Cynthia A. Montgomery is the Timken Professor of Business Administration and immediate past head of the Strategy Unit at Harvard Business School, where she’s taught for over twenty years. For six years she led the strategy track in the School’s highly regarded Owner, President, Manager Program (OPM), attended by top managers of mid-sized companies from around the globe. Currently, she is a core faculty member in the School’s Advanced Management Program. In this episode, we discuss Cynthia’s new book The Strategist: Be The Leader Your Business Needs. Cynthia boldly redefines strategy and issues a call to arms for leaders to take back their rightful claim to be Strategists of their own organizations.
