He is Stanford Graduate School of Business Lane Professor of Organizational Behavior and Change, Emeritus, and directed the School’s Executive Program on Leading and Managing Change for sixteen years.

He is the bestselling author of the books Actualizations: You Don’t Have to Rehearse to Be Yourself and The Owner’s Manual For Your Life.
