Lemann Professor nominated young global leader

The World Economic Forum (WEF) recently nominated Tarun Khanna, an authority on strategy and emerging markets and Harvard Business School’s Jorge Paulo Lemann Professor, as a Young Global Leader 2007. Bestowed annually, the honor recognizes a group of 250 top leaders in business, government, academia, and the media – all under the age of 41 – for “their professional accomplishments, their commitment to society, and their potential to contribute to shaping the future of the world.” This year’s group was chosen from a pool of more than 4,000 candidates.
