NCSU College of Management’s Executive Lecture Series
I was lucky enough to attend quite a few of these past seminars during undergrad (featuring CEOs from Gregory Poole, Progress Energy, etc.) and I’m going to do my best to make it to this fall’s 2008 events… especially Coca-Cola CEO J. Frank Harrison’s event (one of the country’s strongest brands).
