Pietro Micheli

I’m Professor of Business Performance and Innovation at Warwick Business School, where I lead the Operations Management group and the cross-disciplinary Spotlight on the Future of Business, Manufacturing & Innovation. My work bridges academic research and real-world impact — helping organisations turn strategy into action, drive innovation, and improve performance in complex, fast-changing environments.

Over the past 20 years, I’ve worked with more than 60 organisations worldwide — including Astra Zeneca, BP, Emirates, Jaguar Land Rover, Shell, the UK Cabinet Office and several government agencies in the GCC — as a consultant, mentor, and facilitator. I bring a highly interactive approach to my consulting and executive education work, combining practical experience with state-of-the-art research and methods.

My areas of expertise include: 

  • Strategy: strategy implementation, strategic acumen, and enacting strategic change

  • Innovation: design thinking, customer centricity, agile methods, digital transformation, and AI

  • Operations: performance measurement, business analytics, and operational excellence.

My research has led to the publication of three books and over 60 articles in professional and academic outlets, including Academy of Management Journal, Journal of the Academy of Marketing Science, Research Policy, Journal of Product Innovation Management, and International Journal of Operations & Production Management.

I speak fluent English, Italian, French, and Spanish, and I’m always open to collaboration on consulting, executive education, or speaking engagements.
