Inspiring the Next Generation of Leaders
Our esteemed faculty members are teachers, authors, researchers, consultants and experienced practitioners. They are experts in innovation, collaboration, entrepreneurship, organizational change and core business disciplines.
Faculty Expertise Across Disciplines
Like the students they teach, Kellogg faculty members represent an incredible set of diverse intellectual interests, international backgrounds and life experiences. They are at the forefront of their disciplines, grounded in the realities of business and management. They are also highly sought after as advisers to corporations and governments on some of the world’s toughest business and social issues.
Most important, our faculty members are passionate teachers and wise mentors who make themselves accessible to students well beyond graduation. And like the unique culture they help shape, our faculty collaborate across departments to create insights that leaders need to grow their organizations.
Kellogg faculty members bring theory to life so you can apply it in yours.
Meet Our Faculty
Gregory Carpenter
JAMES FARLEY/BOOZ ALLEN HAMILTON PROFESSOR OF MARKETING STRATEGY; FACULTY DIRECTOR, KELLOGG MARKETS AND CUSTOMERS INITIATIVE
“The customer perspective has simply become too important to be relegated to one function [like marketing]. Indeed, it is increasingly central to the leadership of the firm, strategy and customer engagement. This change will reshape how organizations are led, allowing them to be more agile and innovative.”
Sunil Chopra
IBM PROFESSOR OF OPERATIONS MANAGEMENT AND INFORMATION SYSTEMS
“The most successful supply chains are those which really align the structure of the supply chain with what the customer wants. Any time you can achieve that alignment, you are providing the customer what they want — often at the lowest possible cost to yourself.”
Sergio Rebelo
TOKAI BANK DISTINGUISHED PROFESSOR OF INTERNATIONAL FINANCE
“I hear people say we need to educate the consumer. Education is for universities. You have to understand the consumer.”
Janice Eberly
“We shouldn’t underestimate how important a role business leaders play in economic issues. Many transcend their primary interests to have a conversation about public policy issues. And when they do that, they can help shape a conversation about the public good.”
Brenda Ellington Booth
“Try to look at [a self-evaluation] almost like a scientist or view it as you would any data set. Do you consistently overrate your performance? Do you consistently underrate your performance? Or are you dead-on? That is really important to know.”
Ben Jones
“Whether you’re starting a new venture or scaling an existing one, you’ve got to understand every stage of business development: generating a new idea, market testing and refining your idea, building a winning team and then designing organizations, operations and strategies that successfully scale. Our program gives you the tools to manage all of that.”
Angela Lee
“A brand is intangible — in a way, the brand goes beyond the product itself. So from a psychological perspective, it’s interesting to consider the dynamic relationship between consumers and the brands they consume.”
Brian Uzzi
“When many different disciplines study the same phenomena from different points of view but converge on the same set of facts, it suggests that science has touched on a new truth.”
Florian Zettelmeyer
“Empower yourself with a working knowledge of data science. You can get all the data you need and more. It will be up to you, the manager, to generate the insights that will deliver the real results.”
