The University of South Alabama鈥檚 Mitchell College of Business brought business to campus on Tuesday, Oct. 27, with Austal 新加坡六合彩开奖资料 President Craig Perciavalle as the inaugural speaker in its new Executive Leadership Series.

More than 300 students attended Perciavalle鈥檚 hour-long presentation about Austal 新加坡六合彩开奖资料, the ships it builds and how students can enter the job market successfully. The presentation was held in the ballroom of the University鈥檚 Student Center.

鈥淔inish school and learn to discipline yourself because it鈥檚 all about competition today,鈥� Perciavalle told the students. He advised them to learn about companies where they hope to work, especially if internships are available. 鈥淵ou can be the sweetest person on the planet, but if you don鈥檛 fit the company鈥檚 culture, then it鈥檚 not going to work for you. Get out there and do the internships and see what you want to do when you grow up.鈥�

Dr. Bob Wood, dean of the Mitchell College of Business, said Perciavalle is indicative of the type of business leaders the new series will bring to campus each semester.

鈥淭his series will give our students, staff and faculty the opportunity to hear firsthand the experiences of today鈥檚 corporate leaders,鈥� Wood said. 鈥淪tudents can gain valuable insights of successfully incorporating knowledge into practice. We want to bring real-work knowledge into the classroom.鈥�
