On November 24-26, 2014, NAS partnered with the United States Consulate Sao Paulo and SESC Sao Paulo to present a three-day program in Sao Paulo, Brazil for senior cultural leaders from around Brazil. The program focused on strategy and strategic innovation and was led by NAS faculty Dr. Violina Rindova and Dr. Robert Wiltbank. They also led a half-day session for emerging leaders from across Brazil. Approximately 110 leaders participated between both groups. On November 27, 2014, NAS Director Fielding Grasty led a session with the emerging leaders group, discussing similarities and differences in current trends affecting the Brazilian and US cultural sectors.
This was NAS’ first program in Latin America. In 2014, we’ve presented custom programs in Brazil, Hong Kong and Oman. It was great to share leadership ideas and experiences with colleagues around the globe and we look forward to the New Year!
