Hey, everyone. I know that I haven’t been responding to many visitor emails as of late and I apologize for that. I’ve been working on a couple of projects on the side, including one that I hope to announce to all of you soon, so, as a result, I’ve been slacking on addressing the emails that have been sent to me. I’ll get better with that going forward.

The email below is from one of my Platinum members who is planning to apply to business school this coming Fall. He met one of my classmates from Stanford GSB a few months ago and, during that exchange, he learned that the course at the GSB that had the greatest impact was one that we affectionately refer to as “Touchy Feely”. After hearing this from my friend, he decided to ask me which GSB course had the most impact on my career. Instead of giving him a single course, I decided to tell him about 3 classes that have been absolute winners in my post-MBA career so far. This is a really interesting question for an MBA aspirant to ask alums of the schools that he/she is considering.

Marquis,

What’s happenin’? Hope you’re bringing in the New Year strong.

I was just thinking about our previous conversation and how I told you that your classmate, Noah, said that the course, Touchy Feely, has impacted his career the most out of the courses that he’d taken in b-school… but I don’t remember asking you…

Was there any one course that you’ve taken at the GSB that has had the biggest impact in your professional career? If so, what and why?

Just curious. Hope all is well.
