An innovation and disruption theorist, Johnson is a frequent contributor to Harvard Business Review and MIT Sloan Management Review, and author of the bestselling "Build an A-Team," a Financial Times and 800-CEO-READ Book of the Month, and "Disrupt Yourself," which Publisher’s Weekly called “Savvy . . . often counterintuitive . . . superb.” In her books, she codifies her Personal Disruption and S Curve of Learning frameworks for developing high-growth individuals and organizations.
