Leading up to Commencement Day, we’re celebrating this year’s Alumni Achievement Award recipients. The award is given annually to recognize alumni who are leaders in their fields and who exemplify the mission, highest standards, and values of HBS.
Looking back on a wide-ranging career as a leader in the private, nonprofit, and public sectors, Bonnie Cohen sees a throughline. “The roles that I’ve held divide into finance and management,” she says. “But really what I’ve done is take up the challenges that people have given me.”
Over the course of a multifaceted career, Cohen has held leadership roles in the private, public, and nonprofit sectors. A few years out of HBS, Cohen managed the United Mine Workers of America Health and Retirement Funds; after a family move to California, she served as consultant to Stanford University’s endowment and Hewlett Packard’s retirement funds. In 1989, Cohen was selected as senior financial officer for the National Trust for Historic Preservation, later becoming the organization’s COO. In 1992, she entered the US government as Assistant Secretary of the Interior for Policy, Management and Budget, serving until 1996. In 1997, Secretary of State Madeleine Albright asked Cohen to be her Undersecretary of State for Management—in effect, the agency’s COO. When her term ended in 2000, she founded B.R. Cohen & Associates, a firm providing logistical insights to film companies shooting overseas. More recently, she has worked to revitalize the DC Public Libraries, overseeing a $200 million effort to modernize the flagship Martin Luther King, Jr. Library as well as construction or renovation of 21 neighborhood libraries.

When @cityfreshboston considered expanding into the medically tailored meals space, it turned to HBS students for go-to-market strategies. The company, which has long served nutritious meals to students, seniors, and daycare centers in Greater Boston’s under-resourced communities, is one of many ventures that benefit from the expertise of second-year MBA students in HBS’s Scaling Minority Businesses course.
Launched by Senior Lecturers Henry McGee, Archie Jones, and Jeff Bussgang in 2020 during the COVID-19 pandemic and racial justice reckoning following George Floyd’s murder, the course was designed to help Black-owned businesses in Boston not just survive, but thrive, while reinforcing for MBA students how business can be a force for good in the world.
Today, it has expanded its partnerships to include companies owned by underinvested entrepreneurs all along the East Coast. Over 12 weeks, students tackle challenges the businesses face, such as access to financial and social capital, offering their partners practical solutions. In return, says Jones, “The biggest takeaway for the students is their ability to have an impact on these underinvested communities—applying what they've learned in class to something that will help solve some societal ills and have personal and economic benefits as well.”
