Good Ones: Back to School at Study - A Little Bit About a Lot of Things A Little Bit About a Lot of Things

July 9, 2015 Good Ones: Back to School at Study

The Good Ones met up last week in Cambridge at Study for a back to school themed party. The Kendall Square hot spot is a sister restaurant to the Ames Street Deli, Journeyman and Backbar.

I always love seeing how guests interpret the suggested attire. Matthew Tambiah always comes dressed to impress – see some of his other outfits here.

A Good Ones membership comes with access to three events per month and you are invited to bring one complimentary guest to each of those events. Membership is carefully curated – these are people you want to get to know – they’re mentors students, entrepreneurs, foodies and travel enthusiasts (among others). The conversation will always be interesting!

Each event has a featured guest, tonight’s was Donald Sull, a global expert on strategy and execution in turbulent markets. He is a Senior Lecturer at the MIT Sloan School of Management and was formerly a Professor of Strategy and Entrepreneurship at the London Business School, where he won three teaching awards. He is a three time Harvard grad. He has published three award-winning books, ten best-selling Harvard Business Review articles, and over 100 case studies, articles, and book chapters on strategy and execution in turbulent markets. The Economist identified his theory of active inertia as an idea that shaped business management over the past century and Fortune listed him among the ten new management gurus.

Sam Treadway, co-owner and manager of Backbar and Ames Street Deli was holding down the bar. Check out this cool video of Sam at a recent competition.

As expected, the cocktails were impressive.

The 5th year potions drink was a popular choice, such a fun presentation!
