Quick update - 1st day at Kellogg


Just a quick update to let you know I haven't been sleeping all this time! Had a lovely (if not unusually quiet - for me) weekend and loads more pics (and some experiences to share) will follow soon.

The photo above shows you where you will find me every Monday for the next 7 weeks. First day thoughts, the lecturers are awesome! Today we learnt about Economics & Strategy which was delivered by Jen Brown and Leadership in Action by Keith Murnighan. Might sound boring? Maybe in the hands of less skilled speakers. Both sessions were thoroughly engaging, interesting and really insightful. Even more so, all of the students in the class (there's 51 of us!) were interacting and asking questions throughout the day. A massive difference to the very quiet lectures that we have in Finland. Because of the constant interaction and thought provoking questions I think I learnt a lot more than I would have otherwise. I feel really inspired and privileged to be here. It's not often one gets to experience the quality of teaching from one of the top business schools in the world. Activities for the rest of the week will involve spending a few days at the Innovations and New Ventures Office (INVO) and my host lab.
