Dave Ulrich is a Professor of Business at the University of Michigan and a partner at the RBL Group, a consulting firm focused on helping organizations and leaders deliver value. He studies how organizations build capabilities of speed, learning, collaboration, accountability, talent, and leadership through leveraging human resources. He has helped generate award winning data bases that assess alignment between strategies, human resource practices and HR competencies.
As one of the world's leading human resource management educators and consultants, Ulrich has consulted and done research with over half of the Fortune 200.
He is highly acclaimed internationally as a business thinker, researcher, writer and teacher who challenges the conventional wisdom surrounding leadership by shifting the focus to the connection between the attributes and the results of leadership, which leads to a useful new perspective on effective leadership at both the personal and organizational levels.
Ulrich urges aspiring leaders at all levels of an organization to strive for success. He suggests that much leadership teaching focuses too narrowly on personal attributes such as vision, character and trust, whilst attention to the critical connection between leadership abilities and the desired results is lacking.
He was the Editor Human Resource Management Journal (1990-1999), served on the editorial board of 4 other Journals, is on the Board of Directors for Herman Miller, is a Fellow in the National Academy of Human Resources; and co-founder of the Michigan Human Resource Partnership.
Ulrich offers his audience practical tips and in-depth understanding of how companies actually work and specialises in change management and business strategy.
