What you'll work on
Key topics and competencies students will acquire and develop during their learning journey.
Business Research & Market Analysis
You'll dive deep into the world of competitive analysis and market research. This includes identifying industry trends, understanding the hiring needs of different sectors (like law, biotech, or manufacturing), evaluating what tools staffing firms currently use, and analyzing where opportunities exist for a company like Paraform to grow. You'll learn how to gather data, extract insights, and turn complex information into a clear narrative about what the business should do next.
Strategic Thinking & Problem Solving
You'll be challenged to make real decisions that involve complexity, trade-offs, and ambiguity — just like an early hire at a startup would. Should Paraform enter a heavily regulated industry like healthcare? Is contract staffing a better opportunity than part-time employment? What risks are involved in going head-to-head with established platforms? You'll evaluate different paths and determine which is most viable, backed by logic, research, and business insight.
Executive Communication & Pitching
At the end of the program, you'll turn your team's research and strategy into a polished executive presentation. You'll write an internal strategy memo and deliver a live pitch to Paraform's actual leadership team. You'll practice how to organize your thoughts, structure a compelling narrative, and communicate clearly and confidently in a professional setting.
