Sutherland completed school at a private institution and studied Classics at Christ's College, Cambridge, starting in 1984.
Sutherland joined Ogilvy &amp; Mather as a graduate trainee planner in 1988, having been inspired to join the advertising industry by British TV advertising of the 1980s. He worked briefly in account management before switching to copywriting and becoming the creative director in 2001.

He is a 1984 graduate of Choate Rosemary Hall and a 1988 alumnus of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, where he was a Morehead Scholar. Surowiecki pursued Ph.D. studies in American history on a Mellon Fellowship[citation needed] at Yale University from 1988 to 1995 but did not complete his studies and did not receive a doctoral degree. In 1995, he founded the now-defunct e-magazine Rogue and began a career in journalism.&nbsp;

He got his start on the Internet when he was hired from graduate school by Motley Fool co-founder David Gardner to be Fool's editor-in-chief of its culture site on America Online, entitled "Rogue" (1995–1996). As The Motley Fool closed that site down and focused on finance, Surowiecki made the switch over to become a finance writer, which he did over the succeeding three years, including being assigned to write Fool's column on Slate from 1997 to 2000.
In 2002, Surowiecki edited an anthology, Best Business Crime Writing of the Year, a collection of articles from different business news sources that chronicle the fall from grace of various CEOs. In 2004, he published The Wisdom of Crowds, in which he argued that in some circumstances, large groups exhibit more intelligence than smaller, more elite groups and that collective intelligence shapes business, economies, societies, and nations.&nbsp;
In an article in the Huffington Post in November 2013, Internet entrepreneur and researcher Neil Seeman drew on social media trends over the time since the publication of The Wisdom of Crowds to observe that Mr. Surowiecki wrote his observations about collective intelligence "prior to the proliferation of Facebook and Twitter and 'social filtering'; today, online, we increasingly do not reach any wisdom of any independently-minded crowds. We speak to our friends."
