Sixteen days until graduation! It is something that I truly cannot believe. It is a day that I'm looking forward to but I must say I've enjoyed every day leading up my MBA program's culmination. What matters is not how long it took me to complete the program but how did I take advantage of this time. How did I network with colleagues to nurture relationships to extend post graduation? How did I leverage my classroom knowledge in my internship? My answer: Maximized every second of the day.
See to me it is more than just the degree. It is about what you have truly gained from the program beyond just book knowledge. Of course, The Belk College armed me with the crucial marketing tools for my chosen career path. I have gained an extra level of confidence with this knowledge to be successful in upcoming career projects.
Also, The Belk College of Business has allowed me to push myself to "new" limits in a professional manner. I was once the individual who did not like networking events. However through encouragement and several meetings, I realized that my success depends on networking. Most importantly, I learned that comfort with networking comes with time and practice. So that is what I set out to accomplish. Now I am new born believer in networking!
Just a little snapshot as I reflect on the past two years. Happy weekend!
