Just 10 days into his presidency, Mark Rosenberg<\/strong>, president, Florida International University (FIU), has already connected with an important group in the College of Business Administration: the Dean\u2019s Alumni Circle.<\/a><\/p>\n

The meeting, arranged by Joyce Elam<\/strong>, executive dean of the business school, brought Rosenberg to the building complex for a two-hour session with Circle members during which he shared his vision about alumni, and began an important dialogue.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt was amazing,\u201d said Sheila Shedd<\/strong> (EMBA \u201909), the city clerk of Homestead, who was attending her first event as a Circle member. \u201cI\u2019m more and more impressed each time I hear about his ideas.\u201d<\/p>\n

Among a number of ideas specifically geared toward alumni—the university\u2019s \u201csecret weapon\u201d according to him—\u201cHe explained that we must be about win-win partnerships and that he looks to alumni for ideas and opportunities to find these partnerships,\u201d said Monique Catoggio<\/strong> (EMBA \u201903), director, advancement, alumni and corporate relations.<\/p>\n

Notion of community involvement resonates with Shedd.<\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cThat day, he was going to a failing school in north Miami-Dade to see what FIU can do to help,\u201d said Shedd, who is president of Miami-Dade County Municipal Clerks Association. \u201cWe have a similar problem in Homestead and I am talking to our city manager and council to see what Homestead needs that FIU might be able to help with. Also, I can be a liaison with other city clerks in the area.\u201d<\/p>\n

According to Catoggio, \u201cHaving him in this private setting provided us with the opportunity to not only hear directly from him how important we are to the college and FIU as alumni, but also to have his ear on significant \u00a0issues that he is requesting to hear about and plans to act on.\u201d<\/p>\n

The event, held on August 13, 2009 in the Dean\u2019s Conference Room was the second program in a Leadership Forum series for Circle members.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
