About Me

My photo
The Peripatetic Philosopher
Started out as a chemist, then chemical sales engineer, then corporate executive, then consultant, professor, keynote speaker and author. I am trained as a chemist and organization/industrial psychologiest, and am a former corporate executive of Nalco Chemical Company and Honeywell Europe, Ltd. For the past thirty years, I have been working and consulting in North and South America, Europe and South Africa. I am the author of eight books in the genre of organizational development, and some 300 published articles on what I call "cultural capital." This relates to risk-taking, self-reliance, social cohesion, work habits, and relationships to power for a changing workforce in an ever changing work climate. My background includes working as a laborer in a chemical plant while going to college, and ending my active working career in the boardrooms of multinationals.
