Stanford GSB
Dear -,

We’re proud to highlight the Stanford Graduate School of Business LOWkeynotes Program and the 25+ students who developed a presentation on an idea that embodies the school’s motto — to change lives, organizations, and the world. Watch students present their ideas to the GSB community.

Our faculty are also sharing interesting research and revelations. Brian Lowery, the Walter Kenneth Kilpatrick Professor of Organizational Behavior, argues that identity is not a personal possession but a product of social interaction. Learn more about what his research teaches us about ourselves.

Students Share Innovative Ideas in LOWkeynotes Presentations 

The LOWkeynotes program provides students with an opportunity to develop and practice a nine-minute presentation about an idea they think could change lives, change organizations, and change the world. With topics ranging from the future of transportation and energy to managing digital childhoods and redefining beauty, these LOWkeynotes presentations offered revelatory findings and thoughtful solutions to world problems.
