On Wednesday, February 26th, the Niblock Student Center held the “It’s All About Management” event. During this event, Gerald Burgess, a UNCC Alum, spoke to students regarding his experience as an undergraduate student at UNC Charlotte, how his career path has evolved, and his experience thus far with pursuing an MBA at UNC Charlotte.
While at UNCC, Burgess majored in Management and International Business. He is currently working as a certified Project Management Professional and the Director of Strategic Sourcing at JLL. JLL is a commercial real estate company in Charlotte. Burgess says his primary advice for students includes learning another language, studying abroad, as well as internship experience. Throughout his time at UNC Charlotte, Burgess had the opportunity to do all of these mentioned, and he believes it played a huge role in his professional and personal development.
Thank you so much to Gerald Burgess for coming out to speak to our students!
