Do you watch AFL? I feel like I'm the only one at work who doesn't obsesses over the matches, and I stand out like a sore thumb. People ask me what I think about player so and so, and I have no idea who they are. Is it ludicrous that I'm considering getting into footy for the networking opportunities?

It's not crazy, the way my boss goes on about it you'd think it was the thing making him money rather than his business. I'm not much of an AFL person either, but I know a couple of players since my dad is a fan of epic proportions.

Hi all, I’m in need of some career advice. Not sure where to direct my attention. I know that I don’t enjoy consulting, but I’m also fairly confident that I don’t like strategy. The things I enjoyed the most was getting into the customer’s head and figuring out what they value, which I think I’m pretty good at. I also enjoy working with others frequently and finding a solution together, instead of having individual workstreams. I can hold my own in front of a crowd as long as I’m confident in...

I have a few questions for people in consulting roles (both external/internal).

My partner is in corporate banking, but he wants to switch to a consulting/strategy-based role. I noticed people with those jobs typically have an MBA, and also majority of the job ads in similar roles has MBA as either a requirement or preferred qualification. So:

1) does MBA actually improve someone's chance in getting those roles?
2) are there any good Canadian MBA programs you'd recommend?

Thank you all!
