Today, another Sauder BCom alumnus, Tom Dobrzanski, came to speak for a few minutes about his ventures into the music business. Honestly, I’m very impressed and pleased with the amount of guest speakers and professors the class has brought in. Thank you Comm 101!
Anyways, I thought it was very inspiring to listen to Tom talk about his business as he was able to incorporate what he had learned from school and apply to his interest, music. It was particularly fascinating to learn that it was by chance he became involved with his band and the realization that linking his degree to a business in the music industry was possible. Many people come into business school with the hope of finding a job with satisfying pay after graduating; I too fall in this category. However, we fail to realize that working on a job we are passionate about is equally important. I believe in order to find true happiness, it is very important to follow your passion and work on a job that you are actually interested in rather than simply for the sake of a good pay. I am jealous of these people that have found their passion and work as I have not yet found mine, but I am inspired to do the same.
