Rolf Dobelli Biography

Rolf Dobelli studied philosophy and business administration at the University of St. Gallen, where he graduated with a doctorate on the "Deconstruction of Economic Discourse" in 1995. He then joined Swissair, serving as Chief Executive Officer of several subsidiaries. In 1999, he co-founded "getAbstract," the world’s largest publisher of compressed business knowledge.

From 2003 to 2008, Dobelli hosted a weekly show on Bloomberg Television. He continued his media presence by hosting "Seitenweise Wirtschaft" from 2001 to 2009 for the Swiss newspaper and media company, NZZ. He also writes a weekly column on cognitive errors for Switzerland’s largest Sunday newspaper and for the weekly Die ZEIT. His focus on cognitive errors and decision-making is also reflected in his bestselling book, "The Art of Thinking Clearly."

Dobelli, who sees himself as a modern Stoic, founded ZURICH.MINDS, a community of distinguished thinkers, scientists, artists, and entrepreneurs, in 2008. The community has hosted speakers such as Nassim Taleb, Gerhard Schröder, F. W. de Klerk, and Matt Ridley. In March 2022, media group Axel Springer took over the majority in ZURICH.MINDS to extend its portfolio of community business. He resigned from getAbstract in 2011 to focus more on writing and delivering talks on rational decision making, business success, and organizational psychology.
