Each company profiled here has its own special methods of elevating morale and team spirit to new heights, but one thing that is common among all of them is a commitment to the concept that employees’ well-being directly impacts a company’s well-being—in the eyes of the public, its business partners, customers and shareholders.

  • From the Director Jeffrey M
    The Robert C. McDermond Center for Management & Entrepreneurship The January 2017 From The Director Jeffrey M. Gropp, Ph.D. It is my sincere honor to introduce myself as the director of Management Fellows at DePauw University. I have always had profound respect and genuine appreciation for this program. Nevertheless, my appreciation for the program has only grown over the past semester. I thought I understood the value proposition of the program, but I have learned that it is not just the internship or speaker series that creates this value. The true value of this program lies in the relationships that are developed. Such development occurs across a wide spectrum of interactions, including the personal relationships developed between students, faculty, engaged alumni and the exceptional McDermond Center staff, Sandy Smith and Sarah Miller. I have witnessed students reaching out to our alumni for a variety of purposes and have witnessed the universally thoughtful responses of our DePauw network. From the humility of a CEO or managing partner that responds to the request of juniors and sophomores, to the graciousness of other alumni that have generously given up their time to push our students to enhance their interview skills by performing mock interviews. I have been astonished by the maturity and foresight of our students to reach out to others for help and the willingness of DePauw alumni responding to those that seek assistance. In short, it has been my pleasure to serve this program. We have been quite busy over the last few months. Our new student ambassador group has been tasked with assisting the program’s Recruiting at DECA recruitment efforts, programming and social events, and serving as representatives of the program.

ORLANDO, ) ) Plaintiff, ) ) No. 06 C 3758 v. ) ) Magistrate Judge Cox UNITED OF OMAHA LIFE ) INSURANCE COMPANY, a Nebraska ) corporation, ) ) Defendant. ) DEFENDANT’S MEMORANDUM IN SUPPORT OF ITS MOTION FOR A DECLARATION OF THE STANDARD OF REVIEW Defendant, UNITED OF OMAHA LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY (“United of Omaha”), by its attorneys, Michael J. Smith and Warren von Schleicher, hereby submits its Memorandum in Support of its Motion for a Declaration of the Standard of Review: INTRODUCTION The plaintiff, John Orlando (“Orlando”), seeks to recover disability benefits under an ERISA governed employee welfare benefit plan (“Plan”) sponsored by his employer, West Monroe Partners, LLC (“West Monroe”). The Plan was established by terms of Group Policy GLTD-86F9 issued to West Monroe by United of Omaha. Group Policy GLTD-86F9 was issued with a Rider that states “This rider is made a part of Group Policy GLTD-86F9.” The Rider further states “This rider is effective January 1, 2003,” which also is the effective date of Group Policy GLTD-86F9. A copy of Group Policy GLTD-86F9 and the Rider (collectively, “Group Policy”) is attached to Defendant’s Appendix as Exhibit A. The Group Policy, in its Rider, contains clear language granting discretionary authority to United of Omaha. Where, as here, the Group Policy contains clear discretionary language, the applicable standard of judicial review is the “arbitrary and capricious” standard. Under this standard, the court essentially sits as a court of appeals and evaluates whether the administrator’s benefit determination was reasonable and permissible, or arbitrary and capricious.

Today that search continues at an accelerating pace, driven forward by increasing worldwide demand and the emergence of promising new technologies. Around the world, there is a growing spirit of cooperation between nations and individuals to realize the potential that these technologies hold for delivering clean, sustainable energy. Together, we seek to meet the needs of our children and secure the environment for generations to come. Advanced Energy 2016 brings together leaders from every area of energy development in order to stimulate the cross-disciplinary cooperation that will ultimately lead to the breakthroughs of tomorrow. As New York State’s premier energy conference, Advanced Energy 2016 would like to recognize the dedicated efforts the State has made, under the leadership of Governor Andrew M. Cuomo, toward advancing energy-related research and business. Reforming the Energy Vision (REV) is the Governor’s comprehensive strategy for encouraging smarter energy choices among consumers, stimulating the development of energy-related products and services, creating business opportunities and jobs, and protecting the environment. Together with other State-sponsored initiatives, such as START-UP NY and the Business Incubator and Innovation Hotspot programs, REV confirms New York’s leadership role in advancing energy-related technologies and businesses. We must also recognize our major conference sponsors for their generosity and demonstrated commitment to the future of the energy sector.
