“…The Council has given
me a superb place to network and meet professionals. It is teaching me
how to relate to people that are older than me and have different generational
frames of reference- something very important in business…Personally,
this scholarship has helped me to keep my passion for selling and making
deals, getting the product out there to the public and just a business
mindset in general. It does this by letting me see a place that I might
be able to get to in twenty years. I don’t know if I would be as
passionate about my business classes if I didn’t have this incentive.”

"Being
part of the Corporate Leadership Council program has been a great experience
for me these last two years at Georgia Southern. Aside from the financial
support, the Council has provided insight into the business world. Through
my contact with Council members I have been able to meet prominent businessmen,
network with employees from successful companies, and forge closer relationships
with professors in COBA. The Corporate Leadership Council has enriched
my educational experience at GSU and made me better prepared for the business
world." |

"Corporate
Leadership Council has allowed me to network with business men and women
early on in my education. The degree of professionalism is set high and
as a result you will begin to carry yourself more professionally. It was
a great experience and I would recommend pursuing a position in the CLC
to any business major that plans on excelling in college." |

“Ever since I was a little girl I had an
interest in business due to my father’s success as a business owner.
As I got older, I decided that I wanted to focus on the financial aspects
of the business world. All of the guest speakers we have been introduced
to have exposed us to many different aspects of business. Thanks to the
sponsors of the CLC, we are able to become better business students and
not only do we get great information, but inspiration as well. Attending
Georgia Southern University and especially being a member of the Corporate
Leadership Council has given me many wonderful opportunities and experiences.”

“The scholarship I receive through the Corporate
Leadership Council has covered many of my college expenses for me, which
has benefitted my family greatly (I am one of four children.) This Council
has been an amazing opportunity that I love being involved with. It has
opened my eyes to many different business opportunities and I have learned
new skills that I will need for the business world. Everything from the
mock business we created our freshman year, to etiquette presentations,
to learning about failed business decisions and leadership-the CLC has
been an invaluable learning experience for me! This Council and this scholarship
have both opened so many doors for me and I am continually learning and
growing from the experiences and knowledge I have gained thus far.”

“In the beginning of my college career, I
was a very shy individual; but through the CLC, I am now learning more
and more about how to interact with my peers in a business-like manner
and have developed more social skills. Through the numerous speakers we
have had at our meeting, I have learned a great deal of useful information
that I can carry with me throughout the rest of my college career as well
as my business career. Even during our refreshments time, we have been
able to interact with the speakers and other professors and ask them questions
in order to gain more knowledge about what we will one day be doing."

“Through
my participation with the Corporate Leadership Council at Georgia Southern
University, I have learned many useful tips and listened to great advice
which will greatly help me in my future business career. While some of
these tips might have come later throughout my studies here, the ability
to ask questions to our many guest speakers has already become an invaluable
asset to me and is an asset that I would never have received in the classroom.” |
