Exec Ed in India
HBS senior faculty will teach the School’s first-ever Exec Ed program in India February 10–15 in Hyderabad. The program, Building a Global Enterprise in India, offered in conjunction with HBS’s India Research Center, will feature cases tailored to the needs of companies operating in the country and the region’s senior executives. The program is based on ten years of research by HBS faculty in India.

Harvard Management’s El-Erian Steps Down
Mohamed El-Erian, the president and CEO of Harvard Management Company (HMC) and a member of the HBS faculty, announced in September that he would step down from HMC at the end of this year and return to California and his former firm, Pacific Investment Management Company. HMC manages Harvard University’s endowment. Robert Kaplan, Professor of Management Practice at HBS and a senior director of The Goldman Sachs Group, is serving as HMC’s interim CEO.

Wells to Lead IMD
HBS Professor of Management Practice John Wells (MBA ’79, DBA ’84) has been named the new president of the International Institute for Management Development (IMD), in Lausanne, Switzerland, effective this spring. Beginning in the 1980s, Wells served as a European-based chief executive of several firms, including the Monitor Company and Datapaq, both of which he cofounded. He also served as CFO for PepsiCo and Frito-Lay International. After a teaching stint at HBS in the mid-1980s, Wells rejoined the faculty in 2002.

All Aboard for Board Members
Since Alumni Career Services launched its board of directors résumé database a year ago, it has grown to more than 1,000 names of HBS graduates interested in serving on public or private boards. Initially, only executive search firms could access the database to assist in matching alumni with board vacancies. But now, in response to many requests, HBS alumni may do so, too, says Chris Sullivan, director of Alumni Career Services. Graduates may access the information at www.alumni.hbs.edu/careers/.
