Dr. Pam Henderson
Pam Henderson(born on May 12, 1962) is a published author, entrepreneur, CEO, Ph.D., professor, and speaker. She founded NewEdge, an innovation strategy firm that utilizes design methodology to create new insight for business. The firm merged with an award-winning London-based design firm named The Brewery in 2010. The two companies currently work under the NewEdge title where Henderson serves as co-CEO along with Paul Stead.
Work in education
After receiving her Ph.D. in market strategy and insight from the University of Texas in 1989, Henderson became an assistant professor at Carnegie-Mellon University. During her time there (from 1988 to 1992) she conducted global research on the impact of design on consumer response and the potential ROI of design. Her discoveries were published in the Harvard Business Review and other top journals.
In 1992, Henderson became a full professor of marketing at Washington State University. While at Washington State, she furthered her research on the integration of design in market research and business strategy. Henderson also assisted the United States National Laboratory System to identify products and markets from technology platforms. This work became the base for developing Disruptive Market Research®, a user-centered, qualitative approach to market research that identifies areas for breakthrough innovation.
Work in industry
Henderson founded NewEdge in 2003 while still at Washington State University. NewEdge, an innovation firm, builds off of Henderson’s research by utilizing design methodology to create new insight for business. Her research was published in top journals such as the Wall Street Journal and the Harvard Business Review, and featured spots on NPR. Henderson left Washington State University to grow NewEdge fulltime and since then, the company has expanded to locations in Seattle, San Francisco, Pittsburgh, and Chicago, with its main headquarters in Richland, Washington and London.
Three years after founding NewEdge, Henderson began contributing to the International Research Institute (IRI) as a subject matter expert on driving breakthrough innovation by combining technology push and market pull.
Some of Henderson’s other speaking engagements include the Association for Consumer Research, the International Research Institute, 31st Annual Meeting of the Western Decision Sciences Institute, the American Advertising Federation. Specific to innovation, Henderson spoke at Reputation Just, Danaher, Novellis, John Deere, and Proctor & Gamble.
