Fred Kofman is an economist, executive coach, and leadership advisor focused on conscious business, organizational culture, and values-based management. He is best known for Conscious Business and The Meaning Revolution, and for senior leadership-development work with companies including LinkedIn and Google, influencing executives worldwide.

Биография и Путь Автора

Fred Kofman grew up in Argentina before building an academic career in the United States. He earned a PhD in economics from the University of California, Berkeley, specializing in advanced theory and industrial organization, and from 1990 to 1996 taught at MIT Sloan while also serving as a senior researcher in the Organizational Learning Center under Peter Senge. That combination of economics, systems thinking, and organizational learning became the foundation of his later work: leadership, in his account, had to be both analytically rigorous and deeply human.
