About our Speaker:

President Tim Cost, a 1981 Magna Cum Laude Jacksonville University graduate, received his MBA in Finance and Economics from the William E. Simon School of Business at the University of Rochester, and is a graduate of Harvard University’s Presidential Seminar. As a collegiate athlete and four-year letterman on the JU baseball team, he is one of the top 10 winningest pitchers in JU Baseball and, as a freshman in his first NCAA appearance, pitched the only 9-inning no-hitter in JU history.

Since the days of baseball and business degrees, President Cost has invested more than 30 years on senior management teams at several of the world’s largest and best-known institutions, including Bristol-Myers Squibb, Kodak, ARAMARK, Pharmacia, Wyeth/Pfizer, and Centocor/Johnson & Johnson,as well as his past service as Chairman of Global Health Care for Washington-based consulting firm, APCO Worldwide . Each role helped refine his approach to leadership, capitalizing on the strengths of diverse teams to maximize talent, trust, connections, and performance. President Cost is committed to helping mentor young talent, and likes to explain that process as "inspiring the good to be great."
