Mayor Bloomberg and a former New York Giants star, Tiki Barber, introduced award winners last night at the Harvard Business School Club of New York’s 41st annual Leadership Dinner.
This year’s honorees included the mayor of Newark, Cory Booker, who received the Leadership Award; the president of Vornado Realty Trust, Michael Fascitelli, who received the Business Statesman of the Year Award, and the managing partner of T2 Partners LLC, Whitney Tilson, who received the John Whitehead Social Enterprise Award. Messrs. Fascitelli and Tilson are both graduates of Harvard Business School, while Mr. Booker earned his law degree from Yale University.
Money raised from the dinner is being used to fund a variety of nonprofit initiatives run by the Harvard Business School Club of New York, such as scholarships, pro bono legal consulting, and community service programs.
