BIF Research Advisor Clay Christensen Named to 50 Greatest Business Minds List

bif3_moss_clay.jpgWe're nearing the end of the year so of course the inevitable list launch is happening. This one we're rather fond of though - it's the London Times annual list of the globes top 50 business thinkers. BIF Research Advisor Clay Christensen comes in at no. 25. Of course we're not surprised. Clay Christensen has a brilliant business mind which he demonstrated at our recent summit. (His onstage interview with WSJ columnist Walt Mossberg can be watched here.)

Check out The Times list which includes other innovation gurus like CK Prahalad who was named the most influential living management guru in the world. Also on the list, Michael Porter, Vijay Govindarajan, W. Chan Kim & Renée Mauborgne and Costas Markides. (The list is generated through the newspaper's biennial poll of business thinkers.)

Missing from the list, which in my opinion skews too far towards academia is GE's Jeff Immelt and P&G's AJ Lafley. Who else should have been included?
