Over the weekend, I completed work on a strategic goal, so I'd like to take a moment to share.
For the past 2 years, I have been participating in a course called the Business Professionals Course. It is an in-lieu-of MBA program, that is recognized as equivalent to an MBA by companies such as GE and Sprint. On Saturday, after completing an oral and 2-part written examination, I graduated from BPC class #39.
The course isn't right for most people, but it was exactly what I needed at this point in my life. I can honestly say that this course has been a good investment. I am much more calm and focused. My ability and capacity to transact at work and in life has increased dramatically. Although many of my colleagues produced significant gains in income (the average compensation increase of the class was 97%), I haven't produced significant financial gains as a result of my career moves over the past 2 years. However, I have learned a lot about money, currency, and value. I met a lot of high performers and really good people.
I'm now moving to another phase of the practice, called the LEIP program. LEIP is an acronym for Leadership, Entrepreneurship, Innovation and accumulating Power. It is a way for me to continue working with the wonderful folks that I met in the program, and a way to continue practicing the ideas that I had been learning the past two years.
