Marketing Career Talk and Q&A Set for this Thursday from 12:30 to 2pm in HA491

Hi Everyone,

Based on the strong responses from both sections, I’ve set the date and time for the marketing career talk.  This Thursday, March 29th from 12:30 to 2:00 pm.  Feel free to bring your lunch.

My plan is to give a short presentation on my career path and experiences, common roles, and what you can expect from Marketing.  In addition, Dr. Darren Dahl (Division Chair – Marketing at Sauder) will join us to chat about / answer any questions you have about the Marketing program at Sauder.  Most importantly though, there will be lots of time to answer your questions.

If there are any other specific topics you would like me to cover or you have any questions in advance, just drop me an email.  This time has been planned based on the questions I’ve received during my office hour visits, so it’s all for you and what you’re interested in hearing.

Presentation Evaluation & Reminders

Hi Everyone,

Here’s what I will be evaluating in your presentations this week:

  • Content: whether you have included all of the information required, logical arguments, authentic facts to support your recommendations, implications of your recommendations, content in your responses to questions, etc.
  • Style: voice projection, clarity of speech, eye contact with the audience (vs. reading heavily from notes), memorable conclusion, handling of questions, etc.
  • Time management: within time limits, appropriate use of time for part A vs B
  • Use of media: polished and proofed slides, smooth transitions between sections, media that support (vs. distract from) your speaking, etc.

Content and style will be weighted most heavily.

Reminders:

There will be a grading form for ALL students to fill out in class during the presentations, including what grade you recommend each team should receive!

There were questions for you to address in the Assignment Outline word document (posted on Vista), please make sure you are addressing those.

Think about what questions I may ask you, what your responses will be and who will be answering them.

I am really looking forward to listening to your presentations and hearing all of your terrific ideas.

Good luck!
