7 ways MBA programs have changed recently

7 ways MBA programs have changed recently You worked hard to earn your MBA, maybe even got it from one of the very top schools. So you are familiar with how they work. Even if your diploma is only 10 years old, a lot has changed since you walked across that graduation stage. I spoke with Paul Ollinger, a stand-up comedian, former Facebook West Coast sales vice president, and author of You Should Totally Get an MBA: A Comedian’s Guide to Top U.S. Business Schools who earned his MBA from Dartmouth’s Tuck School in 1997. As part of his writing, Ollinger researched the top 25 U.S. business schools and learned how much business school has changed in the past two decades. He cites several important differences between today’s MBA programs and those of 20 â€" or even 10 â€" years ago: 1. More women Top schools have made gender balance a huge priority, and the results are impressive: many are now recruiting classes that are more than 40 percent female. This is a meaningful bump over only the past two years (Stanford to more than 40 percent women, up from 35 percent in 2013), but a huge increase over 10 or 20 years ago. The University of Chicago, for example, has more than doubled the 20 percent of women in their class of 2001 to 42 percent for the class of 2016. (Note: this is still less than 50 percent!) 2. More global Today’s top MBA programs are more global than ever. Harvard Business School cites 35 percent international students, hailing from 87 different countries. The content of the curriculum has also become more global. Top schools mandate that a minimum percentage of cases taught in their courses pertain to business situations outside the United States. There is also a much broader selection of internships, consulting projects or study abroad at partner schools or their very own campuses (like University of Virginia’s learning residences in Brazil, India, China, and beyond). While these were an attractive academic option a few years ago, they are now a required part of many programs’ core curriculum. 3. More flexible Today, there are more choices in how one pursues the degree, including executive programs, accelerated one-year programs, distance learning, and MOOCs. What’s a MOOC? It’s a Massive Online Open Course that allows students from all over the world to study together. University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign is one of the first schools to offer an all-MOOC MBA, in partnership with the online education company Coursera. Yes, you can now get your MBA in your jammies. 4. More technology jobs In 1997, Ollinger was one of only three members of his graduating class to go to work in the internet business. Today, technology businesses like Amazon hire hundreds of MBAs around the world each year. Indeed, the technology industry comes in just behind investment banking and consulting in the number of MBAs it hires, which makes the bidding for these new graduates’ services more competitive than ever. 5. More technology-centric “A laptop was still a novelty when I was in school. We barely used e-mail, and Windows 95 was the major innovation,” says Ollinger. “Man, I feel old.” Today’s MBA graduates are digital natives â€" they were raised with the internet and e-mail. They joined Facebook when they were in high school. Snapchat makes sense to them. So it follows that these kinds of tools are an integral part of the MBA experience. Admissions officers might look at an applicant’s LinkedIn profile to see how she represents herself to the world, as might potential employers when deciding to hire an imminent MBA graduate. 6. More GMAT Ollinger took the GMAT (the standardized business school admission test taken by the vast majority of applicants) in June, 1994, the morning after the infamous O.J. Simpson police chase. In those days, the test was just reading comprehension and math. As part of his immersion into the world of an MBA applicant, he re-took the GMAT last summer (exhuming his antiquated knowledge of geometry from 1986) and learned that it now includes a broader set of evaluative assessments, measuring a candidate’s aptitude in analytical writing, integrated reasoning, and data sufficiency, the tools necessary to keep up in today’s fast-paced business environment. Ollinger reports a score that would not earn him admission to his alma mater, despite being a meta-legacy. 7. More options to pay For the most part, paying for an MBA is still a very expensive proposition, with annual tuition increases out-pacing inflation. Two years at Harvard Business School would cost you an estimated $141,000, not including foregone income. But last fall, Arizona State University bucked the system when they announced that their MBA program would be free. That’s right, two years worth of tuition = $0. Even if it’s not Harvard, that’s a pretty tough opportunity to pass up, if you can get in. Applications to the school have tripled over last year, making admission to ASU a real golden ticket.

