Biografia e Percorso dell'Autore
Greg McKeown’s work grows out of an unusually visible act of self-revision. Originally from London, he began on a law-school path, then stepped away after concluding that it did not align with the life he wanted to build. He enrolled at Brigham Young University to study communications and print journalism, a change that put writing and teaching at the center of his ambitions. He later earned an MBA from Stanford Graduate School of Business, and he is now also listed by Cambridge Judge Business School as a business doctorate candidate. That progression, from inherited expectations toward chosen priorities, supplied the personal architecture for the ideas that would define his career.
