Clayton Christensen
Clayton M. Christensen (1952–2020) was an American academic, business consultant, and the Kim B. Clark Professor of Business Administration at Harvard Business School. He is best known for developing the theory of disruptive innovation, introduced in his 1997 book The Innovator's Dilemma, which distinguished between sustaining technologies that improve established products and disruptive technologies that offer a different value proposition. He co-founded the consulting firm Innosight, the investment firm Rose Park Advisors, and the Clayton Christensen Institute. He passed away in January 2020 at the age of 67.
