#311 - Exit Interview: The Last Odyssey

06/06/19 • 31 min

In this episode, Marjace and Sheela sign off from Business Beyond Usual with an exit interview featuring fellow recent MBA grad Kashay Sanders, who has been described as “one of the most quotable people at Michigan Ross.” We agree!

The group reflects on their MBA education, what they’ve learned about being leaders, the battle between intuition and the ‘should’, and what they’re excited about moving forward.

Business Beyond Usual will return in the fall with new episodes, and fresh crew of new and returning hosts and producers. Thank you for listening to season three! Stay tuned for more.

#310 - Three People. Two Conversations. One Wild Ride

Strap in, this is a wild one. In this episode, Marjace visits the offices of two Michigan Ross professors to talk about everything from marketing research and rebuilding old cars from scratch to algorithmically finding lead pipes in Flint, Michigan, and fronting a band with the craziest name you’ve ever heard.

You hear from a lot of students on this show about their experience and what it’s like to be in an MBA program. But you don’t hear a lot from the professors who make the educational part of the MBA experience so dynamic.

There are a lot of talented, respected, world-renowned professors at Michigan Ross. But what do they do in their free time? Turns out, quite a bit.
