Dear Members of the Bentley Community,

I’m pleased today to announce that Michael Johnson-Cramer, D.B.A, the founding director and former interim dean of the Freeman College of Management at Bucknell University, has been named as the new Dean of Business and the McCallum Graduate School at Bentley. The appointment follows a nationwide search by a committee of faculty and staff from across the university and will take effect on July 1.

When NFL legend Drew Bledsoe retired from football to open his own winery, he took a lot of lessons from the field to the vineyard, such as the importance of keeping a great team around him and knowing when he should ask for more help.

But the biggest surprise? Game-time decisions that don’t have an immediate result. As he told members of the Bentley Executive Club, a group of Boston-area alumni and parents, “A lot of the decisions we make, we won’t know how they will work out for a decade.”
