For more than 35 years, Ed Chambliss helped build many kinds of brands and businesses, from electronics to food to tourism, based on what they meant to people. Over his career, he’s seen many otherwise smart clients damage the foundations of their companies by always putting shareholders first. In 2018, he walked away from being a CEO to research why business was on such a destructive path and what could be done to change it. The result is the book, A One-Legged Stool: How Shareholder Primacy Has Broken Business (And What We Can Do About It).

Ed currently lives in Los Angeles with his wife and two daughters.

A One-Legged Stool: How Shareholder Primacy Has Broken Business (And What We Can Do About It) is now available. For more on the book, visit https://aoneleggedstool.com/.
