership is saddened to learn of the sudden death of Professor Jonathan P. O’Brien. Jon was chair of the Department of Management, professor of management and U.S. Bank Distinguished Professor of Business at the University of Nebraska–Lincoln. Jon received his PhD in Strategic Management from Purdue University and his research focused on the governance of strategic assets, real options, capital structure, the institutional environment, and behavioral influences on firm strategy. Jon was an active member of the STR community and a leader in the greater management community. He will be greatly missed, and our thoughts are with his family.
