is an author, conference speaker, senior advisor and currently holds the post of Professor at ESCP Business School.

Dr. Isaac Getz was introduced to me by Rich Teerlink, formerly Chairman and CEO of Harley Davidson.  From our initial meeting 15 years ago and through an ongoing relationship over that time, I have watched Dr. Getz to be a keen observer of the deeper nuances of human relationships in business. He combines scholarly clinical thinking, an uncanny personal intuitive ability and a fun and engaging style to his work, advising and mentoring business leaders around the globe. I have benefitted from his books and his mentorship, building my own ‘liberated’ company into a global leader and a successful IPO in 2020.
While I would commend Isaac to any Chairperson or CEO who is interested in unlocking the deeper passion and potential hidden within their organizations and to feel a deeper sense of personal reward in doing so, I would also encourage any Board of Directors considering the choice of the next CEO, to consult Isaac on the all important ‘inner factors’ that will be essential for the next generation of servant leaders.

I contacted Isaac a year after Michelin launched a worldwide project to transform work organisation and management. Isaac was kind enough to listen to me, to delicately share his doubts and his recommendations. We then met on multiple occasions to discuss our experience, Isaac showing a lot of respect for our choices. He was not a “guru”; he was at our side as an advisor helping us identify effective solutions given our context and culture, all while encouraging us to think differently. He helped us to be more daring. And I think we have been!
