Goizueta provides a solid conceptual foundation to build upon in the 'real world.' The close interaction with faculty allowed me to bounce ideas off of experienced leaders in a safe environment. This freedom made me well prepared for informational interviews with alumni and able to add value to those talks, and in the end one of these contacts opened the door for an interview at my current employer.
