Chuck Martin is a New York Times business best-selling author, researcher, speaker, and business strategist.

Martin offers invaluable context and pragmatic solutions to the problems leaders at all levels face today, helping them refocus on what matters most: overall vision, customers, strategy, and execution. He is the author of seven business books, including most recently, Tough Management, the business fable Coffee at Luna’s and the upcoming Smarts: Are We Hardwired for Success (January 2007).

As the Chairman and CEO of NFI Research, Martin is at the nexus of a global idea exchange and the leader of a research engine that regularly samples the mood and intentions of 2,000 senior executives and managers from 1,400 companies in 50 countries, including many of the Fortune 100. This gives him a staggering amount of useful information and a true, up-to-the-minute view of today’s workplace. The broad base of his network, the robust and virtually instantaneous nature of his process, and his experience analyzing results give him unusual insight into business and workplace trends.

A former vice president of IBM responsible for a global division dealing with Media and Entertainment, Martin has helped identify successful corporate business strategies for some of the leading companies in the world. Prior to joining IBM, he was the founding publisher and Chief Operating Officer of Interactive Age, the magazine credited with helping to define the interactive marketplace and the first publication to launch simultaneously in print and on the World Wide Web.

Martin’s last book, Managing for the Short Term, investigates how companies large and small are managing in today’s volatile world of disruptive technologies, sudden downturns and upturns in the economy, and tumultuous world events. He reassembles the profound disconnect he sees between many organizations’ long-term strategic vision and the short-term actions needed to realize that vision. He is the author of Net Future, The Digital Estate, and (co-author) Max-e-Marketing He also has written a business fable, entitled Coffee at Luna’s, about an overworked manager who can’t get off the treadmill of work until he learns three valuable lessons that totally improve his situation and those around him as well.

He writes a nationally syndicated newspaper column on management and business issues and regularly appears on television business shows.
