缅北强奸 business majors recognized among more than 25 national finalists
Four 缅北强奸 students, Logan Minford, Anthony Florkowski, Tyler Johnson, and Ivan Zhevnov, achieved 6th place in the Finance Case Competition at the Future Business Leaders of America, Inc. (FBLA) National Leadership Conference.
"It's been a joy to support 缅北强奸's FBLA collegiate competitors this week," said Michelle Conway, Phi Beta Lambda Advisor and Executive Director of Student and Client Services at the O'Pake Institute. "Their hard work, teamwork, and dedication stood out as they competed against over 25 finalists and placed at the national level."
The Finance Case Competition provides FBLA members with the opportunity to review a case study and present their findings to a panel of judges. The case study incorporates many aspects of finance such as financial management, financial institutions, financial services, investments, etc.
"Participating in FBLA was such a fulfilling experience," said Tyler Johnson. "It was an absolute honor to be presented with the awards given. We felt extremely proud of our Finance Case Competition and the work we put into it. Personally, I gained a brand new perspective on what leadership is and how I can inspire others. Many of the problems and questions presented to me through my competitions had a direct correlation to what I have been learning in class. So it was great to see that what I am learning can be applicable to the real world."
In addition to the 6th place group win, Johnson earned 10th place in the Future Business Executive Presentation. This competitive event is where outstanding FBLA members who have demonstrated leadership qualities, participation in FBLA, and evidence of knowledge and skills essential for successful careers in business are recognized. It consists of pre-judged materials, objective test and presentation (interview) components.
"My Future Business Executive Presentation was very challenging, but rewarding as well. There were many amazing candidates, so to be placed amongst the top ten of them was very gratifying," said Johnson.
