SUMMARY:The Economy of Communion As Stakeholder Capitalism: Exploring Religion’s Evolving Influence on Business—Session 1
DESCRIPTION:In 2019\, the Business Roundtable redefined the purpose of a corporation to promote “an economy that serves all Americans.” In 2020\, the New York Times endorsed this redefinition of corporate purpose fifty years after Milton Friedman’s editorial and amid protests for recognizing and including all. This year the Fordham University School of Law’s Institute on Religion\, Law\, and Lawyer’s Work and Tanenbaum Center for Interreligious Understanding invite you to explore how business can accomplish these humanistic goals. The Economy of Communion (EoC) is an economic model created within the Catholic tradition positing that business exists for the benefit of all people who make up a workplace\, workforce\, and marketplace. Religion has long influenced the norms and practices in which business is conducted\, iconically with the Weberian “work ethic” informing capitalism. This conference will explore the continuing evolution of its relationship with business from a religiously diverse lens over four one-hour sessions each Tuesday in October. There will also be two Thursday sessions for reflection and networking. \nSession I: The Business Purpose Question As the Question of Purpose \nSpeakers \n\nJeffrey D. Sachs is a university professor and director of the Center for Sustainable Development at Columbia University. He is president of the United Nations Sustainable Development Solutions Network and chair of the Lancet COVID-19 Commission.\nLuigino Bruni is an economics professor at Lumsa University in Rome. He is a consultant to the Dicastery for Laity\, Family\, and Life; president of the School of Civil Economy (SEC); editor-in-chief of International Review of Economics (IREC); and director of the Civil Economy Sciences at Lumsa in Rome doctoral program.

SUMMARY:Centennial Speaker Series: Hidden in Plain Sight: How to Save Active Investment Management\, Part I: The Situation
DESCRIPTION:Diversification is a core principle of investing. Yet money managers have not applied it to their own ranks. Only around 10 percent of portfolio managers—the people most directly responsible for investing your money—are female\, and the numbers are even worse at the ownership level. What are the causes of this underrepresentation\, and what are its consequences—including for firms’ and clients’ bottom lines? \nIn Undiversified: The Big Gender Short in Investment Management\, experienced practitioners Ellen Carr and Katrina Dudley examine the lack of women in investment management and propose solutions to improve the imbalance. They explore the barriers that subtly but effectively discourage women from entering and staying in the industry at each point in the pipeline. At the entry-level\, the lack of visible role models discourages students from considering the field\, and those who do embark on an investment management career face many obstacles to retention and promotion. Carr and Dudley highlight the importance of informal knowledge about how to navigate career tracks\, without which women are left at a disadvantage in an industry that lionizes confidence. They showcase a diverse constellation of successful female portfolio managers to demystify the profession. \nDrawing on wide-ranging research; interviews with prospective\, current\, and former industry practitioners; and the authors’ own experiences\, Undiversified makes a compelling case that increasing the number of women could help transform active investment management at a time when it is under threat from passive strategies and technological innovation. \nAgenda \n5:30 p.m.: Welcome Remarks and Speaker Introductions: Donna Rapaccioli\, dean of the Gabelli School of Business \n5:35 p.m.: Fireside Chat: Ellen Carr\, Katrina Dudley\, and Dan Hanson; moderated by Laura Rittenhouse \n6:15 p.m.: Audience Q&A \n6:30 p.m.: Closing Remarks: Dean Rapaccioli \nAbout the Speakers\nEllen Carr has more than two decades of experience as a high-yield bond portfolio manager\, most recently at Weaver C. Barksdale (WCB)\, a majority-women-owned\, institutional-fixed-income\, investment-management firm based in Nashville. She specializes in the construction and management of high-yield and core-plus bond portfolios.

SUMMARY:Why Is Nonprofit Leadership So White?
DESCRIPTION:An enduring reality in New York City’s nonprofit human services sector is that the top executive positions at the majority of human services organizations are held by people who identify as white. However\, in most cases\, these agencies predominantly serve people and communities of color. \nThe visibility of leaders of color within nonprofit organizations is significant to those organizations’ client communities and staff members\, as well as aspiring social work leaders. And while people of color have steadily risen to positions of responsibility within these organizations\, CEO\, president\, and executive director titles seem to elude black\, indigenous\, and people of color (BIPOC) professionals. \nIn this panel discussion\, a diverse group of nonprofit leaders will explore the factors impacting who holds these positions and identify ways in which agencies must adapt in order to address racial disparities in leadership. Additionally\, the discussion will provide the information and next steps needed by schools of social work to inform educational curriculum\, and will prepare students to advocate and organize around diversity and representation in nonprofit leadership. \nPanelists \nCristina Contreras\, M.S.W.\, M.P.A.\, executive director\, NYC Health + Hospitals/North Central Bronx \nJess Dannhauser\, M.S.W.\, president and CEO\, Graham Windham \nDamyn Kelly\, J.D.\, Ph.D.\, president and CEO\, Lutheran Social Services of NY \nMaria Lizardo\, L.M.S.W.\, executive director\, Northern Manhattan Improvement Corporation \nCurrent Fordham Graduate School of Social Service M.S.W. students Shadequa Hampton and Jolisa Beavers will moderate.

