Ichak Adizes

I was born in 1937 in Skopje, Macedonia. While 7,153 Macedonian Jews were sent to Treblinka, my family escaped the concentration camp because of Spanish passports. We hid in Albania as Muslims fleeing a blood revenge, where my father pretended to be a medical doctor. After the war, I moved to Israel, then America where I earned a doctorate from Columbia, taught at UCLA, and founded the Adizes Institute, publishing books on managing change without conflict in 22 languages.
