I don't often share personal updates here, but I feel compelled to reflect on my recent 15th(!) Harvard Business School reunion. It might sound cliché, but this weekend was a poignant reminder of the power of enduring friendships and lifelong connections.   It was remarkable to reunite with classmates, picking up conversations right where we left off—regardless of the years that have passed – and hearing about their inspiring achievements in family life, personal growth, and professional endeavors (in that order!).   Until the next one, and I hope to see many of you much earlier!!!   #HBS #Classof2009 #LifelongLearning