SUMMARY:Centennial Speaker Series: Lawrence Cunningham in Conversation with Astrid Doerner on Margin of Trust: The Berkshire Business Model
DESCRIPTION:Warren Buffett and his company Berkshire Hathaway Inc. are legendary for their distinctive investing approach. Yet\, many equally unconventional but less-well-known aspects of the company’s managerial practices and organizational structure are rich with lessons for those seeking to follow in Buffett’s footsteps. Margin of Trust distills Buffett’s approach to management and corporate life and provides a definitive analysis of the tenets of the Berkshire Hathaway system\, its costs and benefits\, and how they can be adapted for other organizations. \nIn Margin of Trust\, authors Lawrence A. Cunningham and Stephanie Cuba develop a new account of how Berkshire Hathaway works\, showing that the key to its success is trust. Profiling partnership practices and business methods\, they contend that the company’s distinguishing feature is a culture in which autonomy and decentralization are core management principles. Cunningham and Cuba provide instructive examples of how this model has been successfully adapted by other companies that share faith in trust as an organizing principle. The authors also offer candid commentary on the risks of a trust-based approach and how to mitigate them. Margin of Trust features illuminating analysis of Buffett’s take on the role trust plays in business agreements\, what he looks for in great corporate boards\, and what lies ahead for the company after its iconic leader leaves the scene. \nAgenda\n12 p.m.: Welcome Remarks: Donna Rapaccioli\, dean of the Gabelli School of Business \n12:05 p.m.: Speaker Introduction: David Cowen\, president/CEO of the Museum of American Finance \n12:08 p.m.: Discussion: Astrid Doerner and Lawrence Cunningham \n12:45 p.m.: Audience Q&A \n1:00 p.m.: Closing Remarks: David Cowen \nAbout the Speakers\nCunningham is an author\, lecturer\, professor\, public company director\, and consultant on corporate governance. He is the Henry St. George Tucker III Research Professor at George Washington University and founding director of George Washington University in New York. He is the author of more than a dozen books\, including The Warren Buffett Shareholder: Stories from Inside the Berkshire Hathaway Annual Meeting; The Essays of Warren Buffett: Lessons for Corporate America\, in collaboration with Buffett; The AIG Story\, with Hank Greenberg; and Berkshire Beyond Buffett: The Enduring Value of Values. \nDoerner is a U.S. correspondent in New York for Handelsblatt\, Germany’s leading business daily. She has covered Berkshire Hathaway for many years\, including interviews with Buffett\, Charlie Munger\, and Ted Weschler\, and she is a regular attendee of the company’s shareholder meetings in Omaha\, Nebraska. Doerner also covers banks\, financial markets\, and the economy. \nThis event is co-sponsored with the Museum of American Finance and CFA Society New York.

SUMMARY:Centennial Speaker Series: Nicholas Sargen in Conversation with Consuelo Mack on JPMorgan's Fall and Revival
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a virtual lunchtime program with international economist\, global money manager\, and author Nicholas Sargen in conversation with award-winning financial journalist Consuelo Mack. They will discuss Sargen’s latest book\, JPMorgan’s Fall and Revival: How the Wave of Consolidation Changed America’s Premier Bank. \nJPMorgan’s Fall and Revival tells the previously untold story of how J.P. Morgan & Co. became a universal bank in the 1980s-1990s and events leading to it merging with Chase Manhattan Corp. in 2000. It depicts the challenges leaders confronted when the firm’s business model was disrupted by the country’s developing debt crisis and premier corporate borrowers accessing capital markets. J.P. Morgan Chase & Co. stood out in seeking to reenter the world of investment banking and securities entirely on its own\, and it was reluctant to make even targeted acquisitions that would have facilitated the build-out. \nThe book describes what happened to the institution in the larger story of U.S. banking consolidation\, and how it went from losing its independence to becoming a financial powerhouse. During this time\, all of the leading financial institutions struggled to change their business models. In the end\, no U.S. money center bank was able to become a universal bank on its own. What ensued was a growing concentration of financial assets in a handful of institutions\, which was the precursor to the 2008 financial crisis. \nAgenda\n12 p.m.: Welcome Remarks: Donna Rapaccioli\, dean of the Gabelli School of Business \n12:05 p.m.: Speaker Introduction: David Cowen\, president/CEO of the Museum of American Finance \n12:08 p.m.: Discussion: Consuelo Mack\, anchor and executive producer of Consuelo Mack WealthTrack\, and Nicholas Sargen \n12:45 p.m.: Audience Q&A \n1:00 p.m.: Closing Remarks: David Cowen \nAbout Sargen\nSargen is an international economist turned global money manager.

