REQUESTING HELP: Advice for Business Students
David Warren is speaking to business students at USD on February 22nd. Rather than blather on about Gray Suit Marketing, the students are going to be presented with a “Top Ten Pieces of Unsolicited Advice for Business Students”. We want to be intentionally provokative and give students the real perspective from the CEO’s chair. Here is what we have so far:
10.
9.
8. If you are a senior and have been dating someone for 6 months or less, break up with them
7.
6.
5.
4. For the first year of work, shut up and produce
3.
2. Learn how to detail a car, wire home audio, or fix pipes. Actual skills ensure financial survival
1.
Please post your suggestions at http://graysuit.com/category/blog. We will repost the entire list after February 22nd. Here is your chance to tell it like it is!

1. If going into business for yourself, learn how to make friends with wealthy and generous people.
