Co-Hosts Kyle Swanson (MPOD 9) and Sarah Spengler (MOD 6) have now hosted three conversations since starting First Friday in August. In essence the First Friday series is a great way to hear about the great work our alumni are doing in the world AND hear from Case Org Behavior faculty about their teaching and research work. In October we talked with JP Stephens, Ph.D. who is on faculty at Case and will be teaching in the MLOC program going forward. His origin story is captured in our conversation.
Find links to the recordings of our past conversations.
Upcoming guests include John Hildebrand, MPOD 19, Founder, Hildebrand Consulting, Anne Costello-McClain, MPOD 9, VP of Talent, L&D & Total Rewards for Magna International and Professor Emeritus, Ron Fry. Learn more in the Upcoming Events section.
About First Fridays:
The sessions are always on the First Friday of the month (except in January 2027 when we will be talking on January 8). We try to schedule our conversations for the lunch hour EST, but will vary depending on our guests’ availability.
Co-Hosts Kyle Swanson (MPOD 9) and Sarah Spengler (MOD 6) host conversations with the MOD, MPOD, MLOC alumni community AND hear from Case Org Behavior faculty about their teaching and research work.
