Research Gate: 

Shira is a social psychologist, specializing in organizational development and leadership development in hyper-growing start-up companies. She graduated with a B.A and an M.A. from the Hebrew University of Jerusalem. Her doctoral thesis focuses on trust and trustworthiness in negotiations and on investigating the gap between actual versus predicted trust (worthiness) among negotiating dyads. Furthermore, she aims to test the role of this “Trustworthiness Gap Theory” in explaining (at least part of) the lack of trust and inefficiency in negotiations, as well as to prescribe conditions for more efficient agreements.
