Revolutionizing How We Think About Leadership and Strategy 

As a professor at the McGill University Desautels Faculty of Management and for +25 years a Fellow and an Associate Fellow at Green Templeton College, Oxford University, Dr. Karl Moore spends a lot of time interacting with the current and future leaders of our world...CEOs and millennials/Zs.  

Starting with his Ph.D. Karl has studied CEOs and how they lead and develop strategies.  At McGill, he teaches an MBA course, CEO Insights, where 31 CEOs come to join the class for an hour each Fall.  For the last decade, this class has been turned into an hour-long radio show on Bell Media's CJAD, and this year on Bell Media stations across Canada. The show is called the CEO Series, it is an hour-long one-on-one with a leading CEO.  Each interview is turned into an article for Forbes.com.   He has also worked closely with Henry Mintzberg for 20 years on the Advanced Leadership Program, the IMPM and the IMHL.  Prior to academia, Karl spent 11 years with IBM and Hitachi in marketing and management positions.  Prior to McGill, he was a full-time faculty at Oxford University for 5 years at the Said Business School and Green Templeton College. He has produced a very substantial volume of impactful research: +4200 citations; 28 refereed journal articles, 10 books, 12 book chapters, 25 executive journal articles, & hundreds of newspaper pieces. He has been an Associate Editor of the Academy of Management Perspectives. His Forbes.com blog, the weekly video interview for the Globe & Mail and his YouTube channel have received over 5 million views.

His newest book, his tenth, will be released in 2023 is Generation Why: How Boomers and GenX Can Lead and Learn From Millenials and Gen Zs, which studies the way that millennials/Zs act as leaders and the way that managers need to act to create meaningful interactions with millennials/Zs.  The book after that is We Are All Ambiverts Now based on +750 interviews with C-Suite executives.  He recently gave a talk on the book at the Harvard Business School and teaches the material on the Stanford MBA every spring.  Karl has taught on executive and MBA programs at Harvard, Standford, Cambridge, Oxford, INSEAD and McGill University*.  Karl is also delighted to share that he was nominated for a Thinkers50 Distinguished Achievement Awards in the Leadership Category as a top thinker in the area for his work on introverts/extroverts in the C-Suite & Millennials. Seven others were nominated including faculty from Harvard, MIT, Columbia, Penn and Dartmouth.
