Mark Albion (born April 3, 1951) is an American business theorist, social entrepreneur and author of values-based business literature. == Biography == Albion received his post-secondary degrees from Harvard University, including a BA in Economics, a joint MA/MBA and a joint PhD/DBA in Business Economics from Harvard University and Harvard Business School. He wrote his undergraduate thesis under the direction of Professor Janet L. Yellen, who became the 15th chair of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System in 2014. During his graduate studies, Albion was mentored by Professor John V. Lintner, whose work was awarded the Nobel Prize in 1990. His doctoral thesis, which received the AMA's award for Best Doctoral Dissertation of 1981, was written under the supervision of Professor Michael Porter. From 1982 to 1988, Albion served as an assistant professor and then as an associate professor at Harvard Business School, where he taught MBA retail management and marketing classes, and developed the classroom material to introduce the personal computer into the MBA curriculum. He focused on Harvard doctoral programs and helped create joint doctoral programs with other Harvard schools. He was featured by 60 Minutes as one of the top young (under 40) business-school professors in the country. In 1986, his mother's battle against cancer prompted Albion to reflect upon his goals and the role of business in alleviating poverty and suffering. That year, he connected with responsible business leaders who in 1987 formed the Social Venture Network (SVN). In the summer of 1988, Albion left Harvard Business School to develop a community of service-minded MBAs. In the ensuing quarter-century, he made over 600 speaking trips to universities and their business schools to build a network for students interested in transforming enterprise to create a world of more social and economic justice, serving as Faculty Founder of what is today called Net Impact. Coupled with his subsequent involvement with U.S. Congress and officially the United Nations on how to educate socially responsible young leaders, Business Week dubbed Albion as "the savior of b-school souls." From 2009 to 2010, Albion served in the Office of the President at Babson College to help integrate social values and sustainability into the college, and founded the inaugural AshokaU Changemaker Campus Team. In 2011, Albion co-founded with neuroscientist Dr. Mrim Boutla, (More Than Money Careers ), which provides an e-learning, self-leadership career platform to help students, alums and professionals get clear, connected and hired for well-paying social impact jobs that fit their values. As of 2014, the company had 52 university clients and had won several awards for its ed-tech platform, including Ashoka's Cordes Innovation award in 2013. Albion is heavily involved in interfaith religious events, as a teacher and participant, and most prominently in adult Jewish education, earning a two-year degree from Hebrew College in 2002.
