We are nearing the completion of GAP and the associated project, and I have had some time to reflect on GAP. The association that most comes to mind is finding a job, applying for the job, waiting to hear if you got an offer, and finally the job itself.
The GAP program started off as an alluring component of OSU and the Fisher MBA program – just like any open position at the company where you want to work. You read about the program/job, watch videos and daydream.
Tonight was the first time in my whole life that I’ve had a team meeting after 11:30 pm. Usually I’m snuggled up and warm under the covers by about 9:30pm…but not in Mexico. We’re working late into the night, and I’ve had two diet cokes to keep up my energy. Our final presentation is Friday morning, and we’re determined to deliver a solid deck and several files containing hot sales leads.
