BUSINESS LEADERS FORUM 1
FROM THE PRESIDENT
Dear Villanovans and Friends,
Welcome to the 2012 Villanova University Business Leaders Forum. I appreciate you taking the time from your busy schedules to participate in what has become a signa-ture Villanova event. It is my hope that the Forum provides you with an opportunity to connect with one another, engage in important dialogue, and learn more about Villanova and its strategy for the future.
This year’s Business Leaders Forum affords a setting to publically introduce you to Patrick G. Maggitti, PhD, The Helen and William O’Toole Dean of the Villanova School of Business. His energy, creativity, integrity, inclusiveness, and collaborative style have made him exceptionally successful and, I believe, an ideal leader to move VSB forward. I encourage you to get to know Patrick and work closely with him to ensure that Villanova and VSB achieve excellence.
Once again, a highlight of the Forum will be the presentation of the Rev. Joseph C. Bartley, OSA Alumni Medallion to a distinguished Villanova School of Business alumnus/a. This year’s recipient is Sheila F. Klehm ’83 VSB, a member of the Villanova University Board of Trustees and Executive Director, Morgan Stanley Private Wealth Management. Sheila’s distinguished career, commitment to her community, and extraordinary service to the University and the Villanova School of Business combine to make her a worthy recipient of this honor. It gives me great pride to acknowledge Sheila’s tireless efforts on behalf of Villanova and her community.
Progress continues on many projects throughout the University, and I invite you to stroll around to see the changes in person. The second year of the three-year Transformation of the Campus Landscape Initiative is nearly complete and includes the construction of a new Grotto in between Austin and St. Rita Halls and the creation of the Kennedy Ellipse in the area in between Kennedy, Dougherty, and Corr Halls. Renovations to the Italian Kitchen in Dougherty Hall have resulted in the creation of Café Nova, although for many this space will always be The Pie Shop. We continue to move forward with the planning and approval process for residence halls and related projects proposed for the current main parking lots along Lancaster Avenue. Change is never easy or quick, but I am confident that these notable improvements to the campus, combined with our excellent academic programs and student services, will allow Villanova to better serve its students.
Thank you for your participation in this year’s Business Leaders Forum. I am sincerely grateful to each of you for everything that you do for Villanova as we continue to work together to ensure that we deliver an outstanding education rooted in the Augustinian tradition.
Sincerely,
Rev. Peter M. Donohue, OSA, PhD, ’75 A&SPresidentVillanova University

BUSINESS LEADERS FORUM 3
Dear Villanova Alumni, Parents, and Friends,
It is my distinct pleasure to welcome you to the third annual Villanova University Business Leaders Forum.
As we approach the US general election, this year’s Business Leaders Forum focuses on “Economic and Political Transitions.” Our keynote speaker, Michael A. Smerconish—a nationally-syndicated radio host, newspaper columnist, author, and MSNBC contributor—is eminently qualified to provide us with insight into the election and its potential ramifications. Mr. Smerconish will be followed by a distinguished panel of industry executives including Catherine M. Keating ’84 A&S, Head of Investment Management Americas, JP Morgan; Michael J. Thomson ’80 VSB, President and COO, SunCoke Energy; and Robert A. McMahon ’79 VSB, Leader, US Policy and Government Relations, Merck & Co., Inc. Our notable speakers are certain to provide a lively discussion and Q&A as we anticipate the upcoming Presidential race.
I would like to take this opportunity to once again congratulate Sheila F. Klehm ’83 VSB, 2012 recipient of the Rev. Joseph C. Bartley, OSA Alumni Medallion. Sheila is a former chair of the VSB Dean’s Advisory Council, and she is currently a member of the Villanova University Board of Trustees. Sheila’s service to Villanova and her community have been exemplary, and VSB is honored to recognize her accomplishments at this year’s Forum.
I’ve had the opportunity to work with many of you on initiatives including the Villanova Center for Innovation, Creativity, and Entrepreneurship (ICE Center). I look forward to our continued efforts, along with those of you I am just meeting, to advance and extend the great success of the Villanova School of Business. We are very fortunate to enjoy your tremendous gifts of time and resources—without which our ability to impact the lives of our students and the world would be greatly limited. We have much to accomplish, and I am confident that through our collective efforts we will achieve excellence as we continue to prepare future business leaders who will act responsibly and ethically, and make Villanova proud. I welcome your active participation as we strive to reach greater heights.
Best regards,
Patrick G. Maggitti, PhDThe Helen and William O’Toole DeanVillanova School of Business

