Praise for Professor Christensen's latest book -
How Will You Measure Your Life?


"A highly engaging and intensely revealing work"

Publishers Weekly


"More accessible than Covey’s perennial 7 Habits, How Will You Measure Your Life? is provocative but reassuring"

Bloomberg Businessweek


If you're ready to get deep, real quick, you need to read Clay Christensen's new book, "How Will You Measure Your Life," co-written with James Allworth, a consultant and Harvard MBA, and Karen Dillon, former editor of the Harvard Business Review. It mixes tested business theories, a heap of common sense and Clay's deep confidence in the authority of God. It's one of the more surprisingly powerful books of personal philosophy of the 21st century.

The Most Important Decision of Your Life You Make Every Day


Bloomberg Businessweek published an in-depth profile of Clay Christensen and "How Will You Measure Your Life?" The piece weaves together a narrative of Clay's life and the book:

Over the years, he also noticed that many of his former classmates at Harvard and University of Oxford, where Christensen was a Rhodes Scholar, had ended up deeply unhappy. "Something had gone wrong for some of them along the way: their personal relationships had begun to deteriorate, even as their professional prospects blossomed," he writes in the prologue of his new book, How Will You Measure Your Life? Many of these folks stopped attending reunions, and Christensen sensed that they "felt embarrassed to explain to their friends the contrast in the trajectories of their personal and professional lives."
