Ming-Jer
Chen is the Leslie E. Grayson Professor of Business Administration at
the Darden Graduate School, University of Virginia. He is also
affiliated with the Chinese University of Hong Kong and the Imperial
College of Science, Technology, & Medicine in the U.K. He holds degrees
from National Chung-Hsing University, Taipei (B.S.), and the University
of Maryland (M.B.A., Ph.D.). He started his teaching career at Columbia
Business School and was founder/director of the Global Chinese Business
Initiative at the Wharton School, University of Pennsylvania.
A prominent strategy scholar known for his work in competitive dynamics,
Ming-Jer has published widely in premier management journals. His book
Inside Chinese Business: A Guide for Managers Worldwide was published in
2001 by Harvard Business School Press and reviewed by Foreign Affairs.
He has received awards from such prestigious organizations as the
Academy of Management, where he served as the Chair of the Business
Policy and Strategy Division. He has served as associate editor of
Academy of Management Review. Beyond scholarly work, he speaks regularly
to business groups and the media, including at the World Economic
Forum’s China Business Summit 2000 in Beijing and the USChina Executive
Summit in New York (2004), China CEO Forum in Beijing (2007), and HSM’s
forums in Buenos Aires (2006), São Paulo (2007), and Milan (2007). In
2008 he was selected by Commonwealth magazine (Taipei) as one of
seventy-two role models from business, cultural, and social arenas
worldwide.
Ming-Jer was born and raised in Taitung, which has been described as
“one of the most backward towns in Taiwan.” Before he left Taiwan in the
early 80s, he had the privilege of studying with a master in the Chinese
classics. This exposure and his small-town upbringing helped foster a
devotion to “making the world smaller” and a strong belief in balance
and integration. Ming-Jer lives in Charlottesville with his wife and two
sons. When he is not teaching and writing, he enjoys reading
international news, listening to commentaries, and simply breathing in
the air of Thomas Jefferson’s “academical village.”
