Holy flip. I am at home, poaching internet and setting up for the semester ahead, and my heart is literally pounding. Here's why:
James Skinner - Chairman & CEO, McDonald's Corp.
Robert A Lutz - Vice Chairman, General Motors Corp.
John H Tyson - Chairman & CEO, Tyson Foods
Gary C Kelly - Chairman & CEO, Southwest Airlines
D T Kapur - President, International Truck & Engine Corp.
Kenneth Trammell - Exec Vice President and CFO, Tenneco Automotive Corp.
It sounds like a 'Who's Who?' lineup of executives for companies facing paradigm shifts, and it is. Plus, they are coming to speak in MO611 during Fall A. Oh yeah, almost forgot... I'm in the class. This is the stuff of b-school legend, and a prime opportunity to hear and see and meet and greet some of the biggest players in industry. Mr. Lutz, it is a pleasure. Say, what's the deal with Pontiac? When can I buy a diesel wagon in the US? Do you have any jobs, you know, kicking around over there by the river?
A picture, as means of celebration of my good fortune.
