A WELCOME MESSAGE FROM THE 2016 CAMPUS HOST, John KootiDear Colleagues,
A warm welcome to the 2016 Annual MAACBA conference at the Fashion Institute of Technology, in New York City. We wanted to have a conference that provides participants with many opportunities for networking, exchanging ideas and best practices in business education, in addition to having a great time in New York. On Wednesday, we start the conference with AACSB International accreditation volunteer training for those who are interested in serving as mentors and peer review team members, followed by a cocktail reception. This year’s conference features five plenary sessions covering such topics as the future of retailing; demonstrating business school impact to AACSB International and other stakeholders; deans’ perspective panel discussion; AACSB International update; and business school rankings according to the experts. We have three exciting keynote sessions with David Cox of Global Business Manager at Microsoft Corporation speaking on “Technology, Disruption and the Digital Enterprise,” Danny Dworkin of Schaffer Consulting covering the topic of “Leadership May Not Be the Problem with Your Innovation Team,” and Sara Eisen, co-anchor on CNBC’s Squawk on the Street and Worldwide Exchange speaking on “Stuck in a Rut: The State of the Global and U.S. Economy.” The cocktail receptions allow you to network with other participants and speakers. This conference is allowing our participants to take advantage of what New York City has to offer with opportunities on Friday and Saturday. Thanks to the hard work of MAACBA Board and the Jay and Patty Baker School of Business and Technology at the Fashion Institute of Technology. Special thanks to Jennifer Maden, Assistant Dean of the Jay and Patty Baker School of Business and Technology who has coordinated this year’s conference. Many thanks for participating in this year’s conference, and I hope you will have a great time. |
