HBR’s Justin Fox joining Bloomberg View

Bloomberg View announced Monday that Justin Fox will join the opinion and analysis site on Jan. 5 as a columnist covering corporate strategy and trends, innovation, and the broad business landscape.

“Justin writes about business with enormous insight, fluency and humor,” said David Shipley, the senior executive editor of Bloomberg View, in a statement. “I know he’s going to become an indispensable read for our audience.”

Fox will be based in New York. He has spent the past five years at the Harvard Business Review Group, most recently as the New York-based executive editor and before that as editorial director. Fox also has been an editor-at-large for Time, where he created and wrote a weekly business and economics column for the magazine as well as the “Curious Capitalist” blog for Time.com. He has also been a writer and editor at Fortune, American Banker and the Birmingham News in Alabama.

“Bloomberg View is home to a spectacular group of people, and I’m honored to be joining them,” said Fox in a statement.

Fox has an undergraduate degree from Princeton University and has been a senior fellow at the Mossavar-Rahmani Center for Business and Government at the Harvard Kennedy School.

He’s the author of “The Myth of the Rational Market,” the best-selling account of how academic financial theories have changed the world, for better and for worse.
