(Oxford’s flagship programs are currently ranked #2 in the world by Financial Times.) Chris’ monthly essays (published at www.kutarna.net (http://www.kutarna.net) ) are read by thousands of senior executives, journalists, academics, policy makers and business leaders. He has been a two-time Governor General’s Medallist, a Commonwealth Scholar, and a Fellow of the Oxford Martin School at Oxford University. Chris consulted with BCG in New Zealand, Australia and China. Chris holds a doctorate in Politics (of China) from the University of Oxford, started a business in Beijing, and speaks Mandarin.
