General PublicOther

Description

In January, the HBS Association of Boston heard from Diane Hessan, MBA ’77, about the insights from her massive research study to understand American voters. That project is now a highly-acclaimed new book, Our Common Ground, and Diane will return to share with us her surprising findings about voters in America: where we agree, how much we misunderstand each other, and where we go from here. We will save plenty of time for your questions and comments.

Diane will be interviewed by HBS’s Tsedal Neeley, Naylor Fitzhugh Professor of Business Administration, an expert on leadership, remote work, and large-scale change.

Following the formal program, there will be moderated breakout groups where attendees will have the opportunity to share their reactions and thoughts on this important topic.

5:00PM – 6:15PM ET Program

6:15PM – 7:00PM ET Optional Follow-on Discussion & Breakout Groups

Participants must register by NOON on July 21st to receive details on joining the discussion. The Zoom link will be sent out 24 hours before the event.

Please note that no refunds will be issued.
