Career
In 1980, Glaser founded Benchmark Communications, Inc., a workplace transformational consultancy firm that advises businesses on team building and leadership. Initially, the company operated as Judy Glaser & Associates. Glaser's firm was hired by Random House to write the Random House Handbook of Business Terms, a dictionary of over 3,500 industry terms. While writing the business term handbook, Glaser thought the word "benchmarking" stood out and renamed her company Benchmark Communications in 1984. Serving as chief executive officer, Glaser heads Benchmark and works as an Organizational Anthropologist, consultant, and executive coach for CEO’s and their teams. Her clients have included companies such as Clairol, Champion International Paper, Praxair, Exide, Donna Karan, Pepsi, Citibank, IBM, AT&T and Pfizer.
Additionally, Glaser is founding member of the Harvard Coaching Institute, a partnership of executive coaches and organizational consultants. She has engaged in decades of research as a social scientist, and focuses her work in the corporate industry as an organizational anthropologist. Glaser has served as an adjunct professor at Wharton University, and a visiting guest speaker schools including Harvard, Kellogg, Loyola, and the University of Chicago.
Glaser is also co-founder and chairman of the Creating WE Institute, a global research organization focused on the neuroscience of “WE” and organizational leadership. She is also a board member of the We Are Family Foundation as well as Expeditionary Learning. In 2011, she was awarded the Distinguished Alumni Award by Drexel University.
