Type of Fellow: Change Fellow
Description: Jerry Michalski is the president of Sociate, founder of the Yi-Tan Collective and co-host with Pip of the Yi-Tan Weekly Tech Community calls (Mondays at 1:30pm Eastern time).
Jerry spent over ten years as a tech industry analyst, the last five writing Esther Dyson's monthly newsletter, Release 1.0. Since 1998, he has been an independent consultant working with large corporations, stealthy startups, edgy conferences and nimble non-profits.
Like Pip, Jerry's a student of change. He specializes in foreseeing the interactions between technology, business and society. A firm believer that people are the "killer app," Jerry often finds himself a lone champion for treating people well.
