New Orleans needs you!
Camille Terk (Tulane MBA 05) is working with the Committee for Economic recovery in New Orleans and has contacted me to help build a team of Freeman MBAs and Freeman Alumni that are dedicated to the rebuilding of New Orleans and Southeast Louisiana.
In her own words this is who we need for this great opportunity:
Specifically, right now, I have already had requests for MBAs who are willing to:
1) evaluate other city government structures and come up with a best practices list of recommendations. Basically, who is doing what and how can we learn from other cities.
2) help generate out of the box ideas for new industry possibilities for New Orleans.
3) help generate and support the development of a biotech industry in NOLA.
And much more. These are just a few examples of work that committee members need help with currently. I think, who better than Tulane alums!?
So… I need your help. Can you help me to organize this- like yesterday?
So if you are interested please email me or call me as I am putting together a spreadsheet of interested people and what and how they would like to help. To email me use the link on the right.
I also received a call from Shannon Jones. She is working with President Cowen and the Committee for Education as part of the recovery process. She asked that we build a team of Freeman MBAs that are concentrating in marketing to design a plan to delivery the new message and brainstorm on ideas to create a new image for the new system in New Orleans. Another great opportunity! They are currently looking for currently enrolled MBAs, so if you are a first or second year MBA concentrating in Marketing and wants to help rebuild New Orleans, please let me know!
