Carin Isabel-Knoop

Exposed as a child to the fatal consequences of a toxic workplace on mental health on her family, Mrs. Knoop attended Harvard Business School to learn how to build better organizations. As the head of the Harvard Business School Case Research & Writing Group for the past two decades she and her team have supported the development of over 2,000 case studies on organizations all over the world. 

In addition to working on cases and research projects related to health care and well-being, leadership and organizational design, she has developed and refined a set of management tools focused on maximizing mental health and professional well-being. She works with organizations and leaders interesting in human sustainability, and speaks and writes extensively on mental health at work, including a book on Compassionate Management of Mental Health in the Modern Workplace (Springer).  

Mrs. Knoop, formerly a consultant in Europe, earned an MBA from Harvard Business School and a Bachelor of Arts from the University of Texas at Austin.
