December 3 , 2003

The 2003 Executive Recruiting Reception, was again held at the Rainier Club in downtown Seattle. As with last year it was a huge success. This annual event has been developed to give prospective students an opportunity to interact with alumni, current students and faculty in an intimate and festive atmosphere.

Our guest speaker this year was Lisa Stevens, CEO of Paizo Publishing, LLC. and Regional EMBA class of 1999 alumna. Lisa shared her experience of working with Wizards of the Coast in it's early years and how as the company grew she saw the need for a formal business education. With the knowledge gained from the Executive MBA Program and her entrepreneurial spirit, Lisa has been able to venture into new businesses. At the end of her presentation Lisa mentioned her lasted endeavor, a new restaurant!

Please take a few minutes to view the pictures below. We look forward to seeing you next year!
