After finding 40%+ of students not knowing how or not wanting to enter their degreed field, I ended up developing self-assessment tools and curriculum to address the gap. (This laid the foundation for my Successful Careers initiative).Due to continual process improvement, within 7 semesters I had developed the program to include developing relationships and leveraging business leaders for panel style mock interviews for students, which morphed into an incredible networking event, identifying program advisors and improved student placement by over 30%.Developed curriculum and provided instruction for graduate & undergraduate courses to a highly diverse business student population.
