Introducing Speaker: And it’s my pleasure to introduce today’s speaker. Before I do that, I want to acknowledge this is our final VFTT for the year. And it’s the Roanak Desai Memorial talk. Roanak was a member of the MBA class of 2010. And we’re joined today by several of his classmates and friends as our special guests.

Roanak was a remarkable and accomplished individual. And as a student leader of the View From The Top series, he was passionate about exploring how prominent leaders who run some of the world’s most influential enterprises can truly impact the lives of millions. He recognized that each of these leaders have their own personal story, their own values and their own ideas about how to make change happen. His desire to learn from these individuals was motivated by a commitment to reflecting on his own personal leadership story. He aimed to leave a positive and significant mark on the world. But he wanted to do so in a way that was consistent with his values. To this end his talent and ambition was always complemented by his extraordinary warm spirit and his gracious good humor.
