Hi folks, tomorrow we have our first finance quiz worth 20%. As a result our syndicate group was back tonight studying as a team. We even shared a famous Poppa's Pizza (well famous in Dunedin) as a team. Syndicate teams form an important part of your life at the Otago MBA. Every paper (subject) has between 25-40% of assessment delivered via your syndicate team. The idea I think is getting everyone used to delivering work as part of a team. I am pretty pleased with my syndicate as we work hard but everyone stops for a laugh and a bit of fun which makes things really positive especially with the weight of assessable tasks we face. After term one we swap around and get put into new syndicates which will be hard as our team has already started to mesh together pretty well. If you are looking at the MBA at Otago - this element is great as it is be both enjoyable and challenging as everyone is smart and keen to have their opinions heard!
As a side note, Tapan, my mate from Mumbai and also Syndicate C member made this poster and as a result has assumed responsibility for all syndicate presentation design and layout :)
