I am the author of Tilt: Shifting your strategy from products to customers.
My comment pieces and press articles have appeared in the Financial Times, the International Herald Tribune, the Globe & Mail, Business Standard, and Business Today.
I have worked for many years each in Europe, North America, and Asia, and have been lucky to live in some fabulous places.
Before moving to Canada, I was on the faculty at INSEAD from 1991-1998, first as Assistant Professor, then as Associate Professor.

I have written a number of case studies on brand and competitive strategy in global markets. These cases are taught at business schools around the world, and several have received awards from the European Foundation for Management Development.
I have also worked closely with the senior management teams of companies including Algorithmics, Asahi Glass, BMW (AG), Cadbury-Schweppes (Global), Debeers (South Africa), HSBC (Asia), Microsoft (C.E.E.), Sud Chemie (Mexico), S. C. Johnson (Europe), KPMG (Asia), J. Walter Thompson (International), the McCain group (Worldwide), Telus (Canada).
