Dr. Ron Adner  is the Leverone Memorial Professor of Business Administration at Dartmouth's Tuck School of Business. Prior to Tuck, he was the Akzo-Nobel Fellow of Strategic Management at INSEAD, where he served on the faculty for ten years.  His award-winning research introduces a new perspective on value creation and competition when industry boundaries break down in the wake of ecosystem disruption.

 

Dr. Adner's two books, The Wide Lens and Winning the Right Game, are considered to be landmark contributions to strategy literature. Professor Clayton Christensen, noted creator of Disruptive Innovation Theory, said that Ron's work on disruption was “path-breaking”, and Jim Collins (author of Good to Great) has called him one of our most important strategic thinkers for the 21st century.
