Thinkers50 2019 Awards
Every two years, Thinkers50 hosts a unique event in central
London; a gathering of the very best minds in management
thinking for a day of ideas, discussion, debate and
networking. In the evening there are the awards and the
announcement of the new Thinkers50 Ranking of the world’s
leading management thinkers. Started in 2001, today this
ranking is widely considered the most influential of its kind.
2 The shortlist for 2019 covers people from a wide range of
1 backgrounds and skillsets; Clayton Christensen 1, in his
co-written book, focuses on the vexing problem of global
poverty, while Anders Indset 2, in his book, argues that
if we want to understand society, we must rethink the
economy. They are both on the Breakthrough Idea Awards
shortlist. Meanwhile, on the Innovation Award shortlist are
individuals such as Vijay Govindarajan 3 who introduced
the concept of ‘reverse innovation’. Over on Thinkers50
Radar - their list of management thinkers to watch - is
Marga Hoek 4 who is passionate about the need to bridge
the gap between words and action if sustainability is to be
3 4 more than empty and ironic rhetoric. We will have to wait
until Monday 18th November, when the final ranking and
presentation of the awards will be announced.
