Christian Stadler

Professor of Strategic Management at Warwick Business School

Christian is a professor of strategic management at Warwick Business School. In articles and interviews for the Harvard Business Review, Sloan Management Review, New York Times, Wall Street Journal, Financial Times, CNN, the BBC and other news outlets, he addresses fundamental strategic questions that enable companies to grow, adapt, and consistently beat their competitors. In his new book “Open Strategy. Mastering Disruption from Outside the C-Suite” Christian helps companies to craft strategy in a new unconventional way, one tailor-made for today’s faster, more volatile business environment. His last book “Enduring Success: What We Can Learn from the History of Outstanding Corporations” was the first one with a non-U.S. perspective on long-range success. Thinkers50 – the premier ranking of the most influential living management thinkers – lists him as a future thinker.
