Annenberg Leadership and Management Speaker Series

In the past year or two, HMC has hosted a speaker series for leadership development. They bring in people who share insights into leadership in a technological world. Last week we went to hear Indra Nooyi, the COO of PepsiCo, and last night we heard an HMC alum who works for Microsoft and was instrumental in the development of their tablet, Surface.

Michael Angiulo '93 gave a very engaging talk about his path through Microsoft, from intern to Corporate VP and the things which motivate him to be creative and successful. He works on projects that are 1) hard 2) intrinsically interesting to him 3) supposedly impossible. If someone says to him, "It can't be done", he knows he's on the right track.
