Thornton, Chair of the Board, Brookings: What happens in the early years of a child's life matters immensely in shaping the rest of that child's life.

Kenneth Guy Lieberthal is an American academic. He is senior fellow in Foreign Policy and Global Economy and Development at the Brookings Institution, a nonprofit public-policy organization based in Washington, D.C. Previously he was the Director of the John L. Thornton China Center. Early life and education Lieberthal was born in Asheville, North Carolina, the son of Naomi (née Bird) and Milton Lieberthal. In 1965, he received a bachelor of arts degree with distinction from Dartmouth College, located in Hanover, New Hampshire. In 1968, Lieberthal received a Master of Arts degree and East Asian Institute Certificate from Columbia University, located in New York City, New York. In 1972, he received a Doctor of Philosophy degree in political science (comparative politics) from Columbia as well. Career He was the Special Assistant to the President for National Security Affairs and Senior Director for Asia at the U.S. National Security Council during the Clinton Administration. He was formerly a professor of political science at the University of Michigan, located in Ann Arbor, Michigan, where he served as an expert on contemporary Chinese political issues. He was also the William Davidson Professor at the University of Michigan's Ross School of Business. His research focused on the evolution of China's political economy, multinational corporate investment in China and India, foreign policy decision-making in China, U.S. foreign policy, and Asian security issues. Lieberthal was a professor of political science at Swarthmore College in Swarthmore, Pennsylvania from 1972 to 1983. In political science, Lieberthal taught the popular "China's Evolution under Communism" for most years from 1983 to 2007. At the Ross School, he taught the "Doing Business with China" MBA course each year through 2008, which generated great interest among business-school students interested in how multinational corporations can succeed in China. The course frequently included invitational lectures from leading experts in the relevant areas, including senior executives of American corporations' China business, as well as China scholars in law, business and social sciences. Lieberthal serves on numerous academic, non-governmental organization and business-advisory committees and on the editorial boards of six academic journals. His recent work has focused especially at developing ways to increase U.S.--China cooperation on clean energy and climate change. He is a member of the board of the National Committee on United States -- China Relations. Managing the China Challenge Lieberthal's book Managing the China Challenge: How to Achieve Corporate Success in the People's Republic explores the economic transformation China is undergoing and the opportunities this growth presents for multinational corporations. The book was released in May 2011 by the Brookings Institution Press. In straightforward language, with numerous examples to back up his argument, Lieberthal presents not only how to benefit from doing business in China, but also how to avoid the serious risks that the endeavor entails. The implications that Lieberthal lays out for corporate strategy are wide-ranging and critically important. "This is a book to read before one begins work in China and to come back to once there. With its comprehensive analysis of challenges and insightful recommended responses, it efficiently points executives in the right direction and helps them avoid the errors that others have made. It has the potential to give any executive a flying start to executing their China strategy." —from the Foreword by Dominic Barton Selected bibliography Books 1991.
