YOUR IMPACT QUESTROM SCHOOL OF BUSINESS 2019



A MESSAGE FROM THE DEAN What a year! First: thank you for choosing to support Questrom in the 2019 fiscal year. It is my privilege to serve as dean and to have met many of you, all around the world. As you’ll see in these pages, your support underpins everything we do here at Questrom: teaching, learning, research, global outreach, preparing students for careers, and more. We must respond to the fast-changing practices and needs of the business world; support from you and others helps us be more innovative, flexible, and ambitious. As you might have heard, we’ll begin offering an online MBA in 2020 in partnership with edX; this is just one of many new endeavors you’ll be hearing about in the near future.

YOUR IMPACT 2019 1


Your impact: STUDENT ACCESS AND ACHIEVEMENT In 2018–19, Questrom was home to nearly 3,700 students, each discovering how to create value for the world in their own unique way. This group is global and cosmopolitan (more than 30 percent are international, hailing from about 80 countries). The quality of their academic credentials improves each year. And hundreds receive scholarships to help make their BU education accessible. Thanks to strong donor support, we are able to offer both need- and merit-based financial aid, which helps ensure that our undergraduate and graduate students are diverse and helps Questrom compete with peer schools for the best applicants. Scholarships form the cornerstone of a strong academic program and can be life-changing for the individuals receiving them. Here, several students talk about how their donorfunded financial aid has helped position them for success, at Questrom and beyond.

NARI (NARINE) MALKHASYAN (QUESTROM’20) SOCIAL IMPACT MASTER OF BUSINESS ADMINISTRATION (MBA) RECIPIENT, ARTEMIS TOPJIAN NAZARIAN SCHOLARSHIP I am originally from Armenia, raised in Yerevan in the post-Soviet years, where electricity and running water were rare luxuries. I found myself dreaming of big adventures and of making an impact. My parents had to borrow money for me to take the SAT. I did well enough to find myself in the US, studying chemical engineering. This scholarship has allowed me to be enrolled full-time, focusing on academics, numerous extracurricular activities, and giving back to the community. All the while, I have still been able to support my family back in Armenia. The generosity of the scholarship means more to me than its financial value. To me, it is an investment in me and my ability to achieve my goals and create a change that will better the world.

2 QUESTROM SCHOOL OF BUSINESS

Artemis Nazarian (Questrom’53) established this scholarship in 2003 in honor of her 50th reunion. It is awarded to students based on financial need, with a preference for students of Armenian descent.


ZACH PRESCOTT (QUESTROM’19) BUSINESS ADMINISTRATION AND MANAGEMENT WITH CONCENTRATIONS IN ACCOUNTING AND ORGANIZATIONAL BEHAVIOR RECIPIENT, THOMAS H. CHAMBERLAIN SCHOLARSHIP Boston University and Questrom have provided me with so much opportunity, and it is because of financial aid that I am able to reach my goals. This year I represented BU in track and field on the national level and even set a strange world record for juggling while running a mile. Additionally, I have had the honor of receiving a Scarlet Key Award for my leadership on campus.

The late Thomas H. Chamberlain (Questrom’60), the father of two BU students, established this scholarship in 1995 to support students with financial need.

Thank you for this incredible opportunity. Your donation empowers students like me to reach and work for opportunities that would be otherwise unattainable.

THOMAS TRAYLOR (QUESTROM’19,’19) MASTER OF BUSINESS ADMINISTRATION AND MASTER IN DIGITAL INNOVATION RECIPIENT, CHARLES L. MOORE SCHOLARSHIP The scholarship has given me the opportunity to further my education while starting a family. This year I worked as the “teaming teaching assistant,” a peer-appointed role facilitating leadership development and teamwork skills for first-year MBA students. Transitioning careers from engineering into healthcare was always my goal, and I am very happy to have made that leap with support from this scholarship.

Charles L. Moore (Questrom’75) is dedicated to recruiting and retaining talented graduate students who he envisions will become future philanthropists. Awarded since 2006, the scholarships in his name are given based on merit to one or more students enrolled in the Questrom MBA program.

