The Boca Raton Executive Club Welcomes Lynn University's President, Dr. Kevin M. Ross as the November 7th Keynote Speaker!


You joined the rest of the viewing world as Barack Obama and Mitt Romney dueled in the final and crucial Presidential Debate right here at Lynn University in Boca Raton. Find out how this 50 year old institution of higher learning earned the privilege to host this prestigious event. Join Dr. Kevin M. Ross, President of Lynn University, as he shares his unique insight into the debate and the growth of the university during our next meeting of the Boca Raton Executive Club...

Dr. Kevin M. Ross became the fifth president of Lynn University on July 1, 2006. He succeeded his father, Dr. Donald E. Ross who founded Wilmington College, Wilmington, Del. in 1967 before becoming Lynn's president at the age of 32. During his 35 years as president, he led the school from a two-year Catholic women's college on the brink of bankruptcy to a thriving university with a distinct international character.

Like his father, Dr. Kevin Ross took leadership of the university at a young age: 33, having held numerous administrative positions in educational institutions, including Lynn. Early in his career, Dr. Ross served as admissions officer and associate director of admissions at two independent schools, The Hill School (Pottstown, Pa.) and Avon Old Farms School (Avon, Conn.). His first higher education post was assistant to the president of Wilmington College (Wilmington, Del.).

Dr. Ross came to Lynn in 1999 as associate dean of the Eugene M. and Christine E. Lynn College of International Communication, where he facilitated installation of its state-of-the-art broadcast journalism curriculum, studios and equipment.

Dr. Ross also served as director of special projects, director of development and vice president of institutional advancement before being named chief operating officer (COO) in 2004.

As COO, Dr. Ross initiated and oversaw completion of Lynn's long-range strategic plan with the aid of the late Dr. George Keller, noted higher education strategic planning expert and author of Academic Strategy: The Management Revolution in American Higher Education. The long-range plan, titled Lynn 2020, provides a blueprint for developing Lynn University over 15 years. Six years into Dr. Ross' presidency-and as the university celebrates its 50th year-many of the plan's major initiatives have come, or are well on their way, to fruition (see "Key Achievements" page).
Dr. Ross earned his B.A. degree in English in 1994 from Colgate University and his M.A. degree in Liberal Arts in 1997 at St. John's College (Annapolis, Md.) He received his doctorate in higher education leadership and policy from Peabody College of Vanderbilt University. His dissertation topic was Bridging the Gap: A Multi-Case Study of the Adoption and Implementation of Instructional Technology in Higher Education.
He has served on the Literacy Coalition of Palm Beach County's board of directors. He is currently serving on the Greater Boca Raton Chamber of Commerce Board of Directors as treasurer, the Advisory Panel of the Literacy Coalition of Palm Beach County, the Gulf Stream School Board of Trustees and the Millennium Campus Network Board of Directors. He is also the current Sunshine State Athletics Conference President.
Join Boca Raton's premier networking organization! For the November 7th meeting, we will be meeting in the Terrace Restaurant, across from the Grande Ballroom at Woodfield Country Club in Boca Raton and begin at 12:00 noon and run until 1:30 pm.
A buffet luncheon will be served during the meeting for the cost of $20.00 for members and $35.00 for non-members. To RSVP or find out more on becoming a member, please contact Michelle Clubb via email at MClubb@Koolik.com.

Subway Development Corporation's CEO, Larry Feldman to be Keynote Speaker at Wednesday's Boca Raton Executive Club Meeting

Last month’s meeting with Miami Dolphin’s CEO, Mike Dee had a great turn out with over 70 attendees! We are looking forward to our upcoming October 3rd meeting with serial entrepreneur, attorney, lecturer and philanthropist, Mr. Lawrence Feldman.

When you want to build a successful franchise operation, put one of the country’s leading success stories at the helm – Lawrence Feldman. Mr. Feldman brings with him over three decades of distinguished years of franchise experience as Chief Executive Officer of Subway Development Corporation based in McLean, Virginia and as CEO of Subway of South Florida. In addition, Mr. Feldman was co-creator of Hair Color Xperts, a franchise established to develop specialized cut and color salons throughout the country. Previously, Mr. Feldman served as the CEO of Strategic Franchise Solutions, a sought after specialized consulting firm, designed to assist entrepreneurs in bringing their business dreams to the marketplace.

