Daniel Patrick Forrester, for the past 15 years as author and consultant, has addressed the complexities facing leaders in coping with the increasing role of government and technology as unprecedented change agents. In this he is widely considered a thought leader and his counsel is sought by Fortune 100 and 500 companies, non-profits and government agencies.
His strategic consulting engagements have been diverse, from Verizon, Sprint and Dow Chemical to AARP, the Department of Homeland Security and the Library of Congress. His pioneering work on the cultural evolution within companies is today an integral curriculum segment in public policy studies. He is frequently in demand at such organizations as the Brookings Institution and the top-ranked Booth School of Business, University of Chicago.
He is a director and executive with Sapient Government Services, a subsidiary of Sapient Corp., a leading consultancy bridging the fields of government, technology and management. His latest book: “Consider: Harnessing the Power of Reflective Thinking in Your Organization,” (published in January 2011) argues that technology’s tsunami of information is crowding out time for reflective thinking, a mental space that leads to failures more than to successes. Mr. Forrester is an MBA graduate from the University of Rochester’s William E. Simon Graduate School of Business and his BA is from the Catholic University in Washington, D.C
