Clayton Christensen not only changed the way we look at milk shakes, his seemingly simple reframing of a drink available in fast food chains was a surprising experience for many of us.
He wrote important business books such as “The Innovator’s Dilemma” and in 2011 Forbes called him “one of the most influential business theorists of the last 50 years”. But the most important thing is that he actually made us think in ways we never thought we could think: His view of the milk shake reframed our thinking. This is what great teachers are all about.
Thank you, Mr Christensen! We will miss you.