SUMMARY:The Future of Business Education
DESCRIPTION:The business world experiences constant technological and generational changes\, and business schools need to adapt just as quickly to prepare students for a constantly changing economic world. As we all face COVID-19\, it is clear that both the business world and business schools will emerge from this pandemic with a new normal. But what will that new normal look like? How do we prepare students for jobs that we don’t yet know will exist? The answer is preparing for what we do know while educating students to be agile\, sustainable thinkers and doers who are able to quickly adapt to changing environments and needs. \nThe Gabelli School of Business is celebrating its centennial in 2020. In recognition of this monumental occasion\, it is virtually hosting a Centennial Celebration Conference on the Future of Business Education from Fordham University’s London Centre\, a focal point for strengthening and growing academic and professional relationships in the United Kingdom and Europe\, enhancing student experiences\, growing collaborative research\, and promoting a sustainable workforce. \nThe conference will explore how the future of business education can prepare students for the post-pandemic workforce by examining the issues hiring managers face when searching for talent\, analyzing what skills are desirable for graduates to have\, and discussing innovative teaching opportunities that can prepare students for success. We will also explore the importance of creating engaging partnerships with organizations that educate future leaders.

SUMMARY:Centennial Speaker Series: Joel Greenblatt on Common Sense: The Investor's Guide to Equality\, Opportunity\, and Growth
DESCRIPTION:The United States is supposed to offer economic opportunity to everyone. It shouldn’t take a worldwide pandemic and nationwide protests to bring economic and racial inequality to the forefront of problems we desperately need to solve. But now that the opportunity is here\, what should we do? How can we create more equality\, opportunity\, and growth for everyone? Not someday\, but what can the government and the private sector do right now to disrupt a status quo that almost everyone wants to change? \nIn Common Sense\, New York Times best-selling author Joel Greenblatt offers an investor’s perspective on building an economy that truly works for everyone. With dry wit and engaging storytelling\, he makes a lively and provocative case for disruptive new approaches―some drawn from personal experience\, some from the outside looking in. \nAgenda\n12 p.m.: Welcome Remarks: Donna Rapaccioli\, dean of the Gabelli School of Business \n12:05 p.m.: Speaker Introduction: David Cowen\, president/CEO of the Museum of American Finance \n12:08 p.m.: Discussion: Joel Greenblatt \n12:45 p.m.: Audience Q&A \n1 p.m.: Closing Remarks: David Cowen \nAbout the Speaker\nJoel Greenblatt serves as Managing Principal and Co‐Chief Investment Officer of Gotham Asset Management\, the successor to Gotham Capital\, an investment firm he founded in 1985.

SUMMARY:Centennial Speaker Series: R. Edward Freeman on The Power of And: Responsible Business Without Trade-Offs
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a lunchtime webinar program with author R. Edward Freeman on his latest book\, The Power of And: Responsible Business Without Trade-Offs. \nThe idea that businesses are only concerned with their bottom line no longer holds true in the 21st century\, especially when companies around the world are giving up traditional distinctions in order to succeed. Yet\, our expectations for businesses remain under the sway of an outdated worldview that emphasizes profits for shareholders above all else. \nThe Power of And offers a new narrative about the nature of business\, revealing the focus on responsibility and ethics that unites today’s most influential ideas and companies. In the book\, R. Edward Freeman\, Kirsten E. Martin\, and Bidhan L. Parmar detail an emerging business model built on five key concepts: prioritizing purpose as well as profits; creating value for stakeholders as well as shareholders; seeing business as embedded in society as well as markets; recognizing people’s full humanity as well as their economic interests; and integrating business and ethics into a more holistic model. Drawing on examples across companies\, industries\, and countries\, they show that these values support persevering in hard times and prospering over the long term. Real-world success stories disprove the conventional wisdom that there are unavoidable trade-offs between acting ethically and succeeding financially. The Power of And presents a conceptual revolution about what it means for a business to be responsible\, providing a new story for us to tell in order to help all kinds of companies thrive. \nAgenda\n12 p.m.: Welcome Remarks: Donna Rapaccioli\, dean of the Gabelli School of Business \n12:05 p.m.: Speaker Introduction: David Cowen\, president/CEO of the Museum of American Finance \n12:08 p.m.: Discussion: Ed Freeman \n12:45 p.m.: Audience Q&A \n1:00 p.m.: Closing Remarks: David Cowen \nAbout the Speaker\nFreeman is the University Professor and Elis and Signe Olsson Professor of Business Administration at the University of Virginia Darden School of Business. He is the author of the widely influential book Strategic Management: A Stakeholder Approach (2010\, originally published in 1984)\, and has worked with executives and companies around the world. \nThis event is co-sponsored with the Museum of American Finance and CFA Society New York.
