This is the guy who told me that the world is full of great ideas, but success is all about execution....

Hey everybody,

I know there are a million things going on in the Park School and across campus these days (did you see Illuminations on Friday night? it was unbelievable...and how about FLEFF? Again, amazing....)

But there's a Park alum coming to campus this week you just can't miss. Really. I never say things like that (well, OK, sometimes I do, but this time, I really mean it. Really.)

His name is David Lebow, and he's vice president and general Manager of AOL Media Networks. He's also one of the sharpest, brightest, most common-sense, down-to-earth, make-it-happen guys you will ever meet.

This is a guy who will tell you how to be an effective leader -- in the agency, on the film set, in the corporate boardroom or the newsroom. And he'll be doing it in lecture format, and in small groups.

First, Lebow will present "Effective Leadership: Managing for Results" on Thursday, April 5, at 7:30 p.m. in the Emerson Suites, Phillips Hall.

Even better, he'll be meeting with small groups of IC students on Friday to discuss the future of business, media and technology. Bring your resume and receive career advice from one of the world's top executives.

There are two time slots available on Friday: 10am – 12pm in Park 220 (Park School) and 1pm – 3pm in Clark Lounge (Campus Center).

If you're interested, please RSVP to SIE@ithaca.edu with what session you would like to attend.

If I were you, I'd do it now. (And I may see you there....)

Cheers,
Dianne