Networking Script it out; just dont sound like a telemarketer - Hallie Crawford

Networking Script it out; just don’t sound like a telemarketer I was talking to my client Kellie recently about her job search. She had a few calls to make to prospective employers to follow up on her interviews. (Yes luckily, I’m finding recruiters are calling people again, and I have several clients out there going on interviews.) Kellie was nervous, she didn’t know what to say to them and didn’t want to choke up or sound unprofessional on the phone or on their voicemail. This is important, because the impression you make to these people can make a big difference in your search. You know how it is; we make impressions of people within the 1st five seconds of meeting them. So you want to do this correctly by sounding confident, professional and upbeat. Here are a few steps to help you make this happen: 1. First, determine what your goal is for your phone call. Do you want an answer from them? Do you just want to check in on something, let them know you’re still interested in their position, or are you asking for an informational interview? Decide what you want to achieve from this call and write it down. 2. Second, write down what you’d like to say ideally. Write every idea you have down, re-write it until it sounds good to you. 3. Third, say it out loud to yourself. How does it sound now that you’ve heard it out loud? Often words on paper don’t sound natural, or flow as well when we say them out loud. 4. Finally, edit your script until it sounds good to you out loud. Practice it a few times in the mirror. Then, when you’re ready to make the phone call, create two versions for yourself. One for if they pick up the phone, a second one if you have to leave a voicemail. Practice this enough times that when you say it, you don’t sound like a telemarketer. Make sure it flows out naturally and confidently. There is nothing wrong with scripting out what you want to say! It can make or break your performance, so why not do it? The good news is that you can use the same basics of your script over and over as part of your job search, so save it on your computer. Practice makes perfect. Try it out on your friends and family if you need to. Good luck! Job Search Coach P.S. If you need help with job search contact us for a complimentary consultation today.

I Wake Up at 345 A.M. and People Call My Daily Routine Truly Insane Heres Why You Should Follow It

