HBS Alumni and Guests are invited to a special evening at the theater! This event is also open to Seattle Business School Alliance member schools. We will enjoy wine, hors d'oeuvres and good company before the show, as Seattle Rep's Artistic Director shares with us the process for putting together a season, the highs and lows of introducing new plays to the stage, and general insights on producing and directing live theater. Q&A will follow.
After hearing David's insights, we will then be entertained by a lively and comic production of RESTORATION COMEDY, making its debut at the Rep.
ABOUT THE PLAY Their names are Loveless, Lord Foppington, Sir Novelty Fashion, Worthy, Hoyden—and they are just what you’d expect them to be. Playing games with each others loves, lives, and livelihoods is their one delightfully wicked occupation. Playwright Amy Freed (The Beard of Avon) has stayed true to late-17th-century style (inspired by Vanbrugh’s The Relapse and Cibber’s Love’s Last Shift) to create the naughty romp that is Restoration Comedy—a perfect antidote to traditional holiday fare!
WHY YOU SHOULD SEE THIS PLAY The Restoration was marked by lavish style: opulence and decadence were the order of the day. Restoration Comedy will embody this gorgeous period of dress and style with costumes designed by Anna Oliver (The Beard of Avon, The Constant Wife). With Hugh Landwehr as scenic designer (Anna in the Tropics, A Midsummer Night's Dream) and lighting design by Peter Maradudin (Anna in the Tropics, Beauty of the Father), this production promises a sumptuous visual feast. Restoration Comedy will also star favorite Seattle Rep actors Laurence Ballard, Suzanne Bouchard, Bhama Roget, and others.
ABOUT DAVID ESBJORNSON David Esbjornson is an award-winning director and producer who has worked throughout the United States in regional theatres and on Broadway, and has established strong and productive relationships with some of the profession's top playwrights, actors, and companies. For seven years (1992-1999) he was artistic director of New York's Classic Stage Company, and since leaving that post he has become one of country's most sought after freelance directors.
With a list of production credits steeped in the classics from those years at CSC and as a guest director in such leading regional theatres as the Guthrie Theater, David has also established himself as an interpreter of choice for playwrights such as Tony Kushner, Edward Albee, and Arthur Miller. "If there is a hallmark of Esbjornson's work," wrote the Village Voice, "...it's been (his) collaboration with adventuresome writers."
Among the world premieres to David's credit are the first production of Tony Kushner's Angels in America: Millennium Approaches, and the first staged presentation of Perestroika, both at the Eureka Theatre in San Francisco, which | | Directions: DIRECTIONS:From I-5 North or SouthTake exit #167 and follow the directional signs toward Seattle Center.At the first traffic light, turn right onto Fairview.At the next light, turn left onto Broad Street.Turn right onto 5th Avenue.Turn left on to Roy Street (one way street).Roy Street is one block away from Mercer Street.

London 2012 Event sponsored by Deutsche Bank
Location: University of Chicago GSB London Campus
Sponsored by the Tepper School of Business United Kingdom Alumni Chapter
Speaker: Steve NorrisThe Olympic Games are supposed to bring a bright future for London East End’s Lea Valley. Mayor Ken Livingstone has stated that the games “will massively speed up regeneration.” Unfortunately, reversals of planning policies in the Olympics’ Lea Valley as well as the recent ‘surprise’ announcement that the London transport commissioner Bob Kiley will be stepping down in January have led to concerns that the Mayor’s London Plan may be in a state of disarray.
Our distinguished guest speaker Steve Norris, Chairman of Jarvis plc and former Conservative candidate for London Mayor in 2000 and former Under Secretary of State for Transport as well as a former MP, will shed more light on the Mayor’s London Development Agency’s (LDA) strategy and execution (or lack thereof thus far) as well as address key issues that need to be clarified ranging from transportation (including congestion zoning plans) to security (the Mayor is in control of the Police and Fire Brigade’s budgets).
Needless to say, Steve Norris is an extremely sought after speaker these days! We are most fortunate to count on his generous offer to speak to alumni and friends of alumni. This is a not to be missed opportunity!
The reason we have put together this event is out of concern that current policies are in place to suit a planning and political expedient versus a responsible way of conducting regeneration of the Lea Valley for the long term. We would very much hope that the success of the Barcelona Port and Olympic Village may be replicated in London’s Lea Valley. At the end of the day it is our tax money is at work!
Join us for a most entertaining and educational experience!
Complimentary food and beverages will be served after the presentation. RSVP is limited. Dress code is smart/ business attire.
The event is sponsored by Deutsche Bank and organised by The University of Chicago UK Alumni Association.
The RSVPs should go to Penka.Bergmann@ChicagoGSB.edu If your name is not on the list you will not be admitted. | | Directions: University of Chicago GSB London Campus

She is an expert in organizational behavior and has teaching and research interests in the psychological contracts in organizations and changing employment relations.