ALEXA COLÓN (QUESTROM’19) BUSINESS ADMINISTRATION AND MANAGEMENT WITH CONCENTRATIONS IN FINANCE AND STRATEGY AND INNOVATION RECIPIENT, MULLER FAMILY SCHOLARSHIP I came to BU for a new beginning, and I saw it as an opportunity that would set my life on a path for a better future. As a first-generation college student, I knew I was setting a precedent for my younger sister, to show her that college is an option for families like ours. Since coming to BU, I have had the opportunity to study abroad in London, I have been able to find a passion in my coursework at Questrom, and I have dedicated myself to giving others the same warm Terrier welcome I received, serving as an admissions ambassador tour guide and active member of the Boston University Admissions Student Diversity Board.

Eric (Questrom’94) and Lydia (Wheelock’94) Muller established this scholarship in 2016 to support Questrom students with need, with a preference for students from New Jersey, Kansas, or the greater Kansas metropolitan area.

Attending Boston University has been the greatest accomplishment I have achieved thus far. BU has opened doors to many opportunities, and I look forward to what comes next.

YOUR IMPACT 2019 3


Your impact: QUESTROM FACULTY This year, Questrom celebrated the arrival of 12 new faculty members—and awarded its highest faculty honor, an endowed chair, to a small, elite group of research faculty. Endowed chairs, both term and permanent faculty positions often created by generous donors, are the best ways to recruit and retain superstar scholars and talented teachers and recognize their outstanding service to the School. Here are Questrom’s newest chairholders.

Siobhán O’Mahony

Mark Williams (Questrom’93)

Feld Family Professor in Innovation and Entrepreneurship

James E. Freeman Lecturer in Management

The Feld Family Professorship in Innovation and Entrepreneurship is endowed through a generous gift from Kenneth J. Feld (Questrom’70, Parent COM’02), Chairman of the BU Board of Trustees, Chair of the Campaign for Boston University, and Chairman and CEO of Feld Entertainment. It is designated for a distinguished senior faculty member who is a leader in teaching and research in innovation, entrepreneurship, and enterprise creation.

The James E. Freeman Lecturer in Management is endowed through a generous gift from Ken and Janice Freeman, and is specifically reserved for lecturers—Questrom’s master teachers, many of whom have extensive professional experience they bring to bear in the classroom. This chair— the first reserved for lecturer faculty—acknowledges exemplary teaching, service, and leadership. Dean Emeritus Ken Freeman believes deeply in the great value of lecturers, having served as dean for eight years before stepping down in 2018. Although Ken’s father, James E. Freeman, had only 10 years of formal schooling due to family hardships created by the Great Depression, Ken describes him as a role model for the importance of continuous learning and a strong advocate for the value of obtaining a college education.

The first to hold this chair, Siobhán O’Mahony is a professor of strategy and innovation. Her research explores how technical and creative projects organize for innovation. She has examined how high-technology contractors, opensource programmers, artists, music producers, internet startups, and product development teams coordinate their efforts in projects, teams, and communities. A former consultant with Price Waterhouse LLP and Electronic Data Systems, she has consulted to organizations such as IDEO, Global Business Network, Novell, Capgemini, ProQuest, Microsoft, and the European Union. O’Mahony headed the university task force that laid the groundwork for the creation of Innovate@BU, a broad initiative to foster innovation campuswide; as Feld Family Professor she is now Innovate’s faculty director.

4 QUESTROM SCHOOL OF BUSINESS

The inaugural Freeman Lecturer, Mark Williams, is a risk management practitioner, academic, and financial author who worked before Questrom as a senior trading floor executive; he also held positions at the Federal Reserve Banks of San Francisco and Boston. He frequently appears in the national media and provided impactful congressional testimony on the risks of cryptocurrencies in 2014. His prolific writings include 2010’s Uncontrolled Risk, about Lehman Brothers; equally well known is his financial fraud work on the MBTA, its pension risk, and detailed fix-it plan. He is a cofounder of FitMoney, a nonprofit dedicated to improving financial literacy in K-12 schools. Williams received BU’s Beckwith Prize for Excellence in Teaching in 2008.


SCHOOL APPOINTS TWO MORE QUESTROM PROFESSORS IN MANAGEMENT The ripple effects of the 2015 $50 million gift from Allen (Questrom’64, Hon.’15) and Kelli (Hon.’15) Questrom will last for generations, but in 2018–19 the school saw some major near-term benefits. The Questroms’ gift created 10 new faculty chairs, two of which were filled this year, by professors Steven Kou and Marshall Van Alstyne.

