Chris Lewis

Chris Lewis is a London-based business author and entrepreneur whose work explores creativity, leadership and social impact.

Biografía y Trayectoria del Autor

Chris Lewis is a British business author, journalist, and communications entrepreneur whose public profile has been built less on confessional autobiography than on a long record of media, advisory, and leadership work. He studied at Lancaster University in 1983 and 1984, later describing a career that grew out of creativity, media, and consulting rather than a single literary lane. In the 1990s he founded LEWIS, now TEAM LEWIS, and over time turned it into a large independent marketing and communications group. That business expansion became one of the central turning points in his writing life: the agency gave him a practical vantage point from which to think about creativity, institutions, and leadership at scale.