Her research has also examines human resource management and strategy, organizational culture and performance, and multilevel research methodologies.
Rousseau has published over 100 articles and six books, including her most recent, "I-Deals: Idiosyncratic Deals Employess Bargain for Themselves." Her current working paper, Organizational Change That Produces Results: The Linkage Approach, addresses how companies can get the most out of their organizational change efforts.

Columbia: Double-Bottom Line Venture Capital
Location: Law Offices of Alston and Bird
Sponsored by the Tepper School of Business New York City Alumni Chapter Over the past few decades, social investing has branched into a variety of facets; yet it remains rooted in its double-bottom line platform. From equity investments in entrepreneurial companies that address environmental concerns to lending to micro enterprises, social investing has a distinct appeal because of its strong potential impact on society. With the use of an ever-increasing number of new business models and tools being developed, portfolio companies pursue profit goals alongside socially responsible goals in a dual focus.
Join us for a panel discussion of Double-Bottom Line Venture Capital with Kerwin Tesdell, Executive Director of The Community Development Venture Capital Alliance (CDVCA). With more than 100 members, this national trade association promotes the use of the tools such as near-equityinvesting to create jobs, entrepreneurial capacity and wealth to advance the livelihoods of low-income people and the economies of distressed communities. The SJF Ventures, co-founded by Richard Defieux '84 will be represented by its other cofounder, David Kirkpatrick who will discuss the funds successes in investing in green techcompanies. Smith Barney's Bruce Kahn, a National Science Foundation Fellow whos done work in Ecological Economics will discuss Smith Barneys approach to socially responsible investing. Along with Carrie Van Syckel of Goldman Sachs Urban Investment Group which invests in minority and urban ventures, the speakers will provide information about the most recent developments and share both the upside and the pitfalls of this important sector of venture investing.

Professor Jeffrey Pfeffer - Hard Facts, Dangerous Half Truths, and Total Nonsense: Profiting from Evidence-Based Management
Location: The Sloane Club, Lower Sloane Street Chelsea
Sponsored by the Tepper School of Business United Kingdom Alumni Chapter Invitation from Stanford GSB:
The GSB’s ever popular Professor Jeff Pfeffer is visiting London and has kindly offered to speak to our club again about his new book with Bob Sutton.
Many organizations decide what to do based on the past experience of senior leaders, ideology and belief, and by looking at what other companies are doing. None of these represent effective ways of making decisions. Meanwhile, companies have ignored massive amounts of evidence that speak to questions such as the effectiveness of stock options and incentive compensation, whether “winning the war for talent” is possible or even desirable, the effects of setting up internal competitive dynamics, and many other questions that are relevant to understanding management strategies and their effects. The fact that knowledge of “what works” is so infrequently used provides an opportunity for information arbitrage in the management of companies that is similar to arbitrage opportunities in the financial markets, except the returns are both larger and less likely to be immediately imitated away. Companies need to use more “evidence-based management” and a thought process that uncovers hidden assumptions and confronts them with what leaders know to be true.
Jeff is the Thomas D. Dee II Professor of Organizational Behaviour in the GSB where he has taught since 1979. He is the author or co-author of ten books and has also published more than 100 articles and book chapters. Jeff has served on the faculties of the business schools at the University of Illinois and the University of California at Berkeley. He currently serves on the board of directors of four companies and also writes a monthly column for Business 2.0 entitled “The Human Factor.” Dr. Pfeffer is a member and Fellow of the Academy of Management and a member of the Industrial Relations Research Association. He has won the Richard D. Irwin award for Scholarly Contributions to Management as well as several awards for books and articles. He received his B.S. in Administration and Management Science and his M.S. in Industrial Administration from Carnegie-Mellon University. He obtained his Ph.D. in Business Administration from the Stanford GSB.

He is an author of the new book, The Design of Things to Come: How Ordinary People Create Extraordinary Products, (co-authored with Jonathan Cagan and Craig M. Vogel).

The most important issues are how to produce innovation and how to repeatedly generate innovative products.

They involve procedures that can be learned, used, and adopted by anyone. Anyone, at least, who is willing to intelligently take the uncertainty head on, to risk and endure failure in the disciplined quest for a brilliant product or service.

