Build Live, Interactive Claude Artifacts for Daily Use [7/22/2026] (Recording)

After this session, you will know how to build Claude artifacts that run as live, interactive tools you can use every day, not just static outputs you copy and paste. We will cover how to prompt Claude to generate functional interfaces, how to structure artifacts for reuse across recurring workflows, and how to move from experimenting with AI to deploying it in a practical daily system. Attending live means you can bring your specific use case, whether that is automating a research process or building a personal decision tool, and get real-time feedback on whether your approach will actually work. This coach builds and ships AI automation systems as an active practitioner, and this session is a direct look at how that thinking works in practice.

Master Telling Your Story: Improve Your Networking and Interviews [9/14/2026] (Recording)

After this session, you'll know how to shape your personal narrative so it holds up in both networking conversations and formal interviews for investment banking roles. We'll cover how to frame your "why banking" story with specificity, how to connect your background to the skills bankers actually look for, and how to adjust your delivery depending on whether you're in a coffee chat or a final-round interview. Attending live means you can bring your actual story and get real-time feedback on what's landing and what's getting in your way, context a recording simply cannot replicate. The coach works with banking candidates regularly and will share the patterns that separate the narratives that resonate from the ones that stall, which is worth more than any prepared script.

GMAT Scoring Isn't About Getting Everything Right: Why Top Scorers Skip [7/28/2026] (Recording)

60-minute Leland Event | Live with Q&A | Hosted by Josh P. Somewhere in your last mock, one question ate four minutes of your life. You knew you should let it go. You didn't — because walking away feels like giving points back. Here's what the scoring algorithm knows that you don't: your GMAT score isn't a count of right answers. The GMAT is adaptive. Every right answer pushes you toward harder questions; every wrong answer pulls you back toward easier ones. Your score isn't how many you got — it's the difficulty level you can hold. That flips two things most test-takers get backwards: a wrong answer at the top of your range isn't failure, it's evidence you're playing at your ceiling. And the four minutes you sink into one unwinnable question quietly costs you two or three winnable ones. (On the GMAT you can't leave a question blank — "skipping" means deciding fast, picking, and banking the time. That decision is a trainable skill.) In this 60-minute session, I'll put the scoring engine on screen — the same scoring model I coach my 1:1 students on Leland with — and then we'll train the skill live: real problems, you vote "fight or fold" in the chat, and we run the skip decision together. You'll learn: - How the adaptive algorithm actually sets your score — and why "answer everything right" is the wrong goal - The GMAT Potential map: why wrong answers at your edge mean you're exactly where you should be - The real cost of over-investing in one hard question (it's never just one question) - A two-question skip rule you can apply on your very next practice set Whether you're four weeks in or staring down a retake — if the clock beats you before the content does, this session is for you. Bring your questions: the last 15 minutes are open Q&A. Josh P. — GMAT Coach on Leland · Top 3 · 5.0★ · Booth MBA · Ex-BCG

From Background to Business School: How to Build a Credible MBA Narrative [8/20/2026] (Recording)

Most "Why MBA" answers fail before they start, not because applicants can't write, but because they're answering the wrong question. As a Ross alum and admissions interviewer, I can tell you: the goals essay isn't about where you want to go. It's about whether adcom believes you'll get there, and whether an MBA is the logical next step for someone like you. This session breaks down how to build a goals narrative that's specific, credible, and connects your past to your future in a way that doesn't sound manufactured. What Adcom Is Actually Evaluating When They Read Your Goals Essay: It's not the goal itself, it's whether your story hangs together. -The three questions every adcom reader is asking while they read your answer -Why "I want to develop leadership skills" and similar answers kill otherwise strong applications -The difference between a goal that's ambitious and one that's believable The Architecture of a Strong Why MBA Story: Most applicants lead with too much context. Here's why that doesn't work and what to do instead. -How to connect your past experience to your post-MBA goal in a way that feels inevitable, not invented -The difference between a career change story and a career progression story, and how to tell yours -Why specificity is the single most important thing you can bring to this essay Where Applicants Lose Adcom's Trust: A weak goals essay doesn't just lose points, it raises questions about your whole application. -How vague goals undermine even a strong resume and work history -How to handle "why now" when there's no clean answer -What to do if your goals have shifted since you started the application Making It Concrete: A framework you can use immediately to test whether your story is working. -How to gut-check your narrative before you put it on paper -What a strong vs. weak Why MBA story actually looks like, side by side -The one question to ask yourself before you finalize anything

Stop Freezing on Case Frameworks: How to Know Where to Start [9/1/2026] (Recording)

When I first started casing, I would hear a question and completely freeze. I had no idea where to start, what framework to use, or even what a “good” answer was supposed to sound like. I genuinely thought there was some secret code to cracking cases that everyone else seemed to understand except me. Over time, I realized casing isn’t about memorizing the perfect framework or magically knowing the answer. It’s about learning how to break down an unfamiliar problem, organize your thoughts, and work through it step by step. In this livestream, I’ll share the approach that helped casing finally click for me. We’ll talk through frameworks, how to actually answer different types of case questions, what to do when you feel stuck, and how to structure your thinking without sounding rehearsed. My goal is for you to leave feeling like casing is something you can learn—not some mysterious skill you either have or you don’t.

How Top 1% Applicants Build Cohesive MBA Application Narratives [6/9/2026] (Recording)

Lost on the LSAT? How to Always Know Your Next Move [10/12/2026] (Recording)

Getting stuck on the LSAT usually isn't a knowledge problem, it's a diagnosis problem: knowing which section is actually holding your score back and what specifically is going wrong there. This session focuses on that diagnostic step, working through how to read a practice test or PT report and turn it into a concrete plan for what to work on next, rather than just redoing more questions and hoping something clicks. Taren scored a 180 and has coached enough test-takers to recognize the same handful of patterns showing up again and again, in reading comprehension traps, logical reasoning assumptions, or pacing under pressure. Hearing how he actually traces a wrong answer back to its root cause is a useful model for anyone who feels stuck without knowing exactly why.

The Other 50%: The Mindset That Wins PE Interviews [9/24/2026] (Recording)

This livestream focuses on the often-overlooked mental side of private equity recruiting. Candidates spend significant time preparing technicals, deals, and behavioral questions, but how you manage pressure, confidence, rejection, and the importance you place on any single opportunity can have just as much impact on how you perform. We’ll cover practical frameworks for approaching recruiting with the right mindset, including how to want an opportunity without feeling like you need it, create optionality across recruiting processes, build confidence in what you uniquely bring to the table, reframe interview anxiety as useful energy, and develop a simple pre-interview routine to put yourself in the right state. We’ll also discuss how to separate what you can control from what you can’t, learn from rejection without letting it affect your confidence, and maintain perspective throughout a recruiting process that can often feel highly personal. By the end of the session, you’ll leave with a more resilient approach to recruiting, practical techniques you can use before and during interviews, and a framework for performing with greater confidence regardless of the outcome.