Keynote Speaker
MICHAEL A. SMERCONISH Nationally-syndicated radio host, newspaper columnist, author and MSNBC contributor
Michael A. Smerconish is a nationally-syndicated radio host whose daily program reaches more than fifty markets across America. He is also a best-selling author, a contributor to MSNBC and TheDailyBeast, and a columnist for the Philadelphia Inquirer who has been re-printed in various newspapers across the country. Confident, enthusiastic, and expressive (traits essential to his radio career), Smerconish shares fun talk radio stories about topics that bring people together while discussing the political issues that divide us. He addresses the polarization in Washington and attributes it to a number of factors including rewarding bad political behavior with fundraising opportunities, the emergence of passion and conviction as the new “seniority,” gerrymandering, and—most importantly of all—the media and the stories it chooses to publicize.
Smerconish was the first radio host to interview President Barack Obama, and he has interviewed him more often than any other radio personality. Smerconish has also interviewed Presidents Jimmy Carter, George H.W. Bush, Bill Clinton, and George W. Bush, as well as Vice Presidents Al Gore, Dick Cheney, and Joe Biden, and Senator John McCain.
Additionally, Smerconish is an on-air contributor with MSNBC. In 2008, he covered both the Democratic and Republican National Conventions for the network. He appears regularly on Hardball with Chris Matthews (a program he has guest hosted) and has been a guest on virtually every television program where politics
KEYNOTE SPEAKER AND PANELISTS
are discussed, including TODAY, The Colbert Report, O’Reilly Factor, Larry King Live, The View, and Real Time With Bill Maher. In 2006, Smerconish also participated in the Pentagon-sponsored Joint Civilian Orientation Conference, during which he visited four Middle Eastern countries and was briefed by Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld at the Pentagon.
Smerconish became a radio and television commen-tator after being inspired by his early political experiences, including working as an advanceman for (then) Vice President George H.W. Bush and in a sub-cabinet level position in the Department of Housing and Urban Development.
Smerconish is the author of five books, two of them New York Times best-sellers. His published books include: Flying Blind: How Political Correctness Continues to Compromise Airline Safety Post 9/11; Muzzled: From T-Ball to Terrorism, True Stories that Should Be Fiction (one of his best-sellers); Murdered By Mumia: A Life Sentence of Loss, Pain and Injustice (another best-seller); Morning Drive: Things I Wish I Knew Before I Started Talking; and Instinct: The Man Who Stopped the 20th Hijacker.
Smerconish has often been recognized for his radio work. Talkers Magazine has consistently named him one of America’s most important talk show hosts, and Radio and Records named him the nation’s 2009 “Local Personality of the Year.” In 2011, the National Association of Broadcasters selected him as a Marconi Award finalist. He has also been the recipient of several Achievement in Radio Awards. Philadelphia magazine named him the city’s best talk show host, as well as one of the city’s most powerful citizens.

CENTER FOR GLOBAL LEADERSHIP
The Center for Global Leadership (CGL) contributes to the development of VSB’s global strategy, empha-sizing integrated international business (IB) studies and responsible global leadership; serves as a source of new ideas, resources, and innovations for VSB’s international curricular initiatives and service and outreach activities; and acts as a catalyst for faculty research and innovation in IB practice, ethical leadership, and global corporate responsibility across VSB and the University.
In addition to encouraging broad participation in global programs, CGL increasingly emphasizes emerging markets, especially the BRIC nations—Brazil, Russia, India, and China—as well as smaller developing coun-tries, because these economies are expected to lead global growth and prosperity in the future.
CGL works closely with the student-led International Business Society (IBS), which provides a global perspec-tive for students interested in international careers, and Business Without Borders, a group dedicated to demon-strating how business skills can benefit local and global communities through various service-oriented projects and initiatives.
In 2012, 50 percent of VSB’s graduating class participated in study abroad and/or international internships, and 25 percent had an IB co-major or minor. EMBA and fast-track MBA students all participated in their required international experience, traveling and undertaking proj-ects in Argentina, Chile, China, Hungary, South Africa, South Korea, and Turkey.

