The MBA Story Sprint: Build a Compelling Admit-Ready Narrative [8/18/2026] (Recording)

This workshop will help MBA applicants move from a fragmented set of stories/experiences to a clear, compelling admissions narrative. We’ll break down how to craft a story that connects your career history, leadership moments, future goals, and “why MBA” into a narrative that feels distinctive, credible, linear, and harmonious. You’ll leave with a practical framework for identifying your strongest themes, avoiding generic essay traps, and building an application that shows not only what you’ve done, but also who you are, how you lead, and where you’re going. My objective for livestream attendees is simple: to equip MBA applicants with a framework to unlock the strongest version of their story, then communicate it with clarity, confidence, and proof. If you are a professional applying to MBA programs in Round 1 or Round 2 (especially if currently in or looking to switch to strategy, finance, consulting, corporate, or operations post-MBA), this event is for you! This is free. It's live. It's 1 hour that will transform your application.
