MBA students' book listed in Harvard Business Review reading list

A team of ten MBAs from the Desautels Faculty of Management worked with business author Christine Arena for eight months last year as part of an independent study for her new book The High Purpose Company: Why it Wins, How it Grows, and What Sets it Apart from the Fakes. The Harvard Business Review named the book in its famous Reading List for 2006. The book will be on shelves in the fall of 2006 (Collins Business).

The team of researchers, headed by Stephanie Berger, includes Jamie Wald, Ruchy Khurana, Louis Dagenais, Joy Bennett, Michelle Leggat, Jan Gora, Francie Dudeck, Stephanie Vanness and Catherine Tang. The independent study was supervised by David M. Lank.
