The Job Closer Quotes

“Just this year, we introduced an exercise for our Duke MBAs called “How Your Talents Add Value” to help drive this point home for them. We presented them with four “buckets” of work: (1) Making things happen, (2) Collaborating with others, (3) Leading and influencing others, and (4) Solving challenging problems. We then asked our students to pick two of their Top 5 talent themes that they must regularly combine in order to accomplish each bucket of work. They were instructed to put in their own words how they used these talent themes in tandem to do good work and then to describe an example where they did so.”
