</font></div><div><font size="4" face="Times New Roman">Innovation has the power to solve the most pressing business and social problems of our time, from generating novel business models to reforming our overpriced, under-serving health care and education systems. Whether a business leader or a public policymaker, understanding the dynamics of how organizations harness disruption – be it technological, economic, or social – for their own advantage will be key to weathering and mastering future storms.<b> Ann Christensen is a leading advocate of and practitioner in the movement calling for Disruptive Innovation – already an accepted and much-endured concept in the business world – to be applied in similarly transforming the social sector</b>. As a facilitator of dialogue on this crucial issue, Ann energizes audiences with a firm sense of calling and purpose in using these proven business theories to help companies and people the world over develop new strategies for growth and sustainability.</font></div><div><font size="4" face="Times New Roman">
</font></div><div><font size="4" face="Times New Roman">In addition to applying the theory of Disruptive Innovation in the private sector, Ann’s application of the Jobs to be Done theory led her to explore ways in which these methods could be applied to solving public policy dilemmas. In applying this framework for achieving customers’ desired outcomes rather than merely improving existing products and services, her speaking presentations unpack these important issues to reveal how leaders can begin to take the steps toward disrupting the competition while making a lasting positive impact on humanity. As president of the Clayton Christensen Institute for Disruptive Innovation – a nonprofit, nonpartisan think tank focused on shaping the conversation and solving institutional problems in business, education, health care and economic prosperity – Ann directs the overall strategic and operational development of the organization and oversees its rapidly growing research programs. She also works closely with the Board of Directors to enhance the Institute’s impact and strengthen its strategic partnerships and resources. Under Ann’s leadership, the Institute has established a visiting fellows program, expanded its education work to include higher education, and added a global prosperity division.</font></div><div><font size="4" face="Times New Roman">
</font></div><div><font size="4" face="Times New Roman" style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 102);">Prior to joining the Institute, Ann worked at Huntsman Gay Global Capital, a private equity firm focused on middle-market companies, assessing potential investment targets across a variety of industries, and providing strategic and operational advice to portfolio companies. She also worked at Deloitte Consulting, where she was instrumental in establishing the Growth & Innovation practice by drawing on the theories of disruptive innovation to help clients create new growth businesses. Ann led projects for clients in variety of industries, including pharmaceutical, biotech, telecommunications, travel, professional services and insurance. She has also spent time as a strategic analyst for Elan Pharmaceuticals, an Irish biotechnology company.</font></div><div><font size="4" face="Times New Roman">
</font></div><div><font size="4" face="Times New Roman"><b>Ann holds a master’s degree in business administration from the Harvard Business School.</b> She earned a bachelor’s degree at Duke University, where she designed her own course of study to examine the political economies of developing nations. Following her time at Duke, Ann lived in Mongolia, where she served a full-time mission for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Her work in Mongolia included teaching at high schools and universities, helping grow the local church, facilitating job training, building homes, providing health care, and working with orphans.</font></div><div><font size="4" face="Times New Roman">

Christensen was born on April 6, 1952, in Salt Lake City, Utah, the second of eight children born to Robert M. Christensen (1926–1976) and his wife Verda Mae Christensen (née Fuller; 1922–2004).[3] He grew up in the Rose Park neighborhood of Salt Lake City and attended the nearby West High School, where he was student body president.[3] Christensen and his siblings were raised as members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS Church).</div><div>
</div><div>After graduating from high school in 1970, Christensen matriculated at Brigham Young University (BYU). While at BYU, he took a two-year leave of absence from 1971 to 1973 to serve as a volunteer full-time missionaryfor the LDS Church. He was assigned to serve in South Korea and became a fluent speaker of Korean. After completing his missionary service, Christensen returned to BYU, graduating in 1975 with an Honors B.A.summa cum laude in economics. Upon graduating, he received a Rhodes Scholarship and spent two years studying applied econometrics at Oxford University, receiving an M.Phil. in 1977. Christensen then returned to the United States and moved to Harvard University to pursue an MBA at the Harvard Business School, which he earned with high distinction in 1979.</div><div>
