Mark Weinberger, global chairman and CEO of EY (formerly Ernst & Young), delivered the 33rd Robert S. Hatfield Fellow in Economic Education Lecture on Thursday, Sept. 17 in Alice Statler Auditorium.
Weinberger offered his perspective on the global economy and what current trends mean for business leaders and young professionals. He also will share insights on how to build an organization nimble enough to navigate short-term volatility while achieving long-term success, how to infuse purpose into overall strategy and daily operations, and what skills are required for all people entering the workforce today. The lecture was followed by a question-and-answer session moderated by Cornell President Elizabeth Garrett.
The Robert S. Hatfield Fellowship in Economic Education is one of the highest honors Cornell bestows on individuals from the corporate sector and serves as a platform for exchange of ideas between the academic and corporate communities.
