\"qualities<\/a>While all top-tier MBA programs are filled with smart students that have a strong quantitative background, the UNC Kenan-Flagler Business School<\/strong> throws an ampersand into the mix when it comes to listing the qualities of a successful MBA student<\/a>.<\/p>\n

With the introduction of the -&-<\/strong> as part of its recent branding efforts<\/a>, Kenan-Flagler is looking for book-smart candidates who are also collaborative, passionate and empathetic. \"This simple, one-character symbol represents the beautiful blend of contradiction our students bring to the table,\" writes Kelly Lynch<\/strong> in a recent post on the Kenan-Flagler MBA Blog.<\/p>\n

\"If you were to look at a Venn diagram of 'quantitative abilities' and 'qualitative abilities,' our students would fall within the intersection of the two circles,\" says Lynch. \"That is what makes them so spectacular; they can master both the Science & <\/strong>Heart of business.\"<\/p>\n

They understand a business\u2019 need for financial success &<\/strong> social responsibility.\u00a0 They have the knowledge to be accomplished in their field & <\/strong>the courage to do what is right.\u00a0 They not only learn in the classroom, but also take what they have learned &<\/strong> apply it to real life scenarios.\u00a0 Simply put, they are highly skilled in both book smarts & <\/strong>street smarts.\u00a0 Altogether, these are the qualities of a successful MBA student at UNC Kenan-Flagler.<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

If you\u2019re reading this and thinking that you don\u2019t quite fall into both of these categories, that\u2019s ok, says Lynch, who notes that these qualities are what UNC Kenan-Flagler strives to evoke and instill in students by the time they graduate.<\/p>\n
