In my first six months at Accenture, I managed to distinguish myself as one of the top 20 analysts in the firm. As a result, I have been accepted to the inaugural class of 'Innovation Explorers' at Accenture.
"Innovation Explorers is a program where the top 20 analysts and senior analysts are trained in co-creation, design thinking, and innovation strategy, then will be placed on a key account to help the client execute on their innovation agenda. Championed by Pete Choo, our lead in the NY Innovation Hub, Innovation Explorers will serve as an extension of the Innovation Hubs as they stand on the frontlines of innovation and gain the essential skills to make a difference to an account. Innovation Explorers will be ready to uncover answers that we couldn’t have imagined yesterday."
Professor Josh Ehrig's course in the MS in Management Program, his mentorship with DressedGPS, and our many conversations on the happenings in the world of tech/start-ups played a key role in making this happen. I can't thank him enough.
