Speakers....

Pretty amazing the number of amazing speakers we get in these classes second year. It really make you realize the clout of CBS and how incredible our professors are.

Yesterday in Retailing was the CEO of Neiman Marcus, and the CEO of PacSun. This happens every Retailing class, CEOs, CFOs, COOs, SVPs, EVPs...corporate leaders come in every week to talk to us, little MBAs...amazing.

Then in Educational Leadership Consulting Lab today comes one of the former heads of Tishman Speyer, who now started a series of publics schools for troubled youths in NYC. The Chancellor, Joel Klein, will also be gracing the class with his presence in the future.

For Intro to Venturing, the stars of the case often come in to talk to the class from their own points of view, the challenges they faced when starting their business. They then talk about the many other entrepreneurial adventures they had taken on since the case.

For Marketing Plans, we had the Director of Trojan Condoms (hee hee), and this week, the Creative Director of Ogilvy and Mather.

Practically every class...it's just really amazing!
