Every great presentation needs a prop, right?
One collaboration round team thought so when they came into the graduate lounge with an urgent request: one lab coat needed for their “awesome” presentation within one hour. Bishal Gupta, MBA ’12, Jennifer Bonicelli, an Ericsson executive, and Elana Horowitz, MS.MBA ’12, set off to make sure the students had what they needed. They made a few phone calls and realized that their best odds of finding a lab coat were in the nearby chemistry department. When they knocked on their door to ask to borrow one, a friendly Japanese woman tried to help them but she couldn’t quite understand English. Elana stepped up to use her Japanese to translate. Elana happened to have studied abroad for one year in Japan and taught English there. This team of Tech Strategy Conference Committee members are not only talented business students, but they are bi-lingual.
That team owes you one Elana!