Steven Kou Questrom Professor in Management Kou, a professor of finance and the creator of the acclaimed, awardwinning Kou model for options pricing, joined Questrom last year from the National University of Singapore (he also taught as a professor at Columbia University, University of Michigan, and Rutgers University). His many honors include the prestigious Erlang Prize from the INFORMS Applied Probability Society, given to researchers under 35 who make outstanding contributions to applied probability. Kou was also named an Institute of Mathematical Statistics (IMS) Fellow in 2018.

He will help Questrom strengthen its collaborations with its offerings in quantitative finance—especially fintech, an area in which the school is poised to emerge as a global leader.

Marshall Van Alstyne Questrom Professor in Management As a professor, adviser to leading executives, frequent keynote speaker, and former entrepreneur, Professor Van Alstyne has undoubtedly created value—not only for Questrom but also for the entire field of information systems. Van Alstyne, professor and chair of Information Systems, joined Questrom in 2004 and has spent his career creating and sharing new knowledge about the economics of two-sided networks, platform markets (think Uber and Airbnb), valuing information, equity and growth effects of information sharing, and integration effects of access to technology. He has made substantial contributions to understanding the economics of information, with pioneering research in the economic response to unsolicited communication, IT productivity, and two-sided networks. Among his many noteworthy publications is his co-authored book Platform Revolution: How Networked Markets Are Transforming the Economy and “Strategies for Two-Sided Markets,” an article recently named one of the top 50 of all time by Harvard Business Review.

GENE HILL INVESTS IN QUESTROM’S HEALTH SECTOR MANAGEMENT PROGRAM Donors who wish to help further strengthen teaching and research at Questrom can support individuals, through endowed chairs; they can also support programs, as Gene Hill (Questrom’80) has for a number of years. Hill’s gifts to Questrom’s Health Sector Management program will help keep the program innovative by providing support for faculty salaries, research, travel, conferences, publications, capital equipment, and student financial aid. Headed by Faculty Director Ned Rimer, Questrom’s Health Sector Management program is, according to several rankings, the best in the world. “Having donor support like this helps us cover the basic costs of our work, which means we’re freer to invest in new initiatives and exciting opportunities,” Rimer says. With 20 years of operating experience in the US healthcare services market and almost two decades in the venture capital industry, Hill knows healthcare excellence. “Having the support of someone as knowledgeable as Gene is a great honor,” Rimer adds.

Your impact: CAREER READINESS THE SOCIAL IMPACT INTERNSHIP FUND: DOING GOOD WHILE DOING BUSINESS Like other business schools, Questrom is responding to demand among working professionals for more meaningful, missiondriven work. Unlike other business schools,
it has decades of experience to build on: the school launched its Social Impact MBA program (then called the Public & Nonprofit MBA)
in 1973. In recent years Questrom has strategically supported this area and risen above the pack. In the Financial Times’s recently published ranking of global graduate business programs, Questrom ranked 10th overall and 4th among US schools in the category of Corporate Social Responsibility. And in data collected by Business Week,

33 percent of Questrom students reported that one reason they chose the school is “to acquire the tools I need to have a positive impact on society”—far exceeding the average of 19 percent. A key component of a social impact education is an internship with a nonprofit. Some Questrom students, however, are forced to decide between low-paying or unpaid internships—ones that would provide valuable career experience—and part-time jobs that provide income but not necessarily professional development. The Questrom Social Impact Internship Fund has been awarding stipends to students in nonprofit internships since 2012, and has already enabled dozens of students to drive significant positive change across the globe. Donor support has helped further build this track record of success.

“The quality of the students is outstanding. The program draws terrific students— many of whom thought they wouldn’t get an MBA—and they create a vibrant and supportive community here.” DAVID STOLOW, FACULTY DIRECTOR OF THE SOCIAL IMPACT MBA PROGRAM

THE INTERNSHIP FUND: AN OVERVIEW With the assistance from the fund, MBA students have created sustainable change in their internship organizations. Their efforts include streamlining operations to limit costs and increase revenue, developing outreach programs to change behaviors, analyzing data to standardize and improve care, and discovering new revenue sources. From 2012–2018, top areas included:

Public health (21%) Social justice (15%) Global health (12%) Economic development (12%) Other nonprofits included those working in food sustainability, conservation, arts and culture, education, and green energy.