THE DANIEL M. DILELLA CENTER FOR REAL ESTATE
The Daniel M. DiLella Center for Real Estate was established to provide outstanding academic and profes-sional development opportunities in the field of real estate to Villanova students. Our real estate programs strive to deepen students’ understanding of the technical components of the real estate industry, of their social responsibilities as sheppards of land and environment, and of the importance of creating opportunities for service and giving whenever possible.
The center supports faculty research and teaching, ensuring relevance in the curriculum through the incorporation of site visits, experiential learning projects, industry-standard tools, and the perspectives of industry experts. As of spring 2012, the center offers an undergrad-uate co-major and minor in real estate—with real estate focused courses including investments, law, development, modeling, accounting, capital markets, and economics—and a real estate specialization within the Villanova MBA program.
The center connects and mobilizes the Villanova real estate community—through educational programs, thought leadership initiatives, and networking events—to expand the horizons of a new generation of real estate leaders and to generate vibrant conversations among real estate professionals on issues facing the real estate industry.
Center Highlights and Accomplishments
• Theundergraduaterealestateco-majorwasapprovedand implemented this year. New courses offered to co-majors allow students the opportunity to become ARGUS certified and to be exposed to their choice of real estate capital markets, accounting, or economics.
• TheDiLellaCenterforRealEstatemembershipprogram was established in fall 2011 to provide oppor-tunities for Villanova real estate community members to connect and engage. The program offers members access to industry events and conversations, faculty research briefings, and special publications, including student résumé books and a membership directory. During the 2011–12 year programs were held in Philadelphia, New York, and Washington, DC.
ACADEMIC CENTERS OF EXCELLENCE

Hosted by VSB, the challenge provides national recognition for Villanova’s real estate program among both industry and academic audiences. This year, twelve universities competed for $12,000 in prizes.
• TheannualCommercialRealEstateCareerConference brings top employers to campus to connect students with career and mentorship opportunities. A panel of recent graduates shared their experiences during their first few months of employment. Jerry Sweeney, CEO of Brandywine Realty Trust, provided the keynote presentation in which he shared a sampling of life lessons and advice with current students and young professionals. Over 60 real estate professionals were on hand to discuss valuable professional experi-ence opportunities available through the Villanova Real Estate Internship Program and beyond graduation.
Looking Ahead
The 2012–13 academic year will mark the five-year anni-versary of the Daniel M. DiLella Center for Real Estate. To date, over 175 students have graduated from Villanova with a real estate minor, co-major, or MBA specializa-tion. Our real estate academic and professional programs provide a competitive edge to the University and to our students. Looking ahead, The Daniel M. DiLella Center for Real Estate will strive to be a nationally-recognized leader among academic and professional audiences. The center will attract top students seeking a real estate degree who are greatly sought after by corporate recruiters. To get involved, email [email protected].

CENTER FOR MARKETING AND PUBLIC POLICY RESEARCHThe Center for Marketing and Public Policy Research tests the intended and unintended consequences of govern-ment regulation on business, consumers, and society. The center leverages Villanova’s strong international reputation, faculty, and executive network in the business and policy arena to provide research that guides business and regulatory processes, while giving students unique networking and consulting experiences that accelerate their career development cycle. The center also encour-ages development of unique curricular initiatives with its advisory board. In 2010, the center expanded into a series of Strategic Business Units (SBUs) led by Villanova faculty.
Students have opportunities for professional development through the center’s Conair International Ambassadors Program and Washington, DC, Internship Program. The domestic program seeks to give students a unique experience in Washington, DC, through continuous engagement with Capitol Hill, while the international program (led by Professor Michael Capella) sends students to Rome for a series of high-level business and political meetings, client interaction, and internships in organiza-tions such as the Italian Parliament.
At the MBA level, students have the opportunity to consult for senior government officials. For example, the Fast Track MBA Cohort wrote a book with Director Kozup titled Positioning Mauritius in the International Marketplace: A Pro-Growth Blueprint. This book was presented to the Vice Prime Minister of Mauritius, Xavier Luc-Duval, during his Distinguished Lecture at Villanova on April 23, 2012.