I Wake Up at 345 A.M. and People Call My Daily Routine ‘Truly Insane’ â€" Here’s Why You Should Follow It Peter Shankman is the author of the new book “Faster Than Normal: Turbocharge Your Focus, Productivity, and Success with the Secrets of the ADHD Brain.” I’ve seen my future. Honestly, I have. It involves me, about 100 or more pounds heavier. It has me doing virtually no work of any value, while sinking further and further into a spiral of depression, sadness, shame, and anger. It involves fattening food, increasingly high blood sugar, elevated blood pressure, and more than likely issues with my liver thanks to drowning all of my feelings in alcohol, but at the same time, simultaneously smiling and not showing a hint of trouble to anyone on the outside. I’ve seen my future, and it ends with a whimper, not with a bang. Now, thanks to Doc Brown, we all know that anything we do in the past (now) can have tremendous effects on what happens in the future. (Remember, it was originally Twin Pines Mall until Marty ran over one of the pines in 1955…) So while I’ve seen my future, I know that every day, I have the opportunity to make sure it’s not the future with which I’ll end up. And that little bit of knowledge, that awareness that anything can change on a dime, is the reason why my daily routine has been called “crazy,” “weird,” and “truly insane,” but also the singular reason why I am where I am in my life today, personally and professionally. To understand my daily routine, which starts at 3:45am each morning, you have to understand one thing about me: I have Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder, (ADHD,) and my ADHD is one of the key reasons I’ve been fortunate enough to have the success in my life that I’ve had so far. The primary benefit of ADHD is a massively quicker brain. We react much, much stronger to dopamine, serotonin and adrenaline than most people, because we don’t get as much of it as “normal” people do. This is a tremendous advantage if you know how to use this speed. If you don’t, however, the downsides can be game-ending. Most people who have discovered that ADHD can several commonalities. As I’m very open about telling people, I only have two speeds in my life: “Namaste,” and “I’ll cut a bâ€"â€".” That’s it. There is no middle ground for me. It’s because of this that I live my life the way I do. My routine is powered by, and because of, ADHD, and when “regular” people start following some form of my routine, they find themselves getting several hours in the day “back” to them, that they didn’t know they ever had. This leads to higher productivity, better sleep, and a more successful life. My routine guarantees that I live my life to the best of my ability, every single day, and it begins with drawing an initial wake-up hit of those three brain chemicals I mentioned above, a hit that’ll last me long into my day, and ends with pure exhaustion, and a wonderfully rejuvenating sleep to start the cycle over the next day. No pills needed, no external stimuli required. First and always first: exercise. When my alarm goes off at 3:45 and my bedroom lights have finished their automated program to light my room, I rise out of bed, already in my workout clothes, because I always put them on the night before. I slip on my bike shoes, and walk move six inches to my Peloton bicycle, which sits right next to my bed. I snap on my heart-rate monitor, and start my first 45 minute workout of the day. By the time the sun comes up, I’ve either done two rides already, or I’m finishing an outdoor long run or a lifting workout at the gym, depending on whether it’s a day my daughter is staying with me. Second: elimination of choice. By 6:45am, I’m back in my apartment, showered and dressed, and ready to start my day. I’m wearing either a t-shirt and jeans, or a button down shirt and jeans, depending on whether I’m traveling/going to the office, or speaking/going on TV. How do I know what I’m wearing? Because my bedroom closet has two sides, one is labeled “traveling/office,” and the other side is labeled “speaking/tv.” All my suits, sweaters, vests, different shoes, etc, are in another closet in another bedroom. Why? Because if I had to look at them each day, I’d without question start remembering how I got them, where I got them, or who gave them to me, and three hours later, would be naked in the living room looking them up on Facebook, having yet to leave the house. Elimination of choice has radically improved my life for the better, and not just from my wardrobe. I routinely eat the same things because I know it’s good for me, I know I like it, and I know it’s easy to make. It also removes the opportunity to walk into a pizza place on my way back from a meeting, which could start a spiral of bad food and health choices. I quit drinking, not because I had a problem, but because most people with my type of personality simply can’t have one drink. In my world, one drink is like leftover pizza. It’s simply not a real thing. So I avoid the chance of drinking a lot, which would lead to eating poorly, which would lead to not getting up early, which would lead to no exercise, which could potentially start a cycle that could ruin me. To quote from the movie “War Games,” “the only winning move is not to play.” My workday is spent similarly to how you spend yours, probably. But I continue to give myself brain chemical drips during my working hours, whether that’s walking up stairs, or sometimes even dropping for pre-meeting pushups or jumping jacks before walking into the room. It’s the difference between you meeting someone who’s functional and interested in what you have to say, and you meeting someone whose focus is clearly somewhere else. Third: use what works for you. I’ve written five books, two of which became bestsellers, all entirely on airplanes. My most recent two have been written on flights that I had no other reason to take. In other words, I flew to Asia and back to write a book on the plane. Why? 14 hours each way of uninterrupted deep-work, no distractions, no Internet, no mobile phone, no alerts. Just a blank page and my headphones. And it works. Fourth: put on your own oxygen mask first. I finally learned that I needed to stop caring what others thought about the things I do, and do the things that matter to me, for me. The second I did that, my world opened up for me. If you’re not taking care of yourself first, how can you possibly expect to take care of others, to better the world, or to create epic things? Surviving on three hours of sleep a night as an entrepreneur isn’t something to be proud of, it’s a sign of stupidity, and worse, an indicator that you’ll be a terrible CEO, because you have no idea about priorities. Taking care of you, whatever that might look like to you, isn’t optional. In the end, I’ve set up these life rules for myself because I know they make me better all around. That’s what’s important to me. Ask yourself what’s important to you, then figure out ways to live your life so you never forget that those things are your top priority.

