Offer a proposal for a research project, a case study, a conference, or workshop. If you create a partnership with the faculty behind your idea, it can gain momentum. Our faculty must own, to some degree, every activity of the Institute or the tremendous potential of the Institute will evaporate. Similarly, I ask my faculty colleagues to solicit in their initiatives an engagement with students, alumni, corporate partners, practitioners and others at the University. Business teaches us that windows of opportunity don't remain open very long.
Excellence is a moving target.
We must accelerate the momentum of the Institute and build out its activities. We need the help of the entire Darden community in this. Let's rise to the BHAG set before us and get to work.
