Harvard Business Review Names Executive Editors

Harvard Business School Publishing (HBSP) announced three promotions that signal the emergence of a new leadership team on the editorial side of the Harvard Business Review. Suzy Wetlaufer is promoted to Senior Executive Editor, Nicholas Carr and Sarah Cliffe, each to Executive Editor. All were formerly Senior Editors at the Review.

"In discussions of HBR's future, Suzy, Nick, and Sarah have been in the forefront of conceiving and articulating how the Review should develop to play the same critical role for 21st century business leaders as it has in the past," said Walter Kiechel, Senior Vice President and Editorial Director of Harvard Business School Publishing. "We're delighted that together they've stepped up to the challenge of putting this vision into practice."

Following Nan Stone's January 1999 departure as Editor of the Review to accept a faculty appointment at Harvard Business School, the magazine has been run by an editorial team that has included Wetlaufer, Carr, and Cliffe, under Kiechel's overall guidance. During this time, HBR has introduced new departments like "Forethought" which features short interviews, business graphics, and more speculative pieces than had previously appeared in the magazine. It launched the HBR Forum for online discussions of the ideas it publishes and contributes to "Ideas @ Work on the Air," broadcast segments syndicated to radio stations across the country.

Concurrently, the magazine has been executing a growth plan to achieve wider distribution -- especially through new media, a wider variety of articles, and new platforms for authors, such as its participation in the May 2000 debut of HBSP's conference series "Burning Questions." Plans for the future include increasing the frequency of the publication and working with other partners in new media.
