Three People, Three Questions
Thursday, September 1, 2011
Â
What are you reading?
I’ve got three books going right now. I’m reading Awaken, Align, Accelerate: A Guide to Great Leadership by MDA Consulting. I’m just about finished with Quiet Strength by Tony Dungy and I just started an Agatha Christie mystery, Sleeping Murder.
Â
Your favorite website?
No single favorite. I have a rather eclectic group of Internet sites I visit regularly. I usually start the day by looking at the local paper online. I then check out the business world by going to the Wall Street Journal. Finally, it is my duty to keep up with foot fashion, so I make a quick daily stop at Zappos.
Â
Your dream job?
My dream job would be a chocolate dessert tester in France.
Â
Â
What are you reading?
Rethinking the MBAÂ by Datar, Garvin, and Cullen provides empirically based advice to help MBA programs stay relevant and effective.
Â
Your favorite website?
I am into GTD (Getting Things Done) as promoted by David Allen (www.davidco.com).
Â
Your dream job?
I’m enjoying my new role as the associate dean for MBA Programs so far…but I’ve only had the job for a few months.
Â
Â
What are you reading?
Right now I’m reading A Dance with Dragons by George R.R. Martin. It took a long time for him to finish the book, but it’s definitely been worth the wait.
Â
Your favorite website?
The New York Times. I think I check it about 10 times a day.
Â
Your dream job?
I’d have to say any job working with bicycles – marketing, manufacturing, anything. I love to ride my bike and the extensive trails in and around the Twin Cities are one of its best features.
