鈥淲hat a lovely honor! Ever since Stuart and I first met鈥攁t Heathrow Airport, in 1997 聽to be interviewed for the initial edition of Stuart and Des鈥檚 book about business thinkers 鈥� I have tried to be true to the answer I gave to one of his questions. He asked about the competition in this guru business, and I blurted out in my jet-lagged stupor, that I never felt that competition. 鈥業 never set out to be the best. It鈥檚 too low a standard. I set out to be good鈥�. It is so nice to be recognized for being good!鈥�

Henry Mintzberg鈥檚 books include The Nature of Managerial Work, Mintzberg on Management, The Rise and Fall of Strategic Planning, Simply Managing, and, most recently, .

鈥淲e have interviewed Henry many times since he was described as the enfant terrible of the strategy world and he is never short of an informed and interesting opinion,鈥� says Thinkers50鈥檚 Stuart Crainer.聽 鈥淏ut these opinions are always founded on deep research.聽 He has swum against the tide 鈥� such as with his views on MBA programs and directly examining what managers spend their time doing 鈥� but has usually been proved right.鈥�

Henry Mintzberg will receive his award at the Thinkers50 awards evening on 9 November 2015 at Drapers鈥� Hall in London at an event which will be attended by management thinkers from throughout the world. 聽聽Throughout October Thinkers50 will be highlighting Mintzberg鈥檚 work.
