Harvard Business School experience heads down under SHARE THIS ARTICLE
Two managing directors have teamed up to offer their real estate teams a unique learning opportunity: an exclusive six-month course with a Harvard Business School professor.
The Coronis Group’s Andrew Coronis and Harris Real Estate’s Phil Harris are currently studying business MBAs from the Harvard Business School themselves and, alongside fellow students Pippa Hallas (Ella Bache CEO), Jack Winson (Winson Group CEO) and Lynda Kelly (Explores Early Learning MD), have decided to bring the Harvard experience back to their respective teams.
Professor Boris Groysberg will be running the six-part virtual course, which is designed to offer the 110 attendees a “holistic and practical education that will improve their life, careers, family and mindset”.

I moderated a Keynote Panel Thursday at the Ethics & Compliance Initiative’s (ECI) 2021 IMPACT Conference. On the panel were Greg Keating, partner at Epstein Becker Green, Dr. Kyle Welch, Assistant Professor at George Washington University and Dr. Pat Harned, CEO of ECI. Our topic was whistleblowers, recent reports on whistleblower activity over the past year and whistleblower retaliation. Interestingly, Dr. Welch and Keating suggested that one of the key areas to obtain whistleblowing and other reporting information is in the exit interview.
Moreover, the exit interview can be a further mechanism to operationalize compliance. This type of interview is used when someone voluntarily departs from a company, as opposed to a lay-off or reduction in force exercise. Typically departing employees are more willing to share about their experiences, concerns and issues which led to their employment departure.

Saturday, 10 April 2021, marks a year since the death of Collins Khosa. One of South Africa’s news media outlets recently posted a commemorative documentary depicting the circumstances surrounding his death. The autopsy of Khosa’s body concluded that blunt force trauma to the head is what killed him. Eyewitness accounts strongly suggest this trauma occurred at the hands of South African National Defence Force (SANDF) soldiers, in the presence of members of the Johannesburg Metropolitan Police Department.
The criminal investigation of the SANDF members implicated in Khosa’s death has been finalised and the case is awaiting action from the National Prospecting Authority. However, a report by South Africa’s military ombudsman has already determined the soldiers’ conduct was “improper, irregular and in contravention of the code of conduct, operational orders and rules of engagement”.
The Secret to Getting More Women in Leadership: Men
The difference between women s and men s earnings is on average 18 cents per dollar earned, and even more than that for women of color. After years in which women have constituted about half of the college-educated workforce, this significant, unchanging pay gap and the lack of representation of women in the upper echelons of senior management are troubling. In fact, only a surprisingly tiny 7.8 percent of CEOs at S&P 500 companies were female at the close of 2020. Why is it taking so long to shatter the proverbial glass ceiling once and for all? This is the question asked by Harvard Business School professors Colleen Ammerman and Boris Groysberg in their new book Glass Half-Broken: Shattering the Barriers That Still Hold Women Back at Work
