Summary
As you prepare to leave the course and begin a career, it is worth asking a few questions for the road ahead, and discussing your future with your classmates and others who have traveled the road before you.
Today we will have a free-wheeling discussion with a panel of very
interesting
young entrepreneurial leaders who have found fulfillment in very
different entrepreneurial
pursuits. We will weave issues of making money and making meaning, and
finding
your true calling with your more immediate concerns regarding careers

Sometimes it’s good to ask big questions. Maslow’s big question was " what vision to aspire to?" Please come to class with one big question for our panel. This does not need to be turned in or emailed to the teaching team. But we would strongly suggest taking some time to think of a good question for our guest.