5 Things Leaders Can Learn From Olivia Pope, Scandals Fixer - Work It Daily

5 Things Leaders Can Learn From Olivia Pope, Scandal’s Fixer - Work It Daily What do you and Olivia Pope have in common? Honestly, probably not much. Unless you’re also secretly dating a high-powered politician and finding that international diplomacy issues are getting in the way of healthy relationships with your parents, you’re almost certainly nothing like her. Related: 6 Leadership Traits You (The Employee) Need To Develop On-The-Job That doesn’t mean, however, that you can’t learn some valuable lessons from her cool, hyper-loyal leadership style. While DC’s most powerful fixer does make the occasional slipup, she’s an expert at inspiring trust and getting the job done right, no matter what. 1. Loyalty Is Everything Liv and her team are loyal to one another to the death... Well except that time Quinn was secretly working with Charlie, and then Huck proceeded to pull her teeth out… but let’s just pretend that didn’t happen. Otherwise, Olivia and her co-fixers always have each other’s’ backs, even when it’s not particularly convenient. Competition and criticism can easily pervade any workplace â€" we get stressed, we get tired, and we get sick of each other; it’s natural. But, keep in mind that aside from your family, you see the people at work more than anyone else in your life. For better or worse, you’re a big part of one another’s lives and you’re all on the same team, heading towards the same goals. You never see Olivia throw one of her people under the bus or embarrass them in front of a client. When there’s an issue, she deals with it directly, in the spirit of tough love rather than hurtful criticism or judgment. That only works, however, because they genuinely trust and respect her to the point that they’d follow her over a cliff. Harrison summed it up nicely in season 1: “She had a reason, I don’t know what it is and I don’t need to know. She asked me to do something and I did it.” 2. Be A Gladiator All true “Scandal” fans will recall the pilot episode when Harrison was trying to impress upon Quinn the importance of what the fixers do: “I’m a gladiator in a suit. Because that’s what you are when you work for Olivia - you’re a gladiator in a suit. Do you want to be a gladiator in a suit?” The term has since become emblematic of the show. But, what does he mean? From a professional perspective, he means that he and Olivia and Abby work tirelessly and fight passionately for what they believe is right. They never quit until the good guy is victorious. While very few professions involve “fighting” for the good guy, all professional leaders can learn from Olivia and her team’s unwavering commitment to their clients. Liv and the team don’t rest until the client is vindicated. In a way, the term, “Gladiators in suits” brings to mind the idiom, “A wolf in sheep’s clothing.” Powerful business leaders like Olivia Pope present to the world an impeccable, polished face that can belie the scrappy fighter that lies beneath. That fighting spirit can be applied to the work you do for your clients as well as the way you go to bat for your team, no matter what you’re up against. 3. Leave Personal Problems Outside When it comes to complex personal issues, Olivia Pope takes the cake: she’s having a not-so-secret affair with the President; her dead mother isn’t so much dead as she is an international terrorist; her dad runs a top-secret spy organization that keeps kidnapping her friends and lovers… The list goes on. Yet, enter a client who needs fixing and Olivia is all business. One might argue that she bottles up her emotions, but you’ve got to give it to the lady when it comes to not letting her insanely personal issues distract her from the job at hand. Even when she’s embroiled in life-altering events, she scores wins at work. While your problems are probably more of the normal people variety, they can still get in the way. If your personal life is full of drama, think of work as a haven where you can escape â€" focus your mind on your professional duties to give it a rest from all the other worries. The added benefit of this strategy is that you’ll avoid snapping at colleagues and making needless mistakes. 4. Find A Way Pope Associates never say, “Die.” Even when a client’s challenge seems insurmountable, the team finds a way to get what they want. Saying that they’re resourceful would be a vast understatement. Your famous pastor husband died in a hotel room with a hand-cuffed hussy in the closet, and that hussy turns out to be his longtime mistress who’s demanding a $6 million payout because she has his child? No problem. In almost any job in any field, you’re going to come across seemingly-impossible challenges and gigantic road blocks at many turns. The difference between success and failure is finding a way around them, even if that way is extremely unconventional. Creative problem-solving is the common trait of all wildly successful people. But, remember: Olivia never does it on her own. She always taps the unique talents of her team. 5. No One’s Perfect While her fashion sense is arguably perfect, Ms. Pope herself is far from faultless. She’s quite aware of her weaknesses (namely a certain high-ranking political official), and those of the people around her. In fact, she hired each member of her team after having very intimate knowledge of their past mistakes. Never forget that she met Huck when he was essentially a homeless lunatic living in the subway. All of her people have made serious mistakes and are prone to occasional breakdowns, but she continues to support them regardless. Neither you nor anyone at your workplace is perfect â€" they’re faulted human beings who have made errors and will continue to make them. The important thing is that, ultimately, you believe in their capabilities and skills enough to see them through those errors and help teach them how to do better next time. Leaders must invest in their team, and investing is a long-term game. Say what you will about Olivia Pope and her often blind weakness for the wrong man, but she is a fierce leader who many of us would gladly work for. We should all be so lucky to have a team that would follow us into battle the way her Associates would. Next time you’re in a moment of professional crisis, just think, “WWOPD?” What would Olivia Pope do? This post was originally published on an earlier date.

