The Darden Speaker Series brings top-level corporate, government, and industry leaders to Darden to discuss current business issues and trends, and their individual leadership philosophy. These guest speakers represent a variety of experiences, industries and geographical regions, but all share a similar commitment to the core values consistent with the Darden mission: to better society by developing leaders in the world of practical affairs.
The Darden GreenPod, the school's newest series, is hosted by Erika Herz, Manager of Sustainability Programs for the Batten Institute at Darden. The program covers a wide range of topics with leading scholars and professionals concerning the principles and practices of environmental sustainability.
The Entrepreneurship Series, (provided by Startup Studio), is produced and hosted by Darden alumna Betsy Flanagan (MBA '98). This series inspires audiences by showcasing examples of people who once lived ordinary lives and went on to create something extraordinary from the businesses or organizations they created from scratch.
