Morolake Imoisili, one of the winning team members, said Tyler’s speech was what she needed to hear.
“He got me thinking about pushing myself after graduation,” Imoisili said. “While getting an MBA is an achievement, Mr. Tyler warned us to continue to push forward. Otherwise, we would revert back to our old ways and not achieve what we want.”
The luncheon was sponsored by The Willis Group, Bloomberg BusinessWeek, Regency Nursing and Rehabilitation Centers, and Mark Zafereo of Wells Fargo Advisors.
