My Internship

Along with the MSBA program we are asked to maintain an internship. I am currently interning in the Business and Economics office at CUA. What is unique about my job is that I have two bosses. One is Stu McHie, the Program Director for the MSBA program and the other is Beatriz Lopez Bonetti the program director for the Integral Development programs. 

These two bosses could not be much different in their management styles. Mr. McHie manages like an archer, he takes aim at a task and wants it completed. Even when giving multiple assignments I still know which one is to be done first. Ms. Lopez Bonetti manages with a shotgun approach, scatter lots of tasks out there and get as many done as possible. I appreciate each style because it allows me to experience different ways of managing and being managed. 

In my internship I also get to attend different job and graduate fairs. These are great experiences for me because I get to work on my personal relationship skills. At these fairs it is my job to try and sell the program to individuals who may just want to walk by our table without stopping. I enjoy the conversations I have had so far with each person as I attempt to lead them to the various programs that the School of Business and Economics have available. 

This is of course the short list of what I do, but so far the internship is a blast.
