Dr. Les Stein - Northeastern University
Les retired as a colonel in the United States Marine Corps after serving 27 years on active duty. As a Marine officer, he served in numerous leadership positions, with more than 10 years in operational commands and 10 years in training and education commands. After retirement from the Marine Corps, Les worked as the executive director of two charter schools, both of which were failing and needed to be turned around. He believes strongly that an organization’s primary success comes from strong leadership first and technical or operational capabilities second. Les has published two books, one on business strategies and the other on turning around failing schools, along with numerous journal articles on leadership. He is the director of the Master of Science in Organizational Leadership Program at Northeastern University’s College of Professional Studies.
