UGA Institute for Leadership Advancement

Congratulations to Samantha, our PR specialist. We are going to miss you!

Rachel shared an overview of brand management and gave students a realistic view of that sector of marketing. She gave students a behind-the-scenes look at product development and what it takes to lead cross-functional teams in a fast-moving, consumer-focused environment.
 
Her ability to translate real-world experience into actionable insight gave our students a clearer understanding of how to apply their skills and encouraged them to do their own research during the job search to learn about great opportunities.  Thank you, Rachel, for investing in the next generation of leaders!

We enjoyed having Garrett Williams as an ILA Alum of the day!

Garrett connected with students to share how he’s leveraged his experiences, from consulting at Bain & Company to corporate strategy and innovation at AGBO, and now pursuing a Master’s in Global Affairs at Tsinghua University as a Schwarzman Scholar. He offered thoughtful insights on navigating global opportunities, exploring creative career paths, and leading with curiosity.

We’re grateful to Garrett for investing in our students and sharing perspectives that help them think bigger about their own leadership journeys.
