THEODORE LEVITT'S HBR ARTICLES

WHAT BUSINESS ARE YOU IN?
By: Levitt, Theodore,
Harvard Business Review,
October 2006, Vol. 84, Issue 10

THEODORE LEVITT (1925-2006)

Levitt carried his practical approach to his tenure as Harvard Business Review’s eighth chief editor, from 1985 to 1989. He was at the same time one of HBR’s most intellectual and most populist editors. He understood that the magazine’s main purpose was to serve as a kind of sophisticated translation, clarifying authors’ raw-–and sometimes rough-–ideas for impatient, time-pressed readers. In both his writing and his editing, he epitomized HBR’s standard of tireless practical engagement with ideas.
