Another look Into The Jungle, reflecting on our last week with Kalamazoo College business students and our mid-semester presentations.

“You can stay safe where you are and have an ordinary life, or you can risk crossing the jungle to have a terrific life” -Ray Dalio. A quote we consistently return to in the Leadership and Business Strategy program, as it reminds us the best way to achieve something is to work through it and allow yourself to grow.

Teams comprised of CTLs and Analysts from both Western and K College presented recommendations to AVB after months of preparation. For K College business students, this was their final hurrah before finishing the winter trimester.

Gifts, encouragement, and feedback were just some of the things given and exchanged this week—being sure to get everyone in the spirit to take on the busy week and get after it. With spirits high and drive to achieve pushing though, all six teams were able to give it their all and come out of the first half of the semester stronger than before.

Stay tuned for the final episode of the series and keep getting after it.
