This Spring Quarter, a couple of Boothies and I had the
pleasure of attending the IESE Spring Games in the beautiful city of Barcelona.
For the event, IESE Business School plays host to over 1000 students from top
business schools around the globe. The games take place over a weekend, where
participants spend the day taking part in a variety of activities ranging from
beach volleyball to badminton; and spend the night getting to know people from
all over the world!
For the first time ever, the Booth team took part in the games’ dance competition.
Every year between January and February, people around the world celebrate Chinese New Year. 2019 is the year of the Pig and Booth’s Greater China Club (GCC) and Epicurean Club took the opportunity to share it with their classmates.
I recently had the pleasure of listening to Tzachi Zamir speak at a Spark Dinner hosted by the Harry L. Davis Center for Leadership at Booth. Tzachi is the inaugural visiting scholar and a Professor of English and Comparative Literature at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem. In his talk, he discussed the performance related aspects of leadership and the need for leaders to hone the characters they bring on stage.
Whether it’s doing homework, competing in a case competition,
or planning an event for the student body, Boothie teamwork plays a huge role
in shaping both our experience and our outcome. One of the best parts about
working in Booth groups is each individual brings a unique perspective to the
table as a result of their diverse experience. Here are 5 groups I’ve been a
part of that have defined my time at Booth.
Over Winter Break, we had an open call for Boothies to share their favorite times at Booth. We continue this series with two stories of great teams: one group working together to launch a new product for MillerCoors, the other lightening the finals week mood with a festive rendition of “12 Days of Booth-mas” in the Winter Garden.