As A Mom, Which Is Easier Corporate America Or Entrepreneur Life

As A Mom, Which Is Easier Corporate America Or Entrepreneur Life Fairygodboss held its inaugural Galvanize Summit on Nov. 1 and 2 with a specific objective in mind. The purpose of the sold-out auffhrung which convened leaders and influencers from the Womens Resource Groups of over 50 major US corporations was to identify ways to make these networks more effective in driving corporate gender diversity. Attendees gathered in New York to collaborate with one another and to learn from a slate of inspiring speakers, among them Accentures CHRO Ellyn Shook, GEs Vice Chair Beth Comstock, and Deborah Rosado Shaw, PepsiCos SVP, Chief Global Diversity and Engagement. They also had the chance to hear from Fairygodboss Co-Founders Georgene Huang and Romy Newman, who spoke to The New York Times Deputy Managing Editor Rebecca Blumenstein about how Fairygodboss came to be, how its grown, and what its future may have in store.This is an amazing gathering I can feel the energy in the room Blumstein said to the crowd. She probed Huang and Newman to offer insight on their experiences as entrepreneurs, moms, and as former leaders in more corporate environments.Blumenstein asked Huang and Newman both female leaders themselves with young kids at home to shed light on how they do it all.Huang recalled that somebody recently asked her whether it was harder to be in corporate America with small kids she and Newman had both been executives at Dow Jones or to be an entrepreneur. I think it was harder to be in corporate America, she said. I wasnt a CEO at my last job, so I didnt get to make some of the saatkorn choices or have the same flexibility. I do think companies need to understand that people whether or not theyre parents have a life outside of work that the need to tend to.Newman wholeheartedly agreed. I can take my kids to school every day, she explained. At some companies, theyd understand this but some wouldnt. And that 15 minutes can make a all the difference for some f amilies.(From left to right Romy Newman, Rebecca Blumenstein, and Georgene Huang. Photo Krisanne Johnson)Newman added that companies with more diversity perform better so theres a real business case for employers to invest in improving gender equality. Diversity becomes a side business, but smart companies will realize that its fundamental to our day job and to making more money for shareholders. More financial pressure will certainly get us there.What can companies actually do to get there? Huang and Newman cited Fairygodboss research that reveals a strong correlation between good parental leave and flexibility practices and employee satisfaction, and also stressed that companies need to get more women in leadership positions.Huang also explained how and why the initial idea for Fairygodboss took shape a few years ago, while she was just two months pregnant and hiding it, she was unexpectedly laid off during a management shakeup. While job searching, she was hoping to uncover info rmation on how prospective companies treated women, what their parental leave and flexibility policies were like, and whether women were paid and promoted equally to men. She turned to the internet for help, but had trouble finding answers so she figured shed crowdsource the information and build a database herself. We have to tell the truth about our workplace experiences in order to move forward in reaching gender equality, Huang said, adding that it means so much for women to hear directly from other women.This space with content for women, by women also encourages women to speak up about topics that they might otherwise shy away from discussing. When Blumenstein asked about how women might be able to use Fairygodboss as a space to discuss sexual harassment issues which, of course, have dominated headlines lately Newman explained reviews are completely anonymous, and Fairygodboss has worked hard to create a high-quality experience rather than a dumping ground for negativity. E ven when women do have concerns, they articulate them in an appropriate manner, Newman said.She went on to discuss how Fairygodboss is a useful resource not only for individual employees, but for company leaders as well. I hope companies will view Fairygodboss as a data source and also a tool through which to get better. I do realize it can feel intimidating no one likes to see negative reviews but I think almost universally theres a balance of positive and negative reviews. I think smart employers will take this information and learn from it.