A lawyer by training, his fast-track government career included Legislative Counsel to Congressman Stewart McKinney of Connecticut, Minority Counsel for the U.S. House of Representatives, Banking Committee’s Subcommittee on Economic Stabilization and Assistant General Counsel to the Full Banking and Currency Committee of the U.S. House of Representatives, in Washington, DC. He then followed with a bold entrepreneurial move by opening his first Subway location in the Capital Hill area, as an absentee investment. He then added franchise development contracts for Washington, Virginia, Maryland and Delaware. It all culminated for Mr. Feldman in the creation of Subway Development Corporation of Washington, listed today as one of the country’s leading franchise operations, by Entrepreneur Magazine. This year Mr. Feldman will be celebrating over 35 years in the Subway franchise business as well as approaching the opening of his 1200th franchise restaurant in his Northern development territory with an additional 280 restaurants in South Florida.

A 1999 Ernst & Young “Entrepreneur of the Year” nominee, Mr. Feldman continues to receive awards for his business and philanthropic endeavors, including winner of the Washington Business Journal Philanthropy Award for Small Business and the Smart CEO Magazine Award for Excellence in Philanthropy. Mr Feldman and his wife, Diane were recently honored as the recipients of the Ruth and Norman Rales Humanitarian of the Year Award.

Boca Raton Executive Club Meetings Will Resume September 5th With Miami Dolphin's CEO, Mike Dee As Keynote Speaker!

A new, exciting season has arrived for the Boca Raton Executive Club! You will not want to miss our first meeting on September 5th featuring the Miami Dolphin's CEO; Mike Dee. Mike will share with us his fascinating experiences as a veteran sports team executive, successful entrepreneur and philanthropist.

Mike Dee was named Chief Executive Officer of the Miami Dolphins and Sun Life Stadium by Stephen M. Ross on May 3, 2009. Dee came to South Florida and the NFL after a distinguished 15-year career in Major League Baseball, where he played a lead role in the resurgence of two franchises and was a member of two World Series Championship teams.

Since joining the Dolphins, Dee has laid out the three fundamental commitments that guide the franchise during the Ross ownership era: 1) To assemble a sound, smart, and tough football team that consistently competes for championships; 2) To consistently strive to enhance the fan experience at Sun Life Stadium and aggressively market the team to a broad region and diverse fan base; and 3) To be active participants in the community.

Dee has spearheaded the team's efforts to live up to these commitments. In order to grow the club's fan base, he created a series of programs in the western and central regions of the state and worked tirelessly to improve the game-day experience for the team's fans by implementing a host of technological, entertainment, and culinary innovations that has made the atmosphere at Dolphins home games unique in the NFL. On the business side, Dee finalized a ground-breaking naming rights deal for the stadium with Sun Life Financial, revamped and improved the club's broadcast and internet platforms, and developed a series of customized programs designed to enhance the team's relationship with its business partners. Dee also places a strong emphasis on the club's community relations efforts, having introduced a host of new charitable initiatives, including the team's annual blood drive and the Dolphins Cycling Challenge, which raised more than $1 million for South Florida's Sylvester Comprehensive Cancer Center in just two years.

After beginning his sports career in San Diego with the Padres (1995-2002), Dee followed his mentor, CEO Larry Lucchino, to Boston and assumed the role of Executive Vice President of Business Affairs for the Red Sox. He was promoted to Chief Operating Officer in 2004, a position he held until his departure to join the Dolphins. During his tenure in Boston, the Red Sox won two World Series titles and set franchise records for attendance and revenue each year - including an MLB record for consecutive sellouts dating back to 2003. Other noteworthy achievements while in Boston include bringing annual concerts to Fenway Park and directing the expansion of the team's business and real estate interests that stemmed from the eight-year renovation of Fenway Park and the surrounding neighborhood. Dee also has a history of working in the Sunshine State, having consummated a 30-year agreement with Lee County Florida to build the Red Sox a publicly-financed Spring Training facility that opened in 2012.

Dee also served as President of Fenway Sports Group, a company that he created in 2004 under the direction of Red Sox owners John Henry and Tom Werner. An enterprise charged with diversifying the business interests of the Red Sox beyond baseball, FSG developed a wide array of endeavors across the sports and media landscape. In February, 2007, FSG acquired a 50% interest in Roush Racing and formed what is known today as Roush Fenway Racing, NASCAR's largest race team. Dee served on the board of Roush Fenway as a Managing Director, during which time the team won two notable championships: Carl Edwards' 2007 Busch Series Championship and Matt Kenseth's Daytona 500 victory in February 2009.

