214 Mike Lord - Understanding Corporate ...

Raymond A. Mason School of Business
About this episode

It’s difficult to succeed in business today without having a solid grasp of public affairs, public policy, and politics. Regardless of the size of your business or sector, decisions that are made in your state capitol, Washington, D.C., and beyond can greatly affect your bottom line. Learning to strategically manage corporate public affairs was the focus of a recent three day workshop for William & Mary’s Executive MBA students. The workshop took place at the Washington Campus; a non-profit, non-partisan education consortium in Washington, D.C. that partners with top business schools and universities around the world. Mike Lord is the President of the Washington Campus. He joins us today to talk about public policy, public affairs, and why business leaders must be well-versed in this arena. 

Learn how the Raymond A. Mason School of Business at William and Mary can help you and your organization develop your top talent through customized executive education and professional development programs. Visit us at www.wmleadership.com. Thank you for listening.
