Babson Hosts Management, Leadership, and Governance Conference
Starting tomorrow, Babson College will host its second annual International Conference on Management, Leadership, and Governance. The two day conference will bring together academics, researchers, and practitioners from around the world to present case studies, research, and ideas. The 2014 International Conference on Management, Leadership, and Governance will focus on the way the principles and practices of entrepreneurship can be applied to all sizes and types of organizations in a variety of industries. The conference will also focus on sustainability, the idea that social and economic value creation do not need to be mutually exclusive.
The conference will be chaired by Phil Dover, an associate professor of marketing at Babson College. The keynote speakers for the conference are Daniel Isenberg, the founding director of the Babson Entrepreneurship Ecosystem Project and a professor of entrepreneurship practice at Babson Executive and Enterprise Education, and Leonard A. Schlesinger, a former president of Babson College and the Baker Foundation Professor of Business Administration at Harvard Business School. Isenberg will speak about entrepreneurial ecosystems, and Schlesinger will speak about entrepreneurial thought and action.
The conference will offer several tracks, including “Leadership and Entrepreneurship,” “Trends in Corporate Competitiveness,” “Business Level Strategy and Sustainability,” “Leading Strategy Execution,” “Leadership Behaviors Across Cultures,” “Management Issues in Cyber-Security,” and “The Regulation and Enforcement of Governance Across Multiple Jurisdictions: Exploring the Void.”