Alumni Reception with Prof. Frank Demmler
Location: Vivo
Sponsored by the Tepper School of Business Cleveland,Entrepreneurship Network Alumni Chapter
Speaker: Frank Demmler, Associate Teaching Professor of Entrepreneurship at the Tepper School of Business and David Morgenthaler, founding partner of the venture capital firm Morgenthaler LLP You are invited to a special alumni reception and presentation on Entrepreneurship and Venture Capital by Frank Demmler, Associate Teaching Professor of Entrepreneurship at the Tepper School of Business on Thursday, August 25, 2005 from 6:00-9:00 p.m. in the Elevator Room at the Vivo Restaurant in The Arcade at 347 Euclid Avenue in Cleveland's Gateway District. The topic will be: The Perfect Storm - The Challenge of Raising Venture Capital for Today's Entrepreneurs.
Professor Demmler brings over 35 years of business experience, ranging from an executive management position with a major operating unit of a Fortune 200 corporation to participation in embryonic entrepreneurial enterprises, his family's entrepreneurial roots in Pittsburgh dating back to 1835 . He has served as an Associate Teaching Professor of Entrepreneurship at the Tepper School of Business at Carnegie Mellon since August 2003, with which he had been associated as an adjunct professor since 1987. He has also taught various aspects of management at the Harvard Business School, the UCLA Graduate School of Management and Robert Morris College.
From 1999 until 2003, Professor Demmler served as president & CEO of Future Fund Inc., a seed stage venture capital fund. Prior to that, he was a general partner of the Pittsburgh Seed Fund (PSF), a $10 million venture capital fund founded in 1985 that specialized in early-stage, high potential businesses in the southwestern Pennsylvania region of which Automated Healthcare (now McKesson Automation) is the most prominent portfolio company. He was also a co-founder of the Western Pennsylvania Adventure Capital Fund in 1996 and investment advisor to it through 1998.
In parallel with much of the preceding, for 15 years he was VP of Venture Development at The Enterprise Corporation of Pittsburgh, a consulting firm that worked with over 2,000 clients who, in turn, raised over $1 billion of capital and created over 10,000 jobs. The Enterprise Corporation was merged with the Ben Franklin Technology Center of SW PA in December 1998 to create InnovationWorks.
David Morgenthaler is the founding partner of venture capital firm Morgenthaler LLP and member of Carnegie Mellon's Donald H. Jones Center for Entrepreneurship advisory council. Morgenthaler received BS and MS degrees in mechanical engineering from Massachusetts Institute of Technology. His wife, Lindsay Jordan Morgenthaler (BFA '45), is a Carnegie Mellon emeritus life trustee.
The Morgenthaler firm, founded in 1968, is a premier venture capital and buyout enterprise that invests in growth-stage technology companies and focuses on buyouts of businesses in communications, services, and health care. The Cleveland-based Morgenthaler had $2 billion under management.
David Morgenthaler began his career in 1945 as a sales manager for the Ervite Corporation and then moved on to a mechanical engineering position with the Blaw-Knox Company. In 1950, Morgenthaler became the vice president and director of sales at Des Moine's Delavan Manufacturing Company. His final position prior to establishing his venture capital firm was president of Foseco, Inc., a venture-backed maker of specialty chemicals in Cleveland.
Throughout his career Morgenthaler has served as a trustee or committee member of the National Venture Capital Association, the Cleveland Clinic Foundation, the Sloan School of MIT, the Weatherhead School of Business at Case Western Reserve University, and other non-profit organizations. All Carnegie Mellon alumni and their guest are welcome to attend. Guests invited through affliations with Tepper Alumni should RSVP online.

Prior to joining the Mariners organization, Bill served as the head of farm team operations for the LA Dodgers and from 1994-99 was the General Manager of the Anaheim Angels. After joining the Mariners, Bill made the following statement: "The Mariners' franchise is one of the elite franchises in all of baseball. Seattle has an outstanding ballpark, great fans, an excellent baseball operations staff, an ownership group committed to winning and a nucleus of talent on the Major League roster that has won nearly 400 games over the past four seasons."
Bill literally grew up in baseball. His father, Buzzie Bavasi, was the General Manager of the Brooklyn Dodgers and moved with the team as they became the LA Dodgers in 1958, around the time that Bill was born. Buzzie is well known for signing many of the legendary Dodgers, Sandy Koufax among them. Bill got his first job in baseball in 1980 with the Angels in baseball administration. Bill’s brother, Peter, served as GM of the Toronto Blue Jays.

