William & Mary Mason School of Business Media and Entertainment Junto Group

As part of my MBA experience at the College of William & Mary Mason School of Business, we are urged to create junto groups to discuss pressing issues of the day. The "junto" was common in the early days of the American Republic, with small groups gathering to research and discuss topics of their choice. This collaborative group would in turn educate each other, promoting learning and problem solving. Such groups were led by the likes of Benjamin Franklin.

Together with two other colleagues, I organized a discussion around all business facets of the Media & Entertainment industry. For more information on our research and results, check out our Media & Entertainment Junto Blog.

Our Junto team is pictured below:

"Connecting, creating, and contributing are the three core tasks that make or break a global leader." - Angel Cabrera, President - Thunderbird School of Global Management

"Do not follow where the path may lead. Go instead where there is no path and leave a trail." - Ralph Waldo Emerson

"Entrepreneurs are simply those who understand that there is little difference between obstacle and opportunity and are able to turn both to their advantage." - Machiavelli

“Your time is limited, so don’t waste it living someone else’s life. Don’t be trapped by dogma - which is living with the results of other people’s thinking. Don’t let the noise of other’s opinions drown out your own inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary.” - Steve Jobs, CEO of Apple

We are the music makers,
And we are the dreamers of dreams,
Wandering by lone sea-breakers,
And sitting by desolate streams;—
World-losers and world-forsakers,
On whom the pale moon gleams:
Yet we are the movers and shakers
Of the world for ever, it seems.
- Arthur O'Shaughnessy
