Tuck's Center for Digital Strategies has added an RSS feed to their website so students and alumni can subscribe and receive updates on the latest Radio Tuck interviews.
Radio Tuck is a series of recorded conversations with industry leaders that you can listen to on the web via streaming audio or download as MP3 files to your desktop or iPod. Created in 2001 and sponsored by the center, Radio Tuck offers interviews that focus on the impact of technology on marketing, supply chain management, operations, and organizational change. The interviews are conducted by the center's MBA fellows, all second-year students.
Radio Tuck has more than 20 interviews in its library. Some focus on technology and a particular industry, while others cover technology-enabled business strategy as could be applied across industries.
The interviewers have made a point of talking with executives from both new and mature companies—including L.L. Bean, Bank of America, DirecTV, and Staples—to show the broad impact and application of technology in today's businesses. Recent interviews include such Tuck alumni as Russell Wolff D'89, T'94, from ESPN International; Scott O'Hare T'86, from Dell; and Andrew Palmer T'94, from Infinity Pharmaceuticals. These conversations provide a unique opportunity for Tuck students to speak with senior executives who are shaping new digital strategies. Past topics include how IT has affected design and production in the automotive industry and how data integration and data mining have influenced branding efforts in the financial-services industry.
"Radio Tuck gives me the chance to talk to decision makers from a variety of industries about how they invest in technology and how they track the returns," says Dan McGuire T'06, a Radio Tuck interviewer.
