Chris is also an accomplished instructor, having led courses on management and leadership skills. He has spoken at complexity conferences on Commitment-based Management and has guest lectured at the London School of Economics and London Business School. He is one of the original developers of Commitment-based Management, perhaps the most important innovation in management in the past twenty years. He has a BA in philosophy from Pomona College and an MA in the philosophy of language. He worked for 17 years with Dr. Fernando Flores, the originator of Commitment-based Management.
Commitment-based Management (CbM) is the most successful management discipline to emerge in the last four decades. CbM puts accountability and coordination at the center of producing results. It has been profiled in the Wall Street Journal and MIT Sloan Management Review among other periodicals and is currently taught in the London Business School. Now widely imitated, it was originally developed 20 years ago by Dr. Fernando Flores and a team that included some of Stratum's partners.
