Business, Government & Society Conference

Tuck’s Business, Government & Society Conference (BGSC) has been a leading graduate student-run forum on sustainability and socially responsible business since 2002. It serves as a platform for conversation between current and future business leaders about the social externalities facing organizations in today’s global economy. The BGSC is the largest student-run event hosted by Tuck, and it is attended by a majority of our student body as well as business leaders from around the world.

The theme for this year's conference is: 2050: Building the world we'll lead. Population growth, increased life expectancy, and new technologies will create drastically different challenges for us to face when we are senior leaders in business, government, and society. What perennial challenges must we better understand? What new challenges must we be preparing to face? And how do we ensure we’re ready?

The Healthsouth Fraud—A Case of Ethical Malpractice

Plenty of speakers share what they've done right in order to inspire and motivate. How many share what they've done wrong? Weston Smith will share the many decisions he has made in life—the good and the bad—with accountability, humility, humor, and the determination to encourage others to simply practice ethical leadership in all walks of life. He was once CFO of the Fortune 500 company, HealthSouth Corporation. The company became a Wall Street darling, as within a dozen years of inception it grew from one location to over two thousand in all fifty states and five countries. However, underneath the glimmering corporate office, the fleet of corporate jets, and “consistent” earnings reports, laid a multi-year multi-billion dollar financial statement fraud. Ultimately, he voluntarily came forward and exposed the fraud and accepted responsibility for his actions.
