Tom Peters

Peters changed the business world in 1982 when he co-authored In Search of Excellence. His book ushered in a management revolution, changing how leaders viewed their relationships with customers and employees. He followed Search with a string of international bestsellers, including the influential Liberation Management and a dazzling series of books on reinventing work. He presents about 100 major seminars a year, writes hundreds of articles for different publications, and serves as chairman of the Tom Peters Company. When he’s not on an airplane, he lives on a 1,500-acre farm in Vermont. His most recent interests are in capturing the underserved market represented by baby boomers and in bringing excellence to health care.
