GROVE CITY, Pa. – The Grove City College Department of Entrepreneurship’s 2006-07 Visionary Entrepreneurship Speakers Series will conclude with alumnus entrepreneur Dr. Tim Habbershon, speaking on “Enterprising Families: The Greatest and Most Enduring Entrepreneur” at 7 p.m. April 11 in Sticht Lecture Hall in the Hall of Arts and Letters.
Habbershon, a 1981 graduate of Grove City College, is the founding director of the Institute for Family Enterprising in the Arthur M. Blank Center for Entrepreneurship at Babson College in Massachusetts. He holds the President’s Term Chair in Family Enterprising and is a founder and principal in The TELOS Group, which specializes in transition and strategy consultations to enterprising families.
Habbershon joined Babson with extensive experience as an institutional entrepreneur, having established numerous higher education programs and centers. He works with large family business groups worldwide, delivering executive education and personal consultations on subjects such as strategic thinking, long-run wealth creation, organizational restructuring, consensus building, family relationships and multigenerational leadership empowerment.
Prior to his time at Babson, Habbershon was the founding director of the Wharton Enterprising Families Initiative at the Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania. There, he developed the conceptual framework for family enterprising that creates a nexus between entrepreneurship and family-based business.
Habbershon’s research on family enterprising has appeared in numerous articles in academic journals including “Family Business Review” and “Journal of Business Venturing,” and he has presented his work at conferences nationally and internationally.
The lecture is free and open to the public. No tickets are required.
