"More than ever before, I am booking guest speakers who might be potential employers for my students. I am looking closely at the case studies I use in class, not just for their educational value, but for their relevance in job interviews. I want to make sure that the presentations my students prepare for class will be equally valuable to impress the people they will be interviewing with for internships and jobs."
