Mid Penn Bank’s Post

Today's lunch with IPADE Business School's MBA Team #6 transcended the ordinary meal; it was filled with a rich exchange of questions and insights, spanning the intricacies of case studies to the pursuit of internships and what's to come. Embracing the humility to admit 'I don't know' and sharing our experiences enriched our dialogue, underscoring the life-long journey of #growth. Such gatherings foster a crucial space for mutual learning, marked by openness and curiosity. Here's to creating spaces where we can ask questions, learn together, and cultivate openness. ⚡️

🎉 Exciting news 🎉 Our international innovative ‘DreamBig@WTW’ program has launched in its second year. This intensive program is delivered in partnership with WTW a leading global advisory and broking solutions company. DreamBig@WTW is a unique three-year program that supports young people aged 15-18, from marginalised communities in the United Kingdom to develop their business and life skills. Our mentees will have access to skills-based training, learning about all aspects of WTW’s People, Risk, and Capital business segments – including the vital skills of problem-solving, data analytics, and communication. Urban Synergy and WTW mentors will meet with youth monthly during the school year to help them build confidence to ‘dream big’ and develop skills in pursuing their future careers. The program also offers paid summer internships within a line of business at WTW and guidance to reinvest skills in their communities. Dorothy Wilkes, Co-Head of DreamBig, said: “There is no greater legacy than preparing those who come after us to achieve exponentially even greater things than we did. This program affords access into a financial area of business and society where minority and marginalized groups have historically been underrepresented and, in some cases, excluded, and we are catalyzing that change.” Read more here: https://lnkd.in/dvcB2rQ3 WTW #corporatepartnerships #youngprofessionals #socialmobility #mentorshipmatters #ukcharity

Following up on our 2015 and 2019 alumni surveys, we are conducting another one to build on our knowledge of where they have been. Our numbers keep growing and there are now 385 BPhil, 111 BIS and 51 MPhil alumni. Previous surveys focused on the BPhil program, but we’re expanding it now to include all programs. Here are some highlights from the 2019 survey: - 53% response rate (154 submissions!)  - 80% of alumni had completed or were pursuing additional studies  - Fields of work with the highest representation were education, health services, government and legal  - Alumni wanted there to be a continuing focus on; internships, sense of community, small cohorts, community connections, learning how to address challenging problems, staff/faculty interaction, building self-awareness, and unconventional approaches to educational models. The current survey will be open until March 7, so tag another RC alumni in the comments that you think should fill it out, partly because we’ll be drawing for an RC swag pack for every 50 submissions we receive. Each pack will include a toque, t-shirt and mug https://lnkd.in/d6hY8Kyb
