Karunaratne Takeaway - Aliya Levinstein

    The greatest thing that I took away from our discussion last Thursday was the Bernadine's idea of the "Big 5."  I believe that the ideas she discussed are crucial to succeeding in any sort of work environment.  They encourage me to do more and be more than just good enough; they inspire greatness.  I think that following the five ideas that she outlines can really make someone stand out in a work environment instead of just being the typical employee. In such a competitive atmosphere, it is crucial to be as marketable as possible.  Presenting my "best self" by identifying with her "Big 5" is something that I am definitely going to consider going forward in my experiences.
