On May 9, 1986, Ambassador Sue Cobb gave a 50th birthday gift to her husband, Ambassador Chuck Cobb. That gift was a $50,000 endowment gift to Miami Herbert Business School that would finance an annual lecture on leadership from one of America's most distinguished leaders.
Ambassador Sue Cobb's objective was that the Cobb Leadership Lecture would invite transformative public figures from all walks of life who were experts on leading. That objective has been fulfilled as the University of Miami students and faculty, as well as the greater Miami community have received superb lectures from some of this nation's most successful leaders.
