Leaders Among Us
The Lunch & Lead speaker series gives students exposure and access to accomplished leaders from varied disciplines—entrepreneurs, financial wizards, artists, comedians, technologists, journalists, politicians and scientists. Student leaders organize these campus visits where career paths, successes and failures are analyzed and demystified. Featured speakers are often alum or parents and are always fascinating.
Lunch & Lead is funded by the Class of 2012 Leadership Speaker Series Endowment.