VOIP: Entrepreneurial Vikings at the Gates of Telecoms
Location: Goldman Sachs, River Court Auditorium, 120 Fleet Street
Sponsored by the Tepper School of Business United Kingdom Alumni Chapter
Speaker: Niklas Zennstrvm, CEO and founder of SkypeDear all,
Please find below the invitation to a very interesting event.
Best regards, Isabelle
Registration: open now at www.v-network.org
Abstract: Voice services are still the most profitable service provided by telecoms. Several years ago, Voice-over-IP (VOIP) technology emerged as a major threat to established telecom players. However, it took a revolution in quality and usability to bring VOIP to the masses. Skype offers a disruptive innovation. It allows users free, high-quality calls to other Skype users (peer-to-peer principle) whether they use PCs, PDAs or VOIP-enabled handsets. In addition, users can receive inbound calls from ordinary telephones or mobile phones ("Skype in"), voice mail and for a small fee they can call traditional phone or mobile numbers using "Skype Out", thus creating revenues for Skype and giving the users seamless connectivity. The company's user base has grown rapidly with over 90 million downloads and 33 million users since its launch in late 2003. Adding 160,000 new users a day Skype is shaking the foundations of traditional telecom companies. Like the Apple iPod, Skype has attracted a large community of developers and entrepreneurs who are building add-on services for this explosively growing platform.
Try out Skype by downloading your personal copy for free at www.skype.com
About the speaker: Niklas Zennstrvm is a serial entrepreneur. Following an early career at Tele2, he went on to co-founded with Janus Friis everyday.com, KaZaA, Joltid, Altnet and Skype. Most of his companies, including Skype, have been based on peer-to-peer principles and Niklas continues to search for new disruptive innovations. Niklas Zennstrvm is a Swedish citizen of 38 years and has a dual degree in business and MSC Engineering Physics, computer science from Uppsala University in Sweden. He spent his final year at the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor.
About Vnet: We are a network for entrepreneurs and were formed as a partnership between the following organizations:
Vnet is supported by the Cambridge-MIT Institute (CMI), a pioneering partnership between the University of Cambridge in the UK, and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) in the United States.

SBSA Event, The Harvard Business School Club of Puget Sound presents - PATH: A Catalyst for Global Health
Location: PATH
Sponsored by the Tepper School of Business Seattle Alumni Chapter
Speaker: Dr. Christopher J. Elias Wednesday, April 20th, 2005
7:30-8:00am Social Breakfast Gathering 8:00-8:50am Presentation 8:50-9:30am Prototype-development shop tour(s) -optional
Every minute of each day, three children die in sub-Saharan Africa from malaria. Unfortunately, diseases like malaria that are endemic to developing countries command few research dollars because they are not problems in industrialized nations and there is little potential for private industry to profit from research and development.
But what if someone developed a model to harness the power of innovation and industry together, to solve such problems as this?
Join us Wednesday, April 20, at 7:30 am for a breakfast meeting at one of the world’s leading global health organizations—right here in Seattle. We will explore with Dr. Christopher J. Elias, President of PATH, how public/private partnerships can make lifesaving technologies available and sustainable in developing nations.
The program will be followed by an optional tour of PATH’s prototype-development shop from 9:00 to 9:30 a.m. Please indicate your interest in attending the shop tour by emailing our Club Office at contactus@hbsps.com or call (206) 624-4185 with your name and the date you registered on the website for this event.