Outside of his work for the Dolphins, Dee is active in the philanthropic community, serving on the board of the Miami Children's Museum, the Sylvester Comprehensive Cancer Center, and the Pan Mass Challenge. To date, the Pan Mass Challenge - an annual Boston-based cycling event - has raised more than $260 million for cancer research. Dee is an avid cyclist and rides in the event each August.

Dee attended Franklin & Marshall College in Lancaster, Pennsylvania, where he played basketball and earned a degree in government. He currently serves on the Advisory Board at F&M. Dee and his wife, Karen, have two sons, Spencer (12) and Tommy (10).

Award Winning Single Story Custom Home in Foxe Chase - Delray Beach, Florida!

$1,495,000


Extraordinary single story custom designed residence with bright open plan in the serene yet centric setting of Foxe Chase. Boasting 4 Bedrooms plus home office or convertible 5th bedroom, 4 full baths plus guest / half bath, family room, breakfast room, huge porch overlooking secluded expansive private yard with rare heavy canopy of hundred year mature live oak trees, dramatic cathedral ceilings with rich wood trim and skylights that bring the outside in, custom designed details everywhere, large formal dining room, gourmet kitchen, Jerusalem stone flooring throughout, custom built ins, oversized three car garage with custom built ins and storage room, 1.38 acre lot with incredible views and room to expand everywhere!

The architect's principal intent was to integrate the home to the beautiful natural landscape as much as possible and live intimately with it, since from the beginning it was the natural landscape that he fell in love with when he bought the property. To that end, extensive use of glass brings the outside into the house, and through the use of the same Jerusalem stone on the floor inside the home as well as outside, it makes it purposely more difficult to distinguish the outside from the inside. Views of the beautiful landscape from inside the house are amplified by glass not only at eye level but also from above through the sloping windows which allow you to see the canopy of the huge trees and feel a greater kinship with them.

Noble materials that they are, wood and stone were extensively used which, in addition to being beautiful, make maintenance an easy matter, the stones having been sealed. The same holds true for the landscaping, with the use of easy to care indigenous plants throughout.
 
The home was designed around the landscape and not a single oak tree was disturbed, although seven palm trees were removed and replanted elsewhere. One of the main landscape design criteria also was to block the views to the neighbors as much as possible, and, indeed, views towards the neighbors are almost nonexistent from anywhere inside or outside the house.

Iain Calder - Keynote Speaker at the June 6th Boca Raton Executive Club Meeting

Join The Boca Raton Executive Club on June 6th in welcoming Woodfield resident and former Editor-in-Chief & President of The National Enquirer, Iain Calder as the keynote speaker. During Calder's 36 years with The National Enquirer, circulation soared from approximately 700,000 per week to a peak of almost 5 million - changing the face of American journalism! The meeting will take place in the Grande Ballroom at Woodfield Country Club and starts at 12:00 noon.

Iain Calder was born in Scotland and joined the National Enquirer in 1964 as London Bureau Chief. After almost 36 years with the company, during which he served as Editor in Chief, President and later CEO/Chairman, he left in 2000. During this time he saw circulation soar from about 700,000 per week to a peak of almost 5 million. Magazines edited by Calder have sold a total of over 4 billion copies - probably an American record.

He has lectured all over North America including Universities ranging from UC Berkeley to FAU. At the invitation of Nancy Reagan he also spoke at the Reagan Library. In the mid-nineties, he was chosen by the NEWSEUM in D.C. as one of the 500 most influential journalists in the history of the U.S. His autobiography, published in 2004, outlines how the ENQUIRER broke hundreds of major exclusive stories and photos - and how he rubbed shoulders with hundreds of the most famous celebrities from Jimmy Carter, Donald Trump, Bob Hope and Billy Graham to John Kennedy jr., Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher, Jerry Lewis and Dolly Parton. He has been interviewed on every TV network by the likes of Mike Wallace, Katie Couric, Ted Koppel and Geraldo Rivera and featured in just about every major American magazine and newspaper.

To find out more about the upcoming meeting and to reserve a spot, contact the Executive Director, Michelle Clubb at MClubb@Koolik.com or 561-245-4609.

On May 2nd, Morton E. Handel will share his vast and varied corporate experiences with The Boca Raton Executive Club. Seats will fill up fast!

While with Marvel, Mr. Handel helped orchestrate its sale to Walt Disney for $4 billion in a blockbuster Hollywood deal which put Marvel’s 5,000 characters to work for Disney in a union considered at the time to be one of the largest US corporate transactions of the year. It marked a stunning turnaround for Marvel, originally a comic book company, which filed for bankruptcy in 1996 under heavy debts as it faced a slump in comic book sales.
