FROM Kellogg MBA Blog: Inside Northwestern Kellogg B-school’s ambitious growth plan |
Originally posted on Fortune: (Poets&Quants) — It has been just over four years since Sally Blount assumed the deanship of Northwestern University’s Kellogg School of Management. During that time, the former dean of New York University’s undergraduate business program has led dramatic change at the school on nearly every front. The latest piece—announced Monday—is a new strategy focused on “inspiring growth.” Close observers may wonder why the school is tinkering once again with the Kellogg brand. After all, it was only three years ago that the school launched an ambitious effort to rebrand itself under the tagline: “Think Bravely: We believe that business can be bravely led, passionately collaborative, and world changing.” But Blount, a cerebral academic with a reputation for being a whirlwind, insists the new campaign is a smart refinement of all the work that has gone on to refresh and update the school over the past 30 months or… View original 1,608 more words Filed under: Uncategorized |

FROM Kellogg MBA Blog: Alumni Spotlight: Chris Motley ’11 |
Get to know some of Kellogg’s alumni who are bringing bold entrepreneurial visions to life. The cliché is true, says Chris Motley ’11: Companies tend to hire on skills and fire on fit. Problem is, during the hiring process, fit is hard to determine and harder to quantify. Fitting in at a company is one of the reasons so many people are unhappy at work, Motley says, citing a Gallup poll that reported two-thirds of employees are not engaged with their jobs. Better Weekdays hopes to change that dynamic. Founded by Motley in 2012, the career-management platform uses big data and analytics to match job-seeking professionals with candidate-seeking companies, based on compatibility and cultural fit. Launching in beta last summer, the platform uses an engine called MatchRank to determine job seekers’ personalities and competencies using data from their résumés, employment preferences and JobScript. A self-assessment tool similar to the Myers-Briggs test, JobScript analyzes an individual’s personality (motivations and values) and makes job recommendations based on that information. At the same time, the technology scrapes the web for job postings, attaches metadata to the postings and then filters them to candidates according to compatibility. To date, the website maintains approximately more than 300,000 job postings. Learn more about Chris and how Kellogg helped him get where he is today.
