 | Jeffrey E. Garten |
Jeffrey E. Garten, who will become the Juan Trippe Professor in the Practice of International Trade, Finance and Business after he steps down as dean of the School of Management (SOM) on June 30, is an expert in international economics, international organizations and foreign affairs.
Garten will take a one-year sabbatical before returning to teach at SOM
Before coming to Yale in 1995, he was undersecretary of commerce for international trade in the first Clinton administration. In that capacity, he oversaw the International Trade Administration, which was responsible for helping American businesses sell products and services in overseas markets.
Garten previously was vice president and later managing director of Lehman Brothers (1978-1987), and he founded and managed Eliot Group Inc. (1987-1991), a small investment bank. He was managing director of Blackstone Group (1991-1993). Earlier in his career, he served on the White House Council on International Economic Policy in the Nixon administration and on the policy planning staffs of Secretaries of State Henry Kissinger and Cyrus Vance. He was also an adjunct professor at New York University's School of Arts and Sciences.
Garten holds a B.A. from Dartmouth College and an M.A. and Ph.D. from Johns Hopkins University. He served in the U.S. Army's 82nd Airborne Division and the Special Forces, with an overseas assignment in Southeast Asia.
During his tenure as dean of SOM, student enrollment, faculty size and alumni giving grew substantially. The school established the International Center for Finance, the International Institute for Corporate Governance and several other ventures. It also developed joint degree programs with two professional schools at Yale.
In addition to scores of articles, essays and op-ed pieces, Garten has written four books: "A Cold Peace: America, Japan, Germany and the Struggle for Supremacy," "The Big Ten: The Big Emerging Markets and How They Will Change Our Lives," "The Mind of the CEO" and "The Politics of Fortune: A New Agenda for Business Leaders."