</div><div>Career</div><div>After receiving his MBA in 1979, Christensen began working for the <b>Boston Consulting Group (BCG) </b>as a consultant and project manager.[3] He took a leave of absence from 1982 to 1983 to work in Washington, D.C. as an assistant to the U.S. Secretary of Transportation, serving under Drew Lewis and then Elizabeth Dole. In 1984, he and several professors from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology founded an advanced ceramicscompany called Ceramics Process Systems Corporation (now known as CPS Technologies). Christensen served as its president and CEO through the late 1980s, then decided to leave the company and become a university professor. He returned to Harvard for doctoral study in business, receiving a Doctor of Business Administration degree in 1992. After completing his doctorate, Christensen joined the Harvard Business School faculty and set a record by achieving the rank of "full" professor in only six years.[3]</div><div>
</div><div>In 2000, he founded Innosight LLC, a consulting and training firm. In 2005, together with his colleagues at Innosight, he launched Innosight Ventures, a venture firm focused on investing in South Asia, Southeast Asia, and East Asia. In 2007, he co-founded Rose Park Advisors LLC (named after the neighborhood in Salt Lake City where he was raised), an investment company which applies his research as an investment strategy.</div><div>
</div><div>He serves on the board of directors of Tata Consultancy Services (NSE: TCS), Franklin Covey (NYSE: FC), and the Becket Fund for Religious Liberty.</div><div>
</div><div>At HBS, he teaches an elective course he designed called "Building and Sustaining a Successful Enterprise", which teaches how to build and manage an enduring, successful company or transform an existing organization, and also in many of the school's executive education programs. Christensen was awarded a full professorship with tenure in 1998, and currently holds eight honorary doctorates and an honorary chaired professorship at the National Tsinghua University in Taiwan. [4]</div><div>
</div><div>Christensen is the best-selling author of ten books, including his seminal work The Innovator's Dilemma (1997), which received the Global Business Book Award for the best business book of the year. One of the main concepts depicted in this book is also his most disseminated and famous one: disruptive innovation. The concept has been growing in interest over time since 2004, according to Google Trends' data. However, due to constant misinterpretation, Christensen still often writes articles trying to explain the concept even further. Some of his other books are focused on specific industries and discuss social issues such as education and health care. Disrupting Class (2008) looks at the root causes of why schools struggle and offers solutions, while The Innovator's Prescription (2009) examines how to fix the American healthcare system. The latter two books have received numerous awards as the best books on education and health care in their respective years of publication. The Innovator's Prescription was also awarded the 2010 James A. Hamilton Award, by the College of Healthcare Executives.[4]</div><div>

</div><div>
</div><div>Personal life</div><div>Christensen lives in Belmont, Massachusetts with his wife, Christine. They have five children, including Matthew Christensen, who played college basketball at Duke University and was a member of the 2001 National Championship team.[5] Christensen himself is an avid basketball player who stands 6 ft 8 in (2.03 m) tall, and was the starting center on the men's basketball team during his time at Oxford.[6]</div><div>
</div><div>Christensen is a member of the LDS Church.[7] From 1971 to 1973 he served as a missionary for the church in Korea and speaks fluent Korean.[8] He has served in several leadership positions in the LDS Church. He served as an area seventy from 2002 to 2009. He has also served as a counselor in the presidency of the Massachusetts Boston Mission and as a bishop.[9]</div><div>
</div><div>In February 2010, Christensen announced that he had been diagnosed with follicular lymphoma.[10] In July 2010, he had an ischemic stroke.[11][12] Despite Christensen’s health setbacks, he is once again actively teaching, speaking and writing. In 2011, Christensen published two books: The Innovative University[13] and The Innovator’s DNA (Harvard Business Press).</div><div>
</div><div>Honors and awards</div><div>In 2011, Forbes called him "one of the most influential business theorists of the last 50 years" in a cover story[14]</div><div>In both 2011 and 2013 he was ranked #1 in the Thinkers 50, biannually awarded and is considered the world's most prestigious ranking of management thinkers.[15]</div><div>In 2017 he was ranked #3 in the Thinkers 50.[16]</div><div><b>2014 Herbert Simon Award[</b>17]</div><div>2015 Edison Achievement Award[18]</div><div>2015 Brigham Young University Distinguished Service Award[19]</div><div>Bibliography</div><div>Journal articles authored or coauthored by Christensen</div><div>Christensen, Clayton M.; Bower, Joseph L.
