Stags in Management, co-hosted with the Management Consulting Club

Join us for a special edition of Stags in Management (co-hosted with the Management Consulting Club), featuring an interactive fireside chat with members of the Management Advisory Council. Unlike our traditional networking-focused format, this event will begin with a moderated conversation to give you deeper insight into leadership journeys, career pivots, and emerging management trends.

Our featured speakers include:

• Marisa Bartning, Head of Mountain Dew Brand, Pepsi
• Daniel DePonte, President & Chief Executive Officer, RNWBL
• Kara Gustafson, President, RBC Foundation USA

Panel Moderator:

• Ainsley Eaton, President, Management Consulting Club

During the fireside chat, our alumni leaders will share candid reflections on their career paths, decision points, and lessons learned in management roles across industries. Following the discussion, we will open the floor for Q&A and conclude with informal networking, giving you the opportunity to build connections and continue the conversation.

Whether you are exploring potential career paths in management or looking to expand your professional network, this event offers a meaningful opportunity to engage with accomplished alumni in a more personal and conversational setting.

Don’t miss this chance to gain perspective, ask thoughtful questions, and connect with leaders who once sat where you are today.
