SUMMARY:WLA/SCORE: SCORE Entrepreneurial Cohort (Session 5)

As the Founder and CEO of A Better Story Coaching\, Zucco’s mission is to support individuals and companies and help unlock the potential everyone has within. Her unique analytical thinking and foresight skills allow her to generate creative solutions to organizational challenges and long-term projects.

SUMMARY:WLA/WHS Scholarly Series: Innovation\, Disruption\, Revolution: The Impact of Technological Advancement — John Kao
DESCRIPTION:The Future of Innovation — John Kao\, Turing Fellow at Yale’s Digital Media Center \nIn the 17th year of Wilton Library and Wilton Historical Society’s collaboration\, the scholarly lecture series focuses on the theme of “Innovation\, Disruption\, Revolution: The Impact of Technological Advancement.” In this lecture\, John Kao presents a contemporary view of what innovation is\, where it is going\, and how advanced technology is reshaping its foundations. \nThe current state of innovation does not\, for the most part\, fit new business and societal realities. Innovation remains essential\, especially in these turbulent times. But\, to remain relevant\, evolution is necessary. Its very definition needs clarification and reimagination. The future of innovation is intimately entwined with the rapid advance of technology. Artificial Intelligence and ChatGPT\, innovation marketplaces\, and augmented reality are only some of the influences that will shape future innovation practices. And\, they raise the central question of how humans and machines will renegotiate the trade space for creativity\, entrepreneurship…and innovation. \nFor the past 25 years\, Kao worked with the ideas of innovation\, creativity\, entrepreneurship and leadership. Dubbed “Mr. Creativity” by The Economist\, his work is varied. This includes 14 years at Harvard Business School\, visiting appointments at the MIT Media Lab and attendance at the US Naval Postgraduate School\, among others. He also graced Hollywood\, Broadway\, the music industry\, politics and national security and Silicon Valley with his expertise. \nKao is currently the Turing Fellow at Yale’s Digital Media Center\, a Visiting Fellow at Yale Engineering School and a Yale entrepreneur-in-residence. He co-founded and is Chairman Emeritus of ThayerMahan\, Inc.\, a leader in maritime intelligence. With a BA and MD from Yale and a Harvard MBA\, Kao is also the author of Jamming and Innovation Nation: How America Is Losing Its Innovation Edge\, Why It Matters and What We Can Do To Get It Back. \nThis series is sponsored by Laureen Mody. The moderator is Max Gabrielson. A reception follows the talk and there is no charge to attend\, but donations are welcome. Visit the Wilton Library website for required registration as well as additional dates\, topics\, and speaker details. Call to register at 203.762.6334.

SUMMARY:Author Talk with Wilton First Selectman Toni Boucher: The Husky Effect
DESCRIPTION:Join Wilton Library on Friday evening\, Apr. 25\, for a special author talk program with Wilton’s First Selectman Toni Boucher as we celebrate the publication of her first book\, The Husky Effect: How UConn is Creating the Entrepreneurs of the Future\, a deeply personal story of entrepreneurship and ingenuity as well as a thoughtful exploration of the spirit of innovation that’s flourishing in the University of Connecticut School of Business\, inspired by the national champion UConn Huskies men’s and women’s basketball teams. \nIn The Husky Effect\, Boucher — a selectman\, former Connecticut state legislator\, executive\, and UConn School of Business alum — lays out a recipe for entrepreneurs of any age to reach for their dreams. Boucher explores the stories of her father\, who brought her family to the United States when she was a little girl\, and her late husband\, Bud\, both of whom\, despite risks and failures\, never gave up until they found success. That dogged determination and the incredible success of Bud’s businesses allowed Toni to name the Boucher Management and Entrepreneurship Department at the UConn School of Business in his honor. The Husky Effect is a deep dive into UConn’s innovative approaches to teaching entrepreneurship and the key figures who are reshaping the curriculum to emphasize hands-on experience\, emotional intelligence and a multidisciplinary approach. \nPraise for The Husky Effect \n“The Husky Effect takes readers inside the bold initiatives — cutting-edge\, hands-on learning in venture investing and groundbreaking research in entrepreneurship — that are equipping the next generation of trailblazers.”  — Greg Reilly\, Interim Dean\, UConn School of Business \nBoucher is serving her first four-year term as the first selectman of Wilton after a lengthy career in public service for the state of Connecticut\, including in the CT State Senate and CT House of Representatives. Boucher recently retired from her career in the private sector as director of a leading $30 billion asset management company. She has an MBA from UConn\, has founded several startups\, and is now helping the UConn School of Business grow its entrepreneurship and student-run investment programs. Toni is a 40-year resident of Wilton and has three children and six grandchildren. \nCopies of The Husky Effect will be available for purchase and signing after the program. \nRegistration for this program is requested. Register online or call 203.762.6334.
