Education and Changes In the Labor Force."[3] Gruber had started his career in finance at the General Electric Company. After his graduation at MIT he became Associate Professor of Accounting at Northeastern University, and started the consulting firm Research and Planning Institute in West Newton, Massachusetts. In 1971 at the Northeastern University's School of Business Administration, he became director of the University's Northeastern University Research Program on the Management of Science and Technology. He also held research positions at the M.I.T. Sloan School of Management and at Harvard Business School.[4] In the 1980s he moved to the MIT Sloan School of Management, where he was appointed Assistant Professor of Management, and was "economic consultant to the study contractor for the research on government patent policy sponsored by the Committee on Government Patent Policy."[5] Gruber was a member of The Institute of Management Sciences, the American Economic Association, and the Industrial Relations and Research Association. Dr. Gruber’s academic appointments include several decades as a professor at MIT, Boston College, Northeastern University, and work as a research associate at Harvard Business School. His academic research was supported by grants to MIT and Harvard Business School from NASA, U.S. Department of Energy, IBM, and the National Science Foundation. In the 1990s he was appointed as the Chief Information Officer (CIO) at the Risk Management Foundation (RMF) of the Harvard Medical Institutions, sold his consultancy firm to AppNet Systems, Inc.. and founded the Cambridge Innovation research (CIR).[6] Dr. Gruber's experience in pharmaceutical industry strategy, management, and systems includes 25 years of consulting with Pfizer Pharmaceuticals in strategic information and public affairs.[7] Dr. Gruber also managed the development of the NEW MEDICO NURSING HOME computer systems that tracked staff coverage by level of care in a large chain of nursing homes. Synnott and Gruber (1981) are credited to have coined the term Chief Information Officer (CIO),[8] and Gruber is credited to have coined the term Global Information Officer (GIO).[9] CIO Insight China in 2010 interviewed Dr. Gruber for an article to update his invention of the CIO: “The Early Stage of the CIO: How CIOs can succeed in today’s uncertain environment.” Following this interview he gave the keynote address at the 2010 Sino-America CIO Summit (Beijing) on “New roles for the CIO in a new global economic environment of complexity, discontinuity, and high uncertainty.” Selected publications
