The Filene Research Institute is working on releasing a report on its summer fellowship program targeting MBA students to attract young, innovative thinkers to the industry.
Among those who taught in this program were Parsons; Albertson; Bloomfield; Bloomfield's wife, Sylvia; and his cousin Therese Weil Filene (Brewer, 1942; Ross, 2003).
What an Edward Filene could learn through a yearly vacation tour of Europe and conversation with a circle of friends (the nucleus of the think tank he set up to look at the world and do research that would help him and other business people "discover and understand all the forces, local, national, and international, that promised to react upon and determine future business conditions") is no longer enough.
