We tried a bit of an experiment a few years ago. We called it ‘coffee time with an exec’.

The idea was that we would ask all of the students on a particular students tour (in this case, it was 20) to nominate three industries they were interested in. We then reached out to our network and made sure that each individual student was matched to someone from one of the three industries they chose. We would then make a time for the student to go and meet this person and ask them some questions one-on-one.

It was a great success and in 2015, we will be re-introducing it on certain programs in consultation with the academic in charge of those programs.

Many of the post-grad students on a recent international study tour were happy to integrate a full blown consulting project into their study tour.  “I felt I learned a lot by being able to work with people from industry in China and see how they did things”, said one grad student.  “For me, it was really eye opening and very different to what I was used to back home. Even as an ethnic Chinese Singaporean, I was still blown away by how different my Chinese experience was from those operating in mainland China”.

Great news!  After some 3 months of too-ing and fro-ing between us/our client university and a large multinational auto manufacturer, we have finally landed a consulting project for a group of 5 students.  All of the students have a particular interest in automotive and were keen to make this the focus of their efforts.

Well done to all involved!
