APB’s Stewart Friedman Earns Thinkers50 Distinguished Achievement Award

17 Nov 2015

Known as the world’s “most prestigious ranking of management thinkers,” Thinkers50 shines the spotlight on business leaders whose ideas are radically influencing everything from innovation and strategy to organizational culture and change. This year, in addition to the ranking, Thinkers50 presented 11 Distinguished Achievement Awards—dubbed the “Oscars of Management Thinking”—and we are proud to congratulate APB speaker Stewart Friedman for taking home the 2015 Talent Award.

Stewart Friedman is the Practice Professor of Management at the Wharton School at the University of Pennsylvania, and is founding director of Wharton’s Leadership Program and Work/Life Integration Project. The author of Total Leadership and Leading the Life You Want, Friedman’s presentations help people define and implement necessary principles to become better leaders and live more fulfilling lives. His idea of total leadership is unique because, unlike most approaches to leadership development, it is about performance in all parts of life and creating mutual value among them.

Other notable speakers on the Thinkers50 list include Marshall Goldsmith, Richard Florida, Liz Wiseman, Anil Gupta, John Kotter, Gary Hamel and David Ulrich.

Tomorrow's direction is the basis of all of today's decisions. APB's business speakers offer thought-provoking presentations and proven strategies that help guide businesses and individuals toward success.
