This week\u2019s Conversations with Goodman <\/em>podcast features Goodman graduate Naveen Khan (BBA \u201915).<\/p>\n

After graduating last year, Khan started working at Loblaw as senior analyst of promotions. She talks about using strategic and creative thinking in her job and how the Goodman School of Business has set her up well for her current role.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m happy because Goodman provided me with the diverse background and that skill set to allow me to enhance and go above and beyond at my job,\u201d says Khan. \u201cThis is where I was meant to be.\u201d<\/p>\n

Khan completed with a concentration in marketing but worked in the finance field during co-op so that she would graduate with a diverse background.<\/p>\n

\u201cI didn\u2019t want to go into the world of marketing without knowing how numbers impact decisions,\u201d she says. \u201cNumbers guide our strategy and directions.\u201d<\/p>\n

Khan also discusses her involvement with the Brock Innovation Group<\/a> (formerly known as the Brock U Entrepreneurship Club) where she played an instrumental role in organizing the Monster Pitch event, an event that has seen substantial growth in recent years.<\/p>\n

\u201cIf it wasn\u2019t for my student engagement and extracurricular experience, I wouldn\u2019t have had the co-op opportunities and if it wasn\u2019t for my co-op, I wouldn\u2019t have had my career today \u2013 it\u2019s a chain reaction,\u201d she says.<\/p>\n

This podcast is the latest in the\u00a0Conversations with Goodman<\/em>\u00a0series which is produced by the Goodman Marketing, Communications and Alumni Relations team and features guests from the Goodman community.
