Douglas W. Branson, a nationally known expert in corporate law, will speak in the Law Center Auditorium Thursday, Sept. 20, at noon.
Branson will discuss his latest book, No Seat at the Table: How Corporate Governance and the Law Keep Women Out of the Boardroom (2006).
In No Seat at the Table, he examines why more women than ever are earning MBA degrees, yet continue to struggle to attain to high-level positions in corporate America. Branson’s book analyzes real-life cases and relies heavily on empirical evidence.
Branson is the W. Edward Sell Professor of Business Law at the University of Pittsburgh. He was formerly a professor at the Seattle University School of Law for more than 20 years. He is also the author of Forensic Social Work: Legal Aspects of Professional Practice (2000) and Understanding Corporate Law (1999.)
He earned a B.A. from the University of Notre Dame, a J.D. from Northwestern University, and a master of law degree from the University of Virginia.
