Presented at Thunderbird University today in Phoenix. It’s the renowned MBA only school that focuses on International and Cross Cultural Management. U.S. News & World Report ranked the school #1 in the world for International Business education. Of its 800 students, 50% come from abroad. The school gets its name from being located where an old WWII army base was (hence Thunderbird).
It was great to be able to present to students in a casual atmosphere of shorts and T-Shirts (I got to wear khaki pants!). The student magazine wrote a great review of my talk.
Every Fall, they hold a very interesting business plan competition that focuses on innovation.
Last year, 154 teams competed (Brigham Young University won first prize of $20,000).
