James H.
Lowry grew up in Jim Crow era Chicago. After graduating from
Grinnell College and spending time in the Peace
Corps, Jim became McKinsey & Company's first
African-American consultant in 1968 and, years later, the first
black senior partner at Boston Consulting Group (BCG).
Jim worked with mayors, the federal government and leading
corporations to implement ground-breaking and historic workforce
and supplier diversity programs. Lowry continues to serve as a
senior advisor to BCG, while heading his own private consulting
firm, James H. Lowry & Associates.
His new
memoir, Change Agent, chronicles Jim's
amazing life. As impressive as his professional resume is, the
stories he has about his youth, college years and his work in the
Peace Corps will blow your mind. Jim’s not only smart,
incredibly accomplished, and networked out the wazoo, but he is
just one cool guy. Special thanks to my friend and
former Facebook colleague, Kay Madati for the
introduction to Jim.
