SUMMARY:The Future of Business Education
DESCRIPTION:The business world experiences constant technological and generational changes\, and business schools need to adapt just as quickly to prepare students for a constantly changing economic world. As we all face COVID-19\, it is clear that both the business world and business schools will emerge from this pandemic with a new normal. But what will that new normal look like? How do we prepare students for jobs that we don’t yet know will exist? The answer is preparing for what we do know while educating students to be agile\, sustainable thinkers and doers who are able to quickly adapt to changing environments and needs. \nThe Gabelli School of Business is celebrating its centennial in 2020. In recognition of this monumental occasion\, it is virtually hosting a Centennial Celebration Conference on the Future of Business Education from Fordham University’s London Centre\, a focal point for strengthening and growing academic and professional relationships in the United Kingdom and Europe\, enhancing student experiences\, growing collaborative research\, and promoting a sustainable workforce. \nThe conference will explore how the future of business education can prepare students for the post-pandemic workforce by examining the issues hiring managers face when searching for talent\, analyzing what skills are desirable for graduates to have\, and discussing innovative teaching opportunities that can prepare students for success. We will also explore the importance of creating engaging partnerships with organizations that educate future leaders.

SUMMARY:Centennial Speaker Series: Nicholas Sargen in Conversation with Consuelo Mack on JPMorgan's Fall and Revival
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a virtual lunchtime program with international economist\, global money manager\, and author Nicholas Sargen in conversation with award-winning financial journalist Consuelo Mack. They will discuss Sargen’s latest book\, JPMorgan’s Fall and Revival: How the Wave of Consolidation Changed America’s Premier Bank. \nJPMorgan’s Fall and Revival tells the previously untold story of how J.P. Morgan & Co. became a universal bank in the 1980s-1990s and events leading to it merging with Chase Manhattan Corp. in 2000. It depicts the challenges leaders confronted when the firm’s business model was disrupted by the country’s developing debt crisis and premier corporate borrowers accessing capital markets. J.P. Morgan Chase & Co. stood out in seeking to reenter the world of investment banking and securities entirely on its own\, and it was reluctant to make even targeted acquisitions that would have facilitated the build-out. \nThe book describes what happened to the institution in the larger story of U.S. banking consolidation\, and how it went from losing its independence to becoming a financial powerhouse. During this time\, all of the leading financial institutions struggled to change their business models. In the end\, no U.S. money center bank was able to become a universal bank on its own. What ensued was a growing concentration of financial assets in a handful of institutions\, which was the precursor to the 2008 financial crisis. \nAgenda\n12 p.m.: Welcome Remarks: Donna Rapaccioli\, dean of the Gabelli School of Business \n12:05 p.m.: Speaker Introduction: David Cowen\, president/CEO of the Museum of American Finance \n12:08 p.m.: Discussion: Consuelo Mack\, anchor and executive producer of Consuelo Mack WealthTrack\, and Nicholas Sargen \n12:45 p.m.: Audience Q&A \n1:00 p.m.: Closing Remarks: David Cowen \nAbout Sargen\nSargen is an international economist turned global money manager.

SUMMARY:Centennial Speaker Series: Lawrence Cunningham in Conversation with Astrid Doerner on Margin of Trust: The Berkshire Business Model
DESCRIPTION:Warren Buffett and his company Berkshire Hathaway Inc. are legendary for their distinctive investing approach. Yet\, many equally unconventional but less-well-known aspects of the company’s managerial practices and organizational structure are rich with lessons for those seeking to follow in Buffett’s footsteps. Margin of Trust distills Buffett’s approach to management and corporate life and provides a definitive analysis of the tenets of the Berkshire Hathaway system\, its costs and benefits\, and how they can be adapted for other organizations. \nIn Margin of Trust\, authors Lawrence A. Cunningham and Stephanie Cuba develop a new account of how Berkshire Hathaway works\, showing that the key to its success is trust. Profiling partnership practices and business methods\, they contend that the company’s distinguishing feature is a culture in which autonomy and decentralization are core management principles. Cunningham and Cuba provide instructive examples of how this model has been successfully adapted by other companies that share faith in trust as an organizing principle. The authors also offer candid commentary on the risks of a trust-based approach and how to mitigate them. Margin of Trust features illuminating analysis of Buffett’s take on the role trust plays in business agreements\, what he looks for in great corporate boards\, and what lies ahead for the company after its iconic leader leaves the scene. \nAgenda\n12 p.m.: Welcome Remarks: Donna Rapaccioli\, dean of the Gabelli School of Business \n12:05 p.m.: Speaker Introduction: David Cowen\, president/CEO of the Museum of American Finance \n12:08 p.m.: Discussion: Astrid Doerner and Lawrence Cunningham \n12:45 p.m.: Audience Q&A \n1:00 p.m.: Closing Remarks: David Cowen \nAbout the Speakers\nCunningham is an author\, lecturer\, professor\, public company director\, and consultant on corporate governance.
