宾夕法尼亚州大学沃顿商学院,自2018年在评比中打败哈佛、耶鲁等世界最尖端的大学,被公认为真正的世界第一商学院之后,沃顿商学院更是进一步提高了录取门槛,使其成为了无数学子多年的奋斗目标和梦想。
而今天,小编带来了一篇沃顿官方于官网发布的MBA工商管理硕士dissertation。通过翻译、解析该篇文章,我们即将看到,什么使沃顿如此特殊,沃顿学生们对一些普遍的市场问题又有什么奇思妙解。
Teamwork is at the core of the Wharton MBA experience with each student contributing unique elements to our collaborative culture. How will you contribute to the Wharton community? (400 words)
问:团队合作是沃顿商学院MBA课程的核心,每个学生都为我们的合作文化贡献了独特的元素。你将如何为沃顿社区做出贡献?(400字)
One of my most satisfying professional experiences was strengthening my XXXX Team. Being the only female and expat in the team, I initially faced resistance, but as I embraced the culture and understood what mattered most to them, I was soon welcomed in the team. I identified their strengths and divided responsibilities, motivating them to take ownership of their work, in contrast to their earlier practice of everyone doing everything together. This improved team efficiency and enhanced their skills and enabled us to deliver more challenging projects in lesser time. Through this experience, I learned the value of teamwork and earned their love and respect.
我最满意的职业经历之一就是加强我的XXXX团队。作为团队中唯一的女性和外籍人士,我最初遇到了阻力,但随着我接受了这种文化并理解他们最看重的东西,我很快就在团队中受到了欢迎。我明确了他们的优势,划分了职责,激励他们对自己的工作承担责任,而不是像他们以前那样,每个人一起做所有的事情。这提高了团队的效率,增强了他们的技能,并使我们能够在更少的时间内交付更具挑战性的项目。通过这次经历,我学到了团队合作的价值,也赢得了他们的喜爱和尊重。
At Wharton, I plan to share my diverse experience of the oil and gas industry. The concept of offshore rigs is still alien to many. By sharing my experience of performing a physically demanding job, managing 24x7 operations, leading male dominated teams in foreign lands and harsh offshore environment, I will add value to the Wharton classroom. With YYYY, I also learned to manage large scale operations, plan resources with 3 months-5 years outlook and deal with Joint Venture. During the oil downturn of 2014, YYYY witnessed drastic cost reduction and many organizational changes. In the classroom of ‘Managing Organizational Change’, I will share our approach to face these changes by focusing on new, innovative and sustainable methods, and technologies.#p#分页标题#e#
在沃顿商学院,我打算分享我在石油和天然气行业的丰富经验。近海钻机的概念对许多人来说仍然是陌生的。通过分享我从事体力要求高的工作、管理全天候运营、领导男性主导的团队在异国他土和恶劣的离岸环境中的经验,我将为沃顿的课堂增添价值。YYYY也让我学会了大规模运营的管理,用3个月-5年的展望规划资源,处理合资事宜。在2014年的石油低迷期,YYYY见证了大幅的成本削减和许多组织的变化。在“组织变革管理”的课堂上,我将通过关注新的、创新的和可持续的方法和技术来分享我们面对这些变化的方法。
Beyond classroom, I plan to lead the Wharton Energy club as the ‘Conference Chair’ and would invite distinct leaders of the industry, including YYYY’s ex CEO and BCG partner, both of whom are Wharton alumni. As an ardent scuba diver, I look forward to introducing the Wharton community to Scuba Diving through the Wharton Surf and Beach Club by organizing diving and snorkeling trips. Furthermore, I am excited to join the Wharton Dance studio to pursue my love for classical dance and share my knowledge of ‘Kathak’ in fusion with Bollywood dance.
在课堂之外,我计划以“会议主席”的身份领导沃顿能源俱乐部,并邀请行业的不同领袖,包括YYYY的前首席执行官和BCG合伙人,他们都是沃顿校友。作为一名潜水爱好者,我期待着通过沃顿冲浪和海滩俱乐部组织潜水和浮潜活动,向沃顿社区介绍水肺潜水。此外,我很高兴能加入沃顿舞蹈工作室,追求我对古典舞蹈的热爱,并将我对“卡萨克”的认识与宝莱坞舞蹈相融合。
Back in ZZZZ, I organized North India’s largest cultural festival ‘Rendezvous’ and choreographed our team’s ‘Group Dance’ performance. Continuing this effort at YYYY, I organized this year’s team off-site for 100+ employees and persuaded my colleagues for a dance sequence, which was the first ever ‘in house’ performance of the department. I would love to organize many such events at Wharton, fostering team spirit and would contribute to the close-knit Wharton community through my unique experiences and engaging skills.
之前在ZZZZ,我组织了印度北部最大的文化节“Rendezvous”,并编排了我们团队的“团体舞蹈”表演。在YYYY继续这一努力,我组织了今年100多名员工的非现场团队,并说服我的同事们一起跳了一段舞蹈,这是该部门有史以来的第一次“内部”演出。我很愿意在沃顿组织许多这样的活动,培养团队精神,并将通过我独特的经验和迷人的技能为沃顿这个紧密联系的社区做出贡献。#p#分页标题#e#
文章的最后,小编想说,从这一篇dissertation中我们可以看到,比起完整的逻辑和清晰的表达,有一点我们无法忽视,那就是无与伦比的领袖气质。这也使全世界数所顶尖商学院招生的标准之一。所以,如果同学正在以世界顶尖商学院为努力目标,那么努力提升领导能力和领导才能可以成为一个努力目标。
