I distinctly remember throughout my four years of college one of my professors, Professor Savan. Throughout our entire college careers as business majors, he diligently taught us many different frameworks and how to apply them in context of a business case. At the time, I think I did what many of us as college students do: cram everything I need to know in my mind days before the exam without fully understanding the significance of why we need these frameworks, information, and models.

Today, as a business analyst at Accenture, I fully understand the significance of not only KNOWING these frameworks, but being able to execute them as well and demonstrating to colleagues and clients alike that we are able of communicating structured though processes. My advice to all you business students out there: Pay attention to your Professor Savan.
