Interview by: Alistair Craven

Michael E. Raynor is the Distinguished Fellow with Deloitte Research. He was born in Brantford, Ontario and holds an undergraduate degree in Philosophy from Harvard College in Cambridge, MA, where he graduated Magna cum Laude.

His thesis on the metaphysics of personal identity has left him absolutely sure he has no idea who he is. During the course of his undergraduate career he was a Detur Prize winner for first-year academic excellence and a John Harvard Scholar for continued academic excellence. He has an MBA (1994) from the Richard Ivey School of Business in London, Ontario, where he was awarded the Nelson M. Davis Memorial Scholarship. He earned his Doctorate in Business Administration from the Harvard Business School (2000) with a dissertation on the sources of corporate value-added in diversified firms. He also earned the Dively Award for research excellence.