CENTER FOR INNOVATION, CREATIVITY, AND ENTREPRENEURSHIPThe Center for Innovation, Creativity, and Entrepreneurship (ICE Center) is at the forefront of Villanova University’s strategy to foster cross-college and interdisciplinary opportunities for the collabora-tive pursuit of knowledge. The ICE Center advances the Augustinian vision by embedding creative problem solving more deeply in the Villanova culture through the development and promotion of initiatives in the related areas of creativity, innovation, and entrepreneurship. While located within VSB and founded upon one of its four strategic pillars—innovation—the ICE Center’s mandate is unique in its cross-college and primary focus on the creative and innovative skills needed to identify and act upon new knowledge and ideas. Fundamental to new ventures, these entrepreneurial skills are increas-ingly recognized as being central to success and highly sought after by existing organizations of all types—large/small/profit/not-for-profit. In recent surveys of executives, the ability to think entrepreneurially was considered the most important leadership characteristic, and more than 60 percent of Fortune 500 CEOs indicate that the ability to think creatively is even more important than intelligence. While traditional entrepreneurship in the form of startup organizations remains a central driver of economic growth, more than 70 percent of existing organizations cite innovation and “intrapreneurship” as key to their future growth and success.
The ICE Center strives to support traditional entre-preneurship and startups, but its broader mission is to symbolize Villanova’s commitment to nurture creative and innovative thinkers. Villanovans are already known to be among the best, most well-rounded students, and the ICE Center seeks to provide opportunities to develop and highlight their entrepreneurial spirit as well.
Center Highlights and AccomplishmentsVillanova in the ValleyThe ICE Center’s inaugural Villanova in the Valley program was designed to expose students from across the Villanova campus to the innovative, creative, and entrepre-neurial ecosystem of Silicon Valley. Over a five-day trip in
ACADEMIC CENTERS OF EXCELLENCE
mid-May, students met and networked with Villanovans from companies like Google, Apple, and Facebook and met with entrepreneurs and founders of several Silicon Valley startups. Alumnus Michael Gardner ’67 A&S served as a program coordinator and helped to connect students from the Villanova School of Business, Villanova School of Law, the College of Engineering, and the College of Liberal Arts & Sciences to Villanovans with a wide range of professional backgrounds.
Villanova Entrepreneurs NetworkAlumnus Rick Anthony, Sr. ’59 A&S joined the ICE Center as an Entrepreneur-in-Residence and brought his signature program, The Entrepreneurs Network, to the University. Now known as the Villanova Entrepreneurs Network, this networking venue connects startup entrepreneurs, serial entrepreneurs, service providers, and alumni who are working on innovative new ventures in the Philadelphia area and beyond. More than 350 individuals have attended the first five Villanova Entrepreneurs Events, including alumni from the College of Liberal Arts & Sciences, the Villanova School of Business, the College of Engineering, and the Villanova School of Law. The next Villanova Entrepreneurs Network meeting will be on Wednesday, November 14, 2012, during Global Entrepreneurship Week.
Pitch DayThe ICE Center teamed up with the Villanova Student Entrepreneurship Competition (VSEC) and the Beyond Ideas Committee to present Pitch Day 2012 on April 24, 2012. More than 80 alumni, faculty, and community members came to Bartley Hall to judge student entries in the VSEC, business plans in the Entrepreneurship Minor programs (both from VSB and COE), the Electrical and Computer Engineering Senior Design projects, and the prototypes designed in the Mobile Applications develop-ment course. Overall more than 250 students participated in Pitch Day, which concluded with a new signature event for the ICE Center—a reception celebrating innovation, creativity, and entrepreneurship across the Villanova campus.

THE CENTER FOR THE STUDY OF CHURCH MANAGEMENT
Statement of Philosophy: The Church is not a business, but it does have a stewardship responsibility to use its resources effectively. Frequently that requires the use of sound lead-ership and management techniques that are not typically taught to clergy and lay leaders in the Church.
Statement of Mission: The Center for the Study of Church Management offers educational programs and conducts research intended to develop the Church’s business plan of the 21st century. Its constituents include all individuals in church leadership and administrative roles who are seeking to become better stewards of church resources by improving their leadership and management skills.

A table surrounded by winners can be a wonderful thing. In structuring a deal, it means collaboration without capitulation. It also means having a law firm that sees and solves problems that exist without generating solutions to problems that don’t. All of which makes us more than a business partner; it makes us an ally. It’s not typical. But neither are we.
