About the event

⚡Deep school research and strategic networking are two of the most powerful ways to strengthen an MBA application. This live workshop shows you how to actually do them. This execution-focused session takes you inside the real research and networking process used by successful MBA applicants. Rather than focusing on high-level theory, as I did in Part 1, you will watch me work through real examples in real time. ⚠️ Important Note This workshop builds on the core research and networking framework I taught in Differentiate Your MBA Application: School Research & Networking (Part 1 of 2). You are welcome to attend Part 2 on its own. However, watching Part 1 first, live or via recording, is recommended so you can fully apply what is demonstrated in this session. ⚠️watch the recording of Part 1 to make this session the most effective. Message me if you would like a copy of the research template. https://www.joinleland.com/content/item/urn:contentEntry:69bace53c6b285e233a75c84?fromName=MBA During the workshop, you will see how I: 🔷 Use AI and navigate school websites to identify the most relevant courses, professors, centers, experiential programs, and career resources 🔷 Use LinkedIn and alumni networks to identify high-impact outreach targets based on background, goals, and timing 🔷 Decide who to contact now, who later, and who to skip 🔷 Personalize outreach messages to maximize response rates 🔷 Capture insights so they can be used effectively in essays and interviews 🔷 Recognize which findings meaningfully influence application strategy versus those that are simply interesting Throughout the session, I will highlight where specific insights commonly appear in essays, interviews, and networking conversations, and why certain details carry more weight with admissions committees. I may share brief example snippets to illustrate this, but the focus of the workshop is on the process that produces strong application content, not on writing the content itself. Bonus Offer ✅All attendees may request a free copy of the MBA Research & Networking Template. ⚡Spots are limited. Register now to gain the advantage that can set your MBA application apart.
