Summer Celebration, Appreciation and Braggings
Written on June 13, 2007
Once in a while I think it is appropriate to stop, look back and be proud and grateful over your latest accomplishments. In this regard I would like to mention a couple of recent major events.
Last Friday we finally celebrated the end of program ceremony for our Masters degree at the Norwegian School of Management. It was a great celebration at a restaurant in the sunny hills of Oslo. Thanks to all friends and co-students for making it a memorable evening, and thanks for all the moments we have shared together “assimilating” new knowledge at the library and spending late nights at various parties and get-togethers. (For my part this was my final return to academia for a while).
Secondly I would like to congratulate all my fellow students with their new positions and at the same time mention where I am heading myself. Last august I accepted an offer from Deloitte Consulting as a consultant in Strategy and Operations. I am very much looking forward to start working for all our fascinating clients, return to the consulting profession and would like to present my sincere appreciation for hiring me. In addition, since we (graduates at NSM/BI) are all eagerly talking about our new jobs I cannot help bragging a bit about my employer as well, recently being ranked the tenth most prestigious Management Consulting firm in the world, and the second most prestigious Technology Consulting firm in the world 
Well…all that is left now is to do some “minor” revisions of the final Master Thesis and hand it in before the deadline in September, and THEN academia will not see me for a while
