John Levin is the Philip H. Knight Professor and Dean of Stanford Graduate School of Business. Before becoming dean in 2016, John spent 16 years in the economic department at Stanford. In 2021, he was appointed to President Joe Biden's Council of Advisors on Science and Technology.
As the dean of Stanford Graduate School of Business, Dean Jon Levin knows the importance of crafting the right message and sharing it in the right way. But, as he says, one of the biggest challenges for any leader is to know what to communicate, and how.
