Many MBA applicants feel that they are purchasing a brand when they choose a business school. However, the educational experience you will have is what is crucial to your future, and no one will affect your education more than your professors. Today, we profile George Geis from the UCLA Anderson School of Management.
George Geis has been voted Outstanding Teacher of the Year five times while at UCLA Anderson, most recently in 2012. In the past, Geis has served as the associate dean and faculty director of the Anderson Executive MBA program as well as faculty director of the school’s Mergers and Acquisitions Executive Program. Geis has also maintained a mergers and acquisitions blog and a biotech corporate development blog.
One alumnus described Geis to mbaMission as an experienced investor and a funny and credible guy. The graduate added that he had very much enjoyed the guest speakers Geis brought to class, as well as the strategic analysis of the board game industry, covered in a case discussion about the game Trivial Pursuit.
