Have you heard of the Reciprocity Circle (or ring)? 🤝 try it next time you’re with friends or coworkers. It works for both personal and professional asks. It’s a structured exercise designed to harness the power of GIVING within a group. Here’s how it works: 1️⃣ Each participant shares a personal or professional request they need help with. 2️⃣ The rest of the group brainstorms ways they can offer assistance—whether it’s introductions, advice, resources, or opportunities. 3️⃣ Everyone benefits by giving and receiving Why is this concept so powerful? It flips the script on networking by focusing on what you can give rather than just what you can By HELPING others, you strengthen relationships, build goodwill, and often discover unexpected solutions for yourself This video is from my first quarter at Stanford’s business school. I’m reposting my favorite videos and this one is such a good reminder! The concept of the Reciprocity Ring was developed by Wayne and Cheryl Baker. If you’re interested, Wayne Baker’s book, “All You Have to Do Is Ask” has more info💗 #womeninbusiness #womenempowerment #mbalife #mbastudent #corporate #mbastudents #womeninstem #womenintech #student #businessschool #finance #consulting #venturecapital

We got to hear the pitch from startup founder to investor 🎉People ⏭️ Product ⏭️ Market 🤔I found this early stage investor framework so helpful. 1️⃣ VCs want to understand the founding team. Who are the founders? What are their backgrounds? How do they work together? What is their founding story? Why are they THE people to build THIS startup? 2️⃣ VCs need to understand the product. How does it work? What does it do? Does it have a moat? Is it something I can see providing value to users and customers? 3️⃣ What is the market like? Can I better understand the market? What is the size of the market? Who are the main competitors? How is it differentiated from competitors? #womeninbusiness #womenempowerment #mbalife #mbastudent #corporate #mbastudents #womeninstem #womenintech #student #businessschool #finance #consulting #investor #investing #venturecapital

Private equity: an overview. Buy, fix, and sell is what PE shops do in the case of large buy outs. Im general, private equity include venture capital and growth equity as well but when people talk aboUt PE, they mostly refer to the LBO model. Interesting? Or boring? 🙃🤓🤪 #womeninbusiness #mbalife #mbastudent #corporate #womenempowerment #womeninfinance #finance #mbastudentlife #mbastudents

EBITDA and why it doesnt matter 🤑💸 as much as FCF when evaluating companies in a private equity context. This PE class is surprisingly very interesting and loving the hot takes the professor has 🙏🏻 #womeninbusiness #mbalife #mbastudent #corporate #mbastudents #womenintech #womeninstem #womeninfinance #finance #businessschool #consulting #ebitda

I feel the tension between old and new, history and innovation when visiting these iconic luxury companies 💭💄👠📈 Some of them have been around for HUNDREDS of years. It’s interesting hearing how they innovate and adapt to new technology while maintaining the culture and value they’ve grown for ages. More of these learning videos coming soon💕💭 @cartier #cartier #paris #womeninbusiness #womenempowerment #mbalife #mbastudent #mbastudents #womeninstem #womenintech #fashion #fashionweek #businessschool #student #womenempoweringwomen

My background is in computer science so learning about business in fashion and beauty (my personal interest areas) is so REFRESHING and EXCITING🤓👠 also to be in Paris with people who care about this stuff is really cool because day-to-day, we don’t talk about this in the classroom. I FEEL LIKE MY BRAIN EXPANDED. I love the feeling of learning new things I’ve never been exposed to before. My classmates and I are visiting iconic beauty and fashion brands this week 📈🗂️💄💼 to learn about their global strategy and business. #womeninbusiness #womenempowerment #mbalife #mbastudent #corporate #mbastudents #womeninstem #womenintech #student #businessschool #finance #consulting

Highlight of this program was getting to know professors better. They have such interesting life and career stories to share. I’m so happy I prioritized this aspect of the last two years 🥹 You’ll be seeing more faculty interviews on my podcast in the coming months! 😇 stay tuned Jacket is from @shopclarev 💕 #womeninbusiness #womenempowerment #mbalife #mbastudent #corporate #mbastudents #womeninstem #womenintech #student #businessschool #finance #consulting
