Michael Raynor, MBA, DBA

Adjunct Faculty, University of Maryland Project Management Center for Excellence Co-Founder, Canary Medical Author & Co-Author, The Innovator’s Solution, The Innovator’s Manifesto, and The Strategy Paradox

For more than 25 years as a consultant and researcher, I have grappled with the twinned challenges of innovation and uncertainty.

I have worked with clients in many and diverse industries, and codified what I think I've learned in four best-selling and critically acclaimed books, including "The Innovator's Solution" (co-authored with Clayton M. Christensen) and "The Strategy Paradox," and hundreds of articles in scholarly (e.g. Strategy Management Journal) and practitioner (e.g., Harvard Business Review) articles.

As a co-founder of S3 Markets, I am applying these insights to enable the rapid, radical decarbonization of key hard-to-abate sectors by giving companies with net zero ambitions the agency they need to support the deployment of transformational low-carbon production technologies. We are disrupting carbon markets to transform product markets.

In parallel, as an Associate Professor at Ivey Business School, I am extending my innovation research into the sustainability space via collaborations in academe and industry, while my teaching brings the resulting insights to the next generation of business leaders.

As a founding investor in Canary Medical, I hope to transform both the practice of medicine and the quality of patient care to radically improve health outcomes.
