Spencer Burke, adjunct lecturer in family business for WashU Olin, will assume the role as Eugene F. Williams Jr. Executive in Residence for the Koch Center for Family Business, Dean Mark Taylor and Professor&＃160;Bart Hamilton&＃160;announced in May. The appointment is the latest development following&＃160;the spring 2018 announcement&＃160;of the Koch Center for Family Business, launched with the support of the St. Louis Koch family&＃8217;s gift $9 million. That center is the outgrowth of the&＃160;Olin family business program, funded with a $1.09 million donation from the Kochs in 2016. The Olin family business initiative began to &＃8220;educate future business leaders on unique family business issues while providing resources for family enterprise as they grapple with these challenges.&＃8221; Prior to accepting this position, Burke served as the leader of the family business initiative and has been the organizer and moderator of Olin&＃8217;s highly successful annual family business symposium. He is a principal at the St. Louis Trust Company, where he leads the firm&＃8217;s family business advisory practice. Additionally, Burke currently serves as chairman of the board of the Mallinckrodt Foundation, which seeks to fund biomedical research in St. Louis and throughout the United States. I have taught at Olin for eight or nine years and I am excited to no longer be the lone ranger in family business. &＃160; Spencer Burke He will now join a team at the Koch center&＃8212;led by Hamilton, the&＃160;center&＃8217;s inaugural director, Olin&＃8217;s Robert Brookings Smith Distinguished Professor of Economics, Management & Entrepreneurship&＃8212;that will help to tackle family business education. Burke also feels that that through the establishment of the Koch center and the family business initiative, the subject matter is being recognized as an important part of Olin Business School. While in the position, he wants to be a part of the team that animates the important role of family business in the U.S. economy. Much like the mission of the Olin family business initiative, Burke places importance on business sustainability. Along with the other key players in the family business center, Burke will be the resident practitioner of family business issues. As the executive in residence, he will be available for consultation at the request of students and will also be establishing office hours for the upcoming semester. He is excited for the opportunity to have more interaction with students in the family business program. This will allow for valuable, real-time analysis and problem solving in relation to real-life family business issues that students encounter. Burke feels that through more interaction, the program will achieve even greater success.
