ALFREDO
BEHRENS

Alfredo Behrens studies whether something as vast as the sun's activity shapes something as intimate as who we choose to lead us. A cross-cultural leadership expert with a Ph.D. from Cambridge who has taught at Harvard, Princeton, and the London Business School before settling at FIA Business School, he is now known equally for a peer-reviewed strand of research arguing that leadership style — communal versus agentic, consensus-seeking versus individualist — pendulums in step with the roughly eleven-year solar cycle. His earlier, more conventional work includes Culture and Management in the Americas (Stanford University Press) and the award-winning Gaucho Dialogues on Leadership and Management (Anthem Press), and he has advised board members across banking, pharmaceuticals, energy, and technology, with commentary appearing regularly in Harvard Business Review and the Financial Times.
