The Mentor Who Changed My Life: A Deep Dive with Dr. Sean Siebert
Back in 2011, I took my first business class in college.
I had heard about this professor who had a really innovative way of teaching inside of the business school at Columbia
After taking that class, I ended up having quite a few classes with him and he ended up becoming my Advisor for a little while.
It was in 2012 during my junior where I took my first entrepreneurial class with him, created my first business plan and learned that Monopoly actually could be tied back to business (my family strongly dislikes playing with me now).
Some of my favorite classes ever were taught by today’s guest and I consider him my first mentor in the business world.
The fact that we are sitting together now on my podcast over a decade later, it feels very surreal and I’m grateful.
My guest today is Dr. Sean Siebert.
