Author Information

Les Coleman is a senior lecturer in Finance at the University of Melbourne and has published seven books and nearly 30 journal articles. He trained originally as an engineer and spent over 20 years in senior management positions in Australia and overseas. After completing a PhD in Management with a thesis entitled ""Why Managers and Companies Take Risks"" (2006), Les leveraged his industry experience and interest in decision making to conduct over 60 interviews with investment managers. This formed the basis of a trilogy that applied the scientific method to investment, but its bleak results promoted an interest in meta-research, or research into the conduct of research. Les has held part-time appointments with two investment management companies, been a trustee of three superannuation funds and a director of ten companies involved in finance, retail and distribution. He has written and spoken widely on finance and investment strategies, and for four years was a weekly columnist with The Australian newspaper.
