Has any single thinker had as much influence on as many domains of organizational scholarship as Jeff Pfeffer? Power, health, demography, careers, corporate politics — Jeff’s contributions have been both singular and lasting. Many of us owe our careers to the pathways he blazed.

At long last, a group of Jeff’s students and colleagues is hosting an event to celebrate Jeff and his career. (Just to be clear: Jeff is not going anywhere, and has no plans to ease up on Stanford administrators as long as Hoover Tower is still standing.) The best way to celebrate Jeff is to engage his work, share the newest insights that have followed, and anticipate future directions.

We invite you to save the date — Friday, May 20 and Saturday, May 21, 2022 — to join the Pfestival, a once-in-a-lifetime chance to celebrate a once-a-century scholar.
