Who We Are

Builders of the Next Economic Infrastructure

We are a multidisciplinary group of former CEOs, academic change makers, systems thinkers, and community leaders.

Leadership

Our leadership brings together decades of experience in company-building, sustainable business, and organizational innovation.

We founded Internality because we saw a gap between the desire of leaders to do good and the systemic constraints that prevent it.

Fred Keller

Co-founder

Fred Keller has spent decades proving that business can build financial, social, and ecological capital at the same time — and that doing so is strategy, not charity. He served 17 years as Senior Visiting Lecturer at Cornell's Johnson School and as Executive-in-Residence at Michigan Ross, and chaired both the U.S. Department of Commerce Manufacturing Council under Presidents Bush and Obama and the W.K. Kellogg Foundation board. Co-founder of Talent 2025 and a trustee of the Gerald R. Ford Presidential Foundation, Fred has spent a career building the coalitions that make systems change actually happen.

Stuart Hart

Co-founder

Stuart Hart is one of the world's foremost authorities on business strategy, sustainability, and global poverty. S.C. Johnson Professor Emeritus at Cornell and Professor in Residence at Michigan's Erb Institute, he helped launch the corporate sustainability movement with his McKinsey Award-winning 1997 Harvard Business Review article "Beyond Greening," and reframed how business thinks about serving the poor with his landmark 2002 piece "The Fortune at the Bottom of the Pyramid." His book Capitalism at the Crossroads was named one of Cambridge University's 50 top sustainability books of all time. With over 50,000 Google Scholar citations and advisory work spanning GE, Unilever, and the World Economic Forum, Hart has been catalyzing systems change for decades.
