Biography

Over the past 35 years, Dr. Itzhak Calderon Adizes has worked with many commercial organizations in the world, and has been a consultant on political issues to the governments of heads of state such as Israel, Sweden, Greece, Brazil, Ghana, Iceland, Mexico, Macedonia, etc. Adizes is the founder and CEO of the Adizes Institute, a change management organization with affiliates in the United States and 14 other countries.

He was a tenured faculty member at the UCLA Anderson School of Management for thirty years and has served as a visiting faculty member at Stanford and Columbia Universities, as well as at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem and Tel Aviv University. Dr. Adizes holds a Ph.D and MBA from Columbia University and a BA from the Hebrew University of Jerusalem.

He currently holds the post of Director of the Adizes Institute. He is also a featured author and lectures in more than 40 countries. Adizes' work has been covered in magazines such as Fortune, New York Times, Financial Times, and maintains close ties with investors in Daily Nation Business and World Digest.

He is the author of seven books, translated into 22 languages. His book "Corporate Processes: How Organizations Grow and Die, and What to Do About It?" It is considered a classic textbook in management theory, and was selected as one of the top 10 business books in the Library Journal. According to the results of the rating of “100 best consultants in the field of leadership” by the publication “Executive Excellence” (2008-2009), Adizes takes 28th place.

Adizes is known for his theory of company life cycles, as well as his approach to the typology of managers. In his opinion, the ideal leader - a super-boss who can do everything - simply does not exist. This is impossible because such an “ideal” person must combine qualities that, according to Adizes, are incompatible. These qualities are necessary and sufficient to fulfill the purpose of the business. Here is what Adizes himself writes in the book “The Ideal Leader”:

…the ultimate goal of the management process is to make the organization effective and efficient in the short and long term - no more and no less. If we ensure effectiveness and efficiency in the short and long term, this is enough for the well-being and success of any organizational structure, be it a marriage, a government, a multinational corporation or a candy store.

Adizes lists four such qualities that are needed to achieve short-term and long-term effectiveness and efficiency: producer of results (P, producer), administrator (A, administrator), entrepreneur (E, entrepreneur) and integrator (I, Integrator). By initial letters With these four English words, the model of leadership types forms the acronym PAEI. These qualities contradict each other, since, for example, a good producer of results will be intolerant of excessive order, which an administrator is prone to, and an entrepreneur will always come up with something new, which can interfere with both the producer of results and the integrator aimed at harmonizing relationships in the team. Thus, the company should not be headed by a super-boss, but by a group of super-bosses, each of whom perfectly performs one of the four roles and has a normal understanding of the others.

The Adizes method is used all over the world in companies with sales volumes from $2 million to $2 billion (Coca-Cola, Bank of America, Volvo, Visa Group, etc.).

Since 2010, the Adizes Institute has an official partner in Moscow. It became the company "BEST-Training" (director - M. E. Kukushkin)
