Peter S. Cohan is a management consultant, venture capitalist, and author who has dedicated his career to helping companies and entrepreneurs achieve rapid, sustainable growth. Drawing on decades of hands-on experience advising businesses across industries, he brings a practitioner's perspective to the challenges of competitive strategy, market disruption, and organizational transformation.
Cohan serves as a professor of management practice at Babson College, one of the world's premier entrepreneurship schools, where he teaches courses on strategy and new venture growth. His classroom insights are deeply informed by his work in the field — he has consulted for Fortune 500 companies, launched and invested in startups, and closely studied the strategies of both market leaders and bold challengers.
A prolific author, Cohan has written numerous books examining the principles behind business success and failure, from analyzing how companies outmaneuver competitors to identifying the leadership qualities that drive breakthrough performance. His programs for Nightingale-Conant translate these frameworks into actionable strategies that listeners can apply directly to their own businesses and careers.