“As future leaders and forever citizens of the world, we should all be excited about and supportive of efforts to make this world a better place, and the Social Impact Internship Fund is one way of doing that.” CASEY BABBITT (QUESTROM’19)

6 QUESTROM SCHOOL OF BUSINESS


A BROAD FUNDRAISING EFFORT; AN EVEN BROADER IMPACT Questrom’s MBA students have led a successful fundraising effort each year since the launch of the Internship Fund program in 2012. For the past five years, 100 percent of fulltime first-year MBA students have made gifts in support of their peers. Alumni support is increasingly making a difference, including through contributions on BU’s annual Giving Day. Other alumni, such as Robert Evans (COM’68, Wheelock’71), a successful consultant to nonprofits focused on strategic planning and fundraising, have created endowed funds, which

will permanently support the internship program. “It’s a priority to help create the next generation of nonprofit leaders,” Evans says, “and for Questrom to assist in many different ways will position the school and alumni to become major leaders.” Another alumnus, Bill Donovan (Questrom’70), visited with MBA students and learned about their passion and accomplishments. Inspired, he funded two social impact internships.

Your impact: CAREER READINESS LEARNING ABOUT RETAIL AT THE HEART OF THE INDUSTRY At Questrom, education happens in the classroom and out—even in other cities and countries. With donor support, the school is able to offer more and more “career treks”: trips to cities or regions during which students visit companies, engage with professionals at work, and participate in conferences and networking. These treks are popular, with reason: they help students connect their new knowledge with real-world activities and opportunities. This year, Steve Larkin (Questrom’80) made a gift to support the first-ever Questrom Retail Trek, a multiday trip to New York City with a spectacular highlight: the National Retail Federation (NRF) Expo, featuring 37,000 attendees, 16,000 retailers, and more than 700 exhibitors.

“The conference was great for the students, and Steve’s generosity made it possible.” DEBORAH UTTER, MASTER LECTURER MARKETING

Questrom students concentrating in retailing and related areas applied for support from Larkin’s fund; those accepted received support for their transport, lodging, and conference fees and went to New York in January alongside Questrom Master Lecturer and retail expert Deborah Utter. While in New York, students also met with Larkin, a merchandising, marketing, and e-commerce executive, to hear his insights on how to best leverage the NRF’s Student Program. Larkin also visited the exhibition with the students and connected them with a number of his contacts. Two students received job offers based on contacts they’d made at the conference. “The conference was great for the students, and Steve’s generosity made it possible,” Utter said. “But beyond his financial support, the fact that he gave us so much of his time was remarkable. And of course the wisdom and advice he shared were indispensable.”

BURNS FAMILY HELPS READY QUESTROM STUDENTS FOR GLOBAL CAREERS With each year, the global economy becomes more tightly interconnected. Our students must understand complex economic systems; they must also know how to lead across cultures and borders. Questrom continues to expand its suite of Global Management Experience courses: for-credit courses that include an immersive trip to another country. Students visit with corporate and academic leaders, learn about foreign cultures, and—in some cases—even do work on behalf of overseas clients. Occasionally, students aren’t able to participate in these programs for lack of financial resources. In 2018, Bladen J. (Questrom’92) and Julia L. (CAS’92, Questrom’94) Burns created various funding opportunities in support of global experiences for students. Their funds provide need-based financial support that students can use to help cover travel expenses that they might not otherwise be able to afford. Resources such as this will help Questrom further build its global offerings and make them more accessible for all students.

YOUR IMPACT 2019 9


Your impact: DIVERSITY AND INCLUSION In 2017 Questrom created a dedicated diversity and inclusion program. Now headed by Tiffany Enos, director of Student Diversity & Inclusion Initiatives, the program engaged students at all levels as well as faculty and staff. Its goal? To help everyone thrive at Questrom, and to make sure that the future business leaders we educate are able to engage in constructive dialogues on difference, identity, culture, and ideology.

