Career

Current Version:

In 2008, he co-founded Kotter International with two others, where he currently serves as Chairman. The business consultancy firm applies Kotter's research on leadership, strategy execution, transformation, and any form of large-scale change.

Since early in his career, Kotter has received numerous awards for his thought leadership in his field from Harvard Business Review, Bloomberg BusinessWeek, Thinkers50, Global Gurus and others.


Edited Version:

(Was not able to find any information from the first paragraph regarding starting in 2008 only 2010, and then Kotter was the founder not co-founder from what all I have read.) John Kotter is an emeritus from Harvard Business School where he started teaching in 1972.[1] He is the founder Kotter International, and started his business in 2010 with locations in Cambridge Massachusetts and Seattle Washington. He currently serves as Chairman of the consulting business alongside CEO, Rick Western, Chief Commercial Officer, Kathy Gersch, Chief Financial Officer, Tanya Kruger and many more. [5]

(Seems like close plagiarism from the [3] cite. Under dropdown [Who We Are] / [Our Team] / [JOHN KOTTER]) Since early in his career, Kotter has received numerous awards for his thought leadership in the business field from Harvard Business Review, Bloomberg BusinessWeek, Thinkers50, Global Gurus and others.

(Added this to compensate for the section I am calling close plagiarism. It is very generic, but it summarizes the rest of Kotters career highlights.) Kotter is also an author, speaker, and entrepreneur in the lines of business and leadership.[2]
