August 08, 2019Why Curiosity is Important (Elyse Kane, MBA '87)
Hiring managers talk all the time that they want “curious” people on their teams. If you even Google “importance of curiosity,” you’ll get pages of results from places like Harvard, videos of thought-leaders like Bill Gates, and articles from psychology blogs about why it’s important for individuals to “be curiosity.”
Many of us have a sense of what “having curiosity” means, but what is curiosity and how can you make sure you are and stay curious?
In this episode, we speak with Zicklin alumna Elyse Kane (MBA ’87), who was most recently Vice President, Insights and Analytics, North America at Colgate Palmolive. With a professional background in consumer research as well as experimental psychology, Elyse discusses curiosity with us, including:
Why hiring managers want curious people on their teams
Why it is so important to be curious – both for individuals themselves and for teams at work
How curiosity is tied to making the world a better place
Ways individuals can flex and maintain their curiosity