ASCEND: A PIONEERING PROGRAM ENTERS ITS SECOND YEAR Ascend, Questrom’s signature program in diversity and inclusion, is a cocurricular fellowship program for members of underrepresented minority groups and first-generation college students. Its many activities help students navigate the abundance of resources at BU and provide opportunities to learn, grow, and succeed. Above all, the program fosters a strong sense of community within its cohort. At the start of the school year, new fellows complete weekly site visits to industry-leading firms, which allow students to get to know one another and explore some of Boston’s top employers. As students progress through Ascend, they engage in leadership workshops, financial literacy seminars, and cultural competency discussions. Freshman fellows also live together and have early, frequent face time with Questrom faculty and leaders. Ascend is still a young program, but it has received strong early feedback and has served as a model for other BU schools. Its success is due in part to the support it has received from numerous donors, among them Doug Buckminster (Questrom’82).

“To be in a boardroom was a fabulous opportunity for our students.” TIFFANY ENOS, DIRECTOR, STUDENT DIVERSITY & INCLUSION INITIATIVES

2018–2019 ASCEND HIGHLIGHTS Building a dialogue In 2018–2019, Questrom Diversity & Inclusion launched a collaboration with the Questrom Grad Council, bringing together undergraduate and graduate students to discuss lively topics and current events. Called “Current,” these discussions are facilitated by trained peers who create a safe space for students to openly share perspectives and navigate their own beliefs and values. This year’s topics included “Business as Usual” and “Leading with Courage” and drew, on average, more than 20 students for this biweekly dialogue series.

Taking it to the Street Off-campus experiences and learning are critical to the success of Ascend. Through site visits and a class called Exploring Your Career (which they take as a group), fellows are consistently exposed to different industries and business roles. Because Ascend places special emphasis on leadership skills, seeing leaders in action is important—as is seeing how leadership approaches can differ depending on context.

FISHER FAMILY BOOSTS QUESTROM’S NEW PEER-ADVISING PROGRAM As Questrom parents and members of the Questrom Parents Advisory Board, Irene and Joel Fisher (Parents Questrom’19) understand the importance of helping new students adjust to college life. This year, they made a gift to support Questrom’s new undergraduate peer-advising program, which trains and employs a select group of upperclassmen to reach out to new students and help them navigate life at the school, from choosing courses to coping with stress to finding new communities. “Gifts like the Fishers’ help us expand this program and reach more students,” says Rachel Reiser, assistant dean of Undergraduate Student Experience and Services. “Basically, the undergrad advisors help make a big place like Questrom feel small.”

10 QUESTROM SCHOOL OF BUSINESS


A January 2019 group trip to New York City, which included a Wall Street tour, gave Ascend students this valuable perspective and more. Many Questrom graduates pursue careers in New York in finance and related industries, but the pathway from college to career can seem unclear, especially for students who are the first in their families to go to college or are part of underrepresented groups. Seeing professionals actually doing the work, and talking to them about how they got there, provides students inspiration and a refined understanding of how to prepare for such careers. This year, 39 Ascend students met with executives at Macy’s, American Express, and Goldman Sachs. At the companies and over dinner, they talked with various BU alumni about their experiences on Wall Street, including Doug Buckminster, an American Express executive whose generous gift helped underwrite the costs of the students’ experience. “For many of the students, it was their first time in New York City,” said Enos, who leads Ascend. “All three corporate visits and the Wall Street tour were very informative, educational, and engaging. It was powerful to see the students think of this experience as ‘normal.’

“To be in a boardroom was a fabulous opportunity for our students,” Enos added. “It was inspiring; I felt as though I was looking into the future. The students could picture themselves working there. They proved to themselves that they belong.”

NEW DIVERSITY & INCLUSION INITIATIVES IN 2018–2019 Another new diversity and inclusion initiative launched at Questrom this year centered on supporting Questrom’s LGBTQ+ community and on increasing cultural competency. Facilitated by two faculty and staff members, these conversations create a space for open dialogue and exchange to build on a foundation of knowledge and explore appropriate language in support of the LGBTQ+ community.

SPOTLIGHT: DIVER(STORIES) CONFERENCE In April, Questrom hosted Diver(stories), a conference designed to empower inclusive leaders. This one-day event highlighted matters of diversity and inclusion through personal narratives of identity in the business world. Speakers included: Tammy Jones CEO/Co-founder, Basis Investment Group Chloe Barzey Managing Director, Accenture Ajoy Bhattacharya (Questrom’14) Senior Director of Innovation and New Technologies, Suffolk Construction Dr. Atyia Martin CEO/Founder, All Aces, Inc. Yesenia Bello US Multicultural Sales Lead, Google
