“When you openly share the things that you are struggling with, and then see how accepting and helpful people can be, that makes a huge impression. I think the most important lesson I learned at the GSB was the power of vulnerability.” –Lauren Westbrook-McIntosh (MBA ’12) #gsbinthemoment #StanfordGSBLife Photo: @tonibirdphoto

"The single most influential experience at the GSB has been TALK. TALK is a weekly gathering where the MBAs meet and share their life stories, journeys, and lessons learned along the way. Through TALK, I’ve learned more about people than I have any other part of my life. I’ve learned that we all have a story. From those who have ventured far and against all odds to be here to those for who have had a privileged journey. I rejoice in the fact that despite where we come from, what opportunities we have or have not had, we all stand on the same ground now. And we all have the ability to change the lives, organizations and the world in our own way. As a TALK coach, I’ve had the honor of connecting with my classmates as they craft their own stories. It’s been so gratifying to help others drive to the answers to questions like WHO AM I? WHAT DRIVES ME? WHAT MATTERS TO ME? Our ability to share our life stories, in full color and raw honesty is what makes the GSB community special." –@akumord1, MBA '17 #GSBinthemoment #StanfordGSBLife
