the world, HBS alumni are using their leadership and problem-solving
skills to tackle education, health, environment, poverty, inequality,
and other challenges. In "Problem Solving: HBS Alumni Making a
Difference in the World," Howard Stevenson and co-authors Russ Banham
and Shirley Spence highlight the many ways that alumni are taking
action as corporate leaders, social entrepreneurs, nonprofit
professionals, public servants, generous philanthropists, and good
citizens quietly contributing to their communities. Based on almost
four years of research, the book briefly reviews HBS's legacy of
social responsibility and describes the five problem-solving
strategies observed across more than 1,100 stories collected through
extensive interviews and research. Its 200-plus stories, brought
vividly to life with photos and quotes, provide a sampling of alumni
activities today and examples of social impact journeys over a
lifetime. Open to the Harvard University community. Copies of the book
will be available.
