Hendrickson Institute for Ethical Leadership announces its ‘Forum 2010’

The Hendrickson Institute for Ethical Leadership will host its Forum 2010 on April 28 in Minneapolis.

Dr. Marcelo Suárez-Orozco, a world-renowned author and speaker, will give a public presentation titled, “World Migration: Best Practices for Business and Society in a Changing World.”

Tickets will go on sale Jan. 12 and will be $25 for general admission, $10 for students, and $20 for faculty/staff. A limited number of complimentary faculty/staff tickets will be available. Contact Barb Hall at bhall@smumn.edu.

One of every 35 people on the planet is working, living or moving across national borders.

Dr. Suárez-Orozco will show us why this wave of immigration is vastly different from previous ones and discuss profound implications for every facet of business and society. As a world-renowned lecturer, he will share the top-level information that has informed business and political leaders from the United Nations to the Vatican. Because understanding the scope of immigration is only the first step, he will also provide resources and innovative strategies about “best practices” to speed adjustment by both immigrants and current citizens.

Dr. Suárez-Orozco is a distinguished scholar and lecturer on immigration, globalization and education. He is the co-founder of the Harvard Immigration Projects and is currently the Richard Fisher Membership Fellow, Institute for Advanced Study, Princeton, and the Courtney Sale Ross University Professor of Globalization and Education at New York University.