Kellogg: Managing Education as a Business
Location: JPMorgan Chase
Sponsored by the Tepper School of Business New York City Alumni Chapter
Speaker: City Councilwoman Eva MoskowitzManaging Education as a Business and Education Reform With City Councilwoman Eva Moskowitz, Chairperson of the Education Committee of the New York City Council
For more information, and to register, please go to: http://kelloggalumni.northwestern.edu/Events/EventView.asp?eventid=1065
Registration and Photo ID Required. If signing up, please use the Kellogg alum pricing.
Program 7:00 Cocktails and Networking 7:30 Presentation and Q&A 8:30 Cocktails and Networking
Eva Moskowitz is a former teacher who has represented Manhattan's 4th District in the New York City Council since November of 1999. Her constituents re-elected Eva last year by a margin of two to one and, in January of 2002, her colleagues in the City Council voted unanimously to make Eva the Chairperson of the Education Committee.
As an elected official with many years of experience in the city's school system, Eva's top public policy priority is education. She has taken tough, independent stands on issues such as support for Mayoral control, opposition to principal tenure, and championing competition within the public school system. Eva has distinguished herself as one of the most forceful and effective advocates for Charter Schools in New York City. During her first months in office, Eva worked closely with the Giuliani administration to create the Charter School Start-Up Fund which was the first fund established by a municipality in the United States to finance capital construction. She has led dozens of capital improvement campaigns, bringing in millions of dollars in City funds for new computers, science labs, and other sorely needed improvements at every public school in her district.
Eva was the leading force behind the creation of the first new high school on the Eastside in 30 years. This victory for high academic standards and for her middle-class constituents, however, did not come easily. It was only after a three-year battle with the Board of Education that the school will finally open in the fall of 2003 at its Eastside location.
As Chairperson of the Education Committee, Eva Moskowitz conducts a rigorous and extensive hearing schedule. This school year alone the Committee will hold hearings on reading instruction, parental choice, teacher retention and recruitment, custodian’s union contract, charter schools, and mathematics instruction. The Committee has also issued several in-depth reports and investigations including “Reading in New York City Schools: 10 Conclusions and Corresponding Recommendations,” and “New York City Public Schools to Parents: Don’t Leave a Message.” Eva Moskowitz is the author of the School Construction Accountability Act, a reporting bill designed to hold the school construction authority accountable for any delays and budget overruns, and was passed by the full Council on January 29, 2003.
In addition to education, Eva has also worked extensively in other areas affecting children and families. In 2001, she led the City Council's campaign to provide health insurance to every eligible child in the City of New York. By December 2002, Eva's efforts had helped the city enroll over 200,000 children in the Child Health Plus Program, the State's Public Health Insurance Program. Eva has also worked to improve the city's day care offerings for working mothers, securing $25 million for the first ever capital expenditure to build day care facilities. Eva is the author of the City Council's Family Leave Policy, which provides paid leave for new parents.
During her first year in public office Eva made a major contribution to the public health when she proposed a plan to equip every public building in New York City with automatic external defibrillators. This plan, which was adopted in 2001, will help save the lives that would otherwise have been lost to cardiac arrest. More recently, Eva authored the Health Care Mobil | Directions:

Graduates Club: Blue Ocean Strategy
Location: Penn Club of New York
Sponsored by the Tepper School of Business New York City Alumni Chapter "Blue Ocean Strategy: How to Create Uncontested Market Space and Make The Competition Irrelevant" W. Chan Kim, Professor of Strategy and International Management, INSEAD
http://www.thegraduatesclub.com/events-410.shtml
The Graduates Club cordially invites you to join us for a morning of networking and discussion featuring a a presentation by W. Chan Kim, Professor of Strategy and International Management at INSEAD. In his presentation, Blue Ocean Strategy: How to Create Uncontested Market Space and Make The Competition Irrelevant, Dr. Kim will challenge everything you thought you knew about the requirements for strategic success. Since the dawn of the industrial age, companies have engaged in head-to-head competition in search of sustained, profitable growth. They have fought for competitive advantage, battled over market share, and struggled for differentiation. Yet these hallmarks of competitive strategy are not the way to create profitable growth in the future. Dr. Kim will argue that cutthroat competition results in nothing but a bloody red ocean of rivals fighting over a shrinking profit pool. Based on a study of 150 strategic moves spanning more than a hundred years and thirty industries, he explains that lasting success comes not from battling competitors, but from creating "blue oceans": untapped new market spaces ripe for growth. Such strategic moves- called "value innovation"- create powerful leaps in value that often render rivals obsolete for more than a decade. Dr. Kim will explore a systematic approach to making the competition irrelevant and outline principles and tools any company can use to create and capture blue oceans - and chart a bold new path to winning the future.
W. Chan Kim is the Boston Consulting Group Bruce D. Henderson Chair Professor of Strategy and International Management at INSEAD. He is a contributor to The Financial Times, The Wall Street Journal, The Wall Street Journal Europe, The Asian Wall Street Journal, The New York Times, The International Herald Tribune, World Link, South China Morning Post, and others.
There is no-charge to attend this event. The presentation begins at 8:45am.

Sponsored by the Tepper School of Business New York City Alumni Chapter Organized for Success: Top CEOs Reveal the Organizing Principles That Helped Them Reach the Top

Here to share the results of her research on the time-management practices of leading CEOs like Leonard Lauder, LA Police Chief, and our former Police Commissioner, Bill Bratton, and Luke Corbett, CEO of Kerr-McGee is leading time-management expert Stephanie Winston, who was quoted in Fortune as observing the astonishing fact is that a CEO’s days are taken up with little but interruptions.

Among the many other lessons Winston brings to the reader are insights on how to:
• conquer e-mail and paperwork gridlock • run and participate in meetings more effectively • develop your own best productivity and time management style • create techniques to find valuable private time in the middle of a hectic day • use follow-up strategies that ensure you respond to others consistently and complete all necessary tasks
