“Kyler successfully completed our Spring 2018 Bruin Development Academy in Consulting. He was engaged and present during the three sessions, and learned about how to succeed in consulting from professionals at Accenture, Deloitte, and BCG. He will bring new consulting industry knowledge and enhanced skills to his next project and organization. Kyler was a stand out participant in the academy, and he impressed me throughout the program with his leadership and work ethic. I look forward to seeing what Kyler achieves in the future and how he will continue to make an impact at UCLA and beyond. ”

How can small business owners develop their skills in their area of expertise?
One of my most important mindsets when learning a new skill is that there is no true ‘end point’ where you’ve ‘learned everything there is to learn’ about that skill. The process of learning is ever-evolving and never-ending. Just like you don’t wake up one day after eating healthy food and say you’ve achieved your health target, you’ll never have one day where you know everything about any subject. While this may sound daunting, I think it presents an opportunity to enjoy the learning process and continue being thirsty for knowledge!
