The John F. Fiedler-BorgWarner Endowed Chair in Global Business Studies was established at Kent State University’s College of Business Administration and Graduate School of Management in 2003 by John F. Fiedler, former chief executive, and the BorgWarner Corporation. The John F. Fiedler-BorgWarner Endowed Chair provides a focus on global business matters for both the Kent academic community and regional interests. This is accomplished by bringing an experienced corporate executive to the Kent State campus to instruct students, and to participate in and direct programs designed to enhance the importance of global business studies. Twice yearly, the John F. Fiedler-BorgWarner Endowed Chair invites distinguished speakers to address significant global business issues and topics.
