Enterprise MBA Speaker Series Launched
The newly launched Wisconsin Enterprise MBA Speaker Series began in February with Jon Foley, the founder and director of UW-Madison’s Center for Sustainability and the Global Environment (SAGE) as its first guest speaker. Foley’s work examines complex global environmental systems and their interactions with human societies. The talk was given at the Fluno Center and followed by a networking reception.
Foley spoke on sustainability and what individuals and business people can do in the face of increasing demands on land, water and atmosphere. Nearly 65 Evening MBA and Executive MBA students, faculty, staff and friends of the programs attended. For more information on the topic, slides and video of a similar talk given by Foley can be found at http://mywebspace.wisc.edu/jfoley/web/EMBA.
The next Enterprise MBA Speaker Series event will be held Friday, April 18 at the Fluno Center. Details will be provided in the April issue of the Gazette.
