Today we are joined by Brian Plemmons, Director and Global Process Owner for BD, a global medical technology company advancing the world of health. After graduating from high school, Brian joined the United States Navy. During his military service Brian also earned his Associate's Degree, then went on to earn his Bachelor's degree and a law degree. Brian practiced law for seven years before transitioning to corporate America with a global medical device company. After working in the corporate world for some time Brian then decided to return to school, earning his MBA from Kenan-Flagler in his late 30s/early 40s. In this wide-ranging discussion Brian and Chandler discuss a range of topics, including:
- How to leverage military experience in your MBA application (and in the classroom),
- The importance of "giving yourself grace" when applying to business school and planning your career,
- Suggestions for those interested in earning an MBA in addition to another advanced degree,
- Advice for older-than-average applicants,
- Advice for applicants with children,
- Tips for those interested in earning an MBA part-time,
- and real-world advice for running your own cost/benefit analysis on whether or not an MBA is the right choice for you.
This podcast is a must for anyone--regardless of your age--interested in hearing thoughtful tips regarding the MBA application process from a global leader with lots of kindness and wisdom to share.
