LinkedIn recently released its inaugural Top MBA list, a data-backed ranking of graduate business programs that lead to career growth. In the U.S., Northwestern’s Kellogg School of Management ranked sixth. One factor that sets them apart is their focus on empathy as a teachable skill. In this episode, Nina and Dan highlight takeaways from Dan’s recent conversation with Francesca Cornelli, Dean of Kellogg. They discuss whether an MBA is worth the money, if companies can be empathetic, and how professionals can stay competitive in the face of rapidly changing technology.
