After
an early career as an award-winning journalist and university
professor, Dr. Rodger Dean Duncan founded
The Duncan Company in 1972 to serve the needs of organizations
seeking to boost performance.
His

House administrations.
A
highly-sought-after speaker, trainer, and executive coach, Dr.

management of change
– for individuals as well as for organizations. He has been the

related
to human performance and organizational effectiveness. (See
"The Challenge of Change," Dr.
Duncan's interview in The Nuclear Professional magazine.)
Dr. Duncan served two terms on the Advisory Council of the Institute of
Nuclear Power Operations (INPO). In that capacity, he advised
the INPO board of directors and staff on issues and practices
that are important to continuous performance improvement. (The
INPO board consists of the CEOs of major utility companies.)
In addition to his consulting practice, Dr. Duncan headed
worldwide communication for Campbell Soup Company and was vice
president of Kerr-McGee, a global energy company. He also served
on the faculties of three major universities.
The Duncan Company, now headquartered in the Kansas City,
Missouri, metropolitan area, has affiliates in North America,
Europe, and Australia.
Top-selling author Stephen Covey calls Rodger's work on
leadership "brilliantly insightful, inspiring
– profound, yet user friendly – visionary, yet practical."
Rodger earned a Ph.D. in communication and organizational
dynamics at Purdue University.
The Duncan Report, his Internet
column on leadership and organizational effectiveness, now
reaches opt-in business subscribers in more than 185 countries.
