Biografie
Jorge Hirter studied economics at Columbia University in New York City (B.A.) and at the University of Basel (lic. rer. pol. / M.A.) and completed his MBA at INSEAD in Fontainebleau. He acquired business and management experience during his international career with Swiss Bank Corporation (now UBS), Procter & Gamble and Roland Berger. In 2003 he founded Hirter Consulting to provide advisory services to top management in the areas of strategy and organizational design. Since 2007 he also lectures in the program Design Management, International, where he is member of the leadership team. He is fluent in English, Spanish, German and French.
His research interests lie in practices for the next generation of leaders in addressing complex situations. The designer mindset, and related techniques and tools provide very valuable impulses, but the challenge lies in the development of a fundamentally new body of management thought.
