| | Christensen, University Professor, Dies at 80 |
 | | Christensen joined the Harvard Business School (HBS) faculty in 1946, and although he formally retired in 1990, he continued to write, teach, and offer seminars on case-method teaching until the last months of his life. |
 | | In the classroom, Christensen was a true artist, moving his arms gracefully, like the conductor of a symphony orchestra, as he posed questions to students, listened carefully to their replies, and then responded all within the rapid give-and-take context of an energetic and rigorous discussion. |
 | | Christensen was the author or co-author of numerous case studies and books, including Teaching and the Case Method; Education for Judgment: The Artistry of Discussion Leadership; Business Policy: Text and Cases; Policy Formulation and Administration; Problems in General Management; The Motivation, Productivity, and Satisfaction of Workers; and Management Succession in Small and Growing Enterprises. |
