I don't see a WP:NPROF pass here, and I don't see a WP:GNG pass either. The sources in the article are all WP:SPS; searching online, I find basically no news sources (although he's published a few op-eds and quoted in a few others), it doesn't look like WP:SIGCOV to me. jp×g 04:25, 11 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Keep I think there is a pass of WP:Prof here. Xxanthippe (talk) 04:48, 11 December 2021 (UTC).[reply]

@Xxanthippe: Not to be a dick, but where? It looks like he partially fulfills criterion 5 with the named professorship position, but it's not a chair position, as far as I can tell. jp×g 06:17, 11 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

WP:PROF#C1. Xxanthippe (talk) 08:11, 11 December 2021 (UTC).[reply]

Keep. I'm not entirely sure of the nature of the "Hochberg Professorial Fellow of Leadership Development" (the actual title) and whether it is really a chair/professorship or something else (the "Fellow" part is a little unusual and is throwing me off). But I think the case for WP:PROF#C1 through many well-cited publications [1] is strong, as is the case for #C8 as editor-in-chief of a notable if strangely-named journal, Academy of Management Learning and Education. There may also be a case for WP:AUTHOR if we can replace the spammy Amazon links with proper reviews. —David Eppstein (talk) 06:39, 11 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Keep Clearly Passes WP:Prof & WP:AUTHOR Juggyevil (talk) 08:59, 11 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Keep passes WP:PROF#C1.Pharaoh of the Wizards (talk) 11:49, 11 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Comment: I am perfectly willing to withdraw this nomination if someone finds RS talking about "significant impact in their scholarly discipline, broadly construed, as demonstrated by independent reliable sources" (per WP:NPROF). I was unable to. At present, all I see is a single citation to his profile on a university webpage, as well as two citations to books that he wrote (which are perfectly valid citations to back up the fact that he wrote the books per WP:ABOUTSELF, they do not seem to do anything to demonstrate notability). jp×g 12:21, 11 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Take a look at the scholar link four inches above. Xxanthippe (talk) 21:42, 11 December 2021 (UTC).[reply]

Keep Agree with the keep voters and what David Epstein said. MartinWilder (talk) 03:47, 14 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. Would appear to meet WP:NPROF #5 as holder of a named professorial chair. -- Necrothesp (talk) 13:54, 15 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
