EoM is a transformational business model management innovation created by the Mars, Incorporated internal think tank, Catalyst, that Jay helped the Mars Chief Economist lead for the last 14 years. In 2020, Catalyst and EoM were repositioned into an independent not-for-profit EoM Foundation that owns a for-profit EoM Solutions consultancy with no shareholders. Profit must be invested in the capability or given to the foundation.

Jay co-authored the first EoM book, Completing Capitalism: Heal Business to Heal the World (Berrett-Koehler, 2017; CITIC Press, Beijing, 2018) and is a contributing co-author of a new EoM book, Putting Purpose into Practice: The Economics of Mutuality (Oxford University Press, March 2021). His doctorate is from Oxford University, St. John’s College and Jay is a frequent international speaker.
