became the tenth dean of Harvard Business School on 1 July 2010. He
previously was co-chair of the Leadership Initiative and has served as
Senior Associate Dean of Faculty Development and Head of the Organizational Behavior unit. His research centers on human motivation, leadership, and corporate transformation and sustainable performance. He and Amanda Pepper collaborated with XPlane in creating the Paths to Power video; their hope is to generate a discussion of the value and importance of leadership in addressing some of society's most pressing problems.

This is a companion book to In Their Time, which draws lessons from some of the greatest American business leaders of the 20th century.
