Dear Friends and Colleagues:
On behalf of the Harvard Business School Club of New York (HBSCNY), we welcome you to the 51st annual
Leadership Dinner, honoring business and community leaders who are making a difference. We are grateful
to you for being our partner in our endeavors to bring the thought leadership of Harvard Business School
and our New York alumni’s education and experience to work for our community.
We are retiring as Chair and President of HBSCNY and wish to thank all of our Directors, Officers, Club members,
HBS alumni, and members of the New York community for supporting us as we worked to enable the Club to
carry out its mission.
We are pleased to announce our successors Mark Tatum, MBA ’98, as Chair and Andrew Cheskis, MBA ’84,
as President. Mark, National Basketball Association’s (NBA’s) Deputy Commissioner and Chief Operating Officer,
has been an active member of the Club’s Board since 2014. Andy, formerly an executive of MasterCard Inc. for
24 years, is currently the Club’s Executive Vice President and previously the co-Vice President of the Club’s
Social Enterprise division.
We want to thank our Dinner Chair Jide Zeitlin, MBA ’87, and our wonderful honorees. A tremendous amount of
volunteer work has gone into this evening, including the extraordinary efforts of Leadership Dinner Committee
co-Chairs Bruce Marcus, MBA ’80, and Amy Vecchione, MBA ’84. We want to also thank the Committee members
who helped to make this a successful and memorable occasion.
We hope you all have a wonderful evening.
Sincerely,

A UNIQUE CLUB
As the largest HBS organization globally, the Club provides the opportunity for alumni—at all ages and all career stages—
to work together around common passions and to add value to their lives and their community. The Club enables HBS
alumni to participate and contribute in ways that balance personal and community interests, time availability and depth
of commitment.
The broad scope of Club activities and 400+ active volunteers distinguishes it from almost all other alumni clubs.
The Club

100+ wide-ranging speakers and events annually;
• provides an unmatched ability to meet HBS alumni in a relaxed setting to make friends and professional alliances;
• contributes to the Greater NYC Community through the Community Partners pro bono consulting projects
to nonprofits. 270 participants provide more than 14,000 volunteer hours;
• addresses a key local economic challenge through the Skills Gap Initiative, which connects NYC educational
institutions with businesses to build needed skills in the local workforce;
• provides dynamic opportunities in entrepreneurship through Alumni Startups and Startup Partners,
and plays a leadership role in HBS’s New Venture Competition and other national programs;
• supports the largest angel investing group in New York via HBSAANY, with over 350 members and investments
in 65 companies;
• enables senior alumni to remain vitally engaged though daytime events that explore arts, business, and community;
• grants scholarships to send local nonprofit executives to HBS Executive Education programs and awards
fellowships that give HBS students experience on the front lines of entrepreneurship and social enterprise; and
• provides local support for HBS-initiated global programs.
