Consultant Ram Charan spoke at UW-L
Author spoke as part of school’s
yearly series in memory of Russ Cleary
He meets with CEOs all over the planet.
Wednesday, community leaders and students got some advice from consultant and author Ram Charan.
A day after returning from Turkey, Charan was speaking on the University of Wisconsin-La Crosse. He said he gave up research posts and other prestigious jobs at major universities, because he’d rather be out in the field, consulting.
One of Charan’s best known books, The Attacker’s Advantage, talks about successful business people who know when to capitalize on a good situation.
He’s the first guest lecturer in a new yearly series at UW-L, named in memory of former Heileman Brewery chairman Russ Cleary.
