B-Schooled Podcast Episode #197: Be Authentic, Be Bold, and Have a Solid Plan (Part 1 of 3)
For the past two years, our B-Schooled co-host Chandler has ended each of his podcasts with the same nine words: Be authentic, be brave, and have a solid plan.
In many ways, these words summarize so much of Chandler’s entire MBA application philosophy. In this three-part series, he will dive deep into authenticity, boldness, and career planning—and how each of these relates to MBA applications.
Today, Chandler talks extensively about authenticity and aggregates a great deal of free resources related to this critically important topic. Among other things, Chandler talks about how to:
• Channel your most authentic self when writing your MBA essays
• Highlight what you’ve learned and how you’ve grown
• Deal with self-doubt while on your MBA journey
Chandler concludes by challenging listeners to use authenticity as a way to reframe doubts into boldness. By turning your deepest fears on their heads, you might just discover the fuel you need to take your application to the next level.
