Inaugurated in 2007, the Suffolk MBA Boardroom Leadership Scholars Program annually recognizes sixteen graduating students in the Suffolk MBA Programs.

These are students who have not only distinguished themselves in the classroom, but also exhibit a clear understanding of what it takes to be a leader in today’s global business environment.

Those selected for this honor, receive the opportunity of a lifetime to meet in a boardroom setting for two hours to discuss global leadership with a nationally renowned business executive.

The 2009 Boardroom Leader is Ms. Micho Spring, President of Weber-Shandwick Worldwide/New England Office and Chair of their U.S. Corporate Practice.

Weber Shandwick is a global public relations and communications leader. Across an expansive global network of public relations practitioners, their award-winning communications teams bring to every engagement an unrelenting client focus, a passion for their clients’ businesses, innovative and creative strategies and a commitment to measurable results.

With a career spanning over two decades, Ms. Spring brings an unparalleled mix of experience and enthusiasm to her leadership at Weber Shandwick.  A brief list of her accomplishments include:

• Named multiple times to Top 20 Most Powerful Women in Boston by Boston Magazine
• Recipient of a Lifetime Achievement Award from the Greater Boston Chamber of Commerce’s Women’s Network
• Frequent independent media commentator
• 6 years President and CEO of Boston Telecommunications Company
