Kim B. Clark is the NAC Distinguished Professor of Management at the BYU Marriott School of Business. I received the BA, MA and Ph.D. degrees in economics from Harvard University. I loined the faculty of the Harvard Business School in 1978 and served as Dean of the Faculty from 1995 to 2005. My teaching and research at HBS focused on product development, and operations strategy, with particular attention to the role of senior leaders in creating outstanding performance in innovation, productivity and quality. My later work focused on modularity in design and the interaction of technological change and competition in industry evolution. During my years as Dean at HBS I focused on articulating the school’s mission – educating leaders who make a difference in the world – and pursued initiatives in leadership and values, entrepreneurship, technology in learning and education, and international research and case writing. In 2005 I left HBS to become the president of BYU-Idaho. It was a remarkable time to pursue the mission of the university to develop disciple-leaders with initiatives in a Christ-centered learning model, online education to increase access, and Pathway, a program to open access to higher education to students all over the world. Campus enrollment at BYU-Idaho expanded from 12,500 students in 2005 to over 25,000; with the addition of online enrollment, the number is 43,000, In April of 2015 I was sustained as a General Authority Seventy of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. During my time in the Seventy I served as the Commissioner of the Church Educational System with educational programs that serve over 1 million students. I received emeritus status in 2019, and joined the faculty of the BYU Marriott School of Business. I was born in Salt Lake City, Utah, on March 20, 1949. I grew up in Spokane Washington and graduate from high school there. After one year at Harvard, I served a mission in Germany. I was blessed to marry Sue Lorraine Hunt in June 1971. We are the parents of seven children, and we have 26 grandchildren.
