Hi Bob,

Thank you for your e-mail. I will confirm with Austan and Steve that the info below is correct and if they have any pre-read material.

Madhav will be traveling on the 12^th, so I will let you know who will do intros and moderate. Arranging a tour and a place for the bus won’t be a problem at all.

I’ll be back in touch with more info when I have it to share.

Thanks so much!

Best regards,

Holly

 

 

Hi Holly,

 

I hope you have been well since the phone call with Deputy Consul General Itay Milner.

 

I am just following up with you to go over some details regarding the program at Booth on June 12th for the delegation of IDF officers.

 

·         This is the how the agenda item on their schedule currently appears, complete with links to the faculty bios of Professors Goolsbee and Kaplan.

 

11:00 am-1:00 pm      U. of Chicago, Booth School of Business. Charles M. Harper Center. 5807 S. Woodlawn Ave. Room TBD

Presentations by Professors Austan Goolsbee and Steven Kaplan.

Topics: Goolsbee: “Forecasts for US Economy based on President Trump’s domestic and foreign economic policies”;

Kaplan: “Characteristics that make a successful CEO/leader”.

Contact: Holly Stauffer, EA to Dean Rajan. Tel: (773) 702-6680; Holly.Stauffer@chicagobooth.edu .

 

·         Are the topics accurate as the Professors plan to present  them?

 

·         If the Professors have written any brief articles on these topics that might enhance the officers’ understanding of their presentations, they are welcome to suggest and forward links to them.

 

·         Who will be introducing the presenters and moderating the Q&A? Dean Rajan? Someone else?

 

·         After the presentations, would there be someone available to give the delegation a brief tour of the main Quads after the meeting and before they go to Hillel? They are due at Hillel by 1:30 pm where they will have lunch.

 

·         Also, they will need a designated space for their bus to wait for both the Booth meeting and Hillel. We would appreciate

 

Itay and I would be happy to discuss any and all of these points with you. I have also copies Rebecca Gold who is our Academic Affairs Director and will also be with the delegation.

 

Thanks for your assistance!

 

Best,

 

Bob
