Listen "The PhD Project (with Blane Ruschak)"
Episode Synopsis
How do we encourage and increase the diversity of business faculty on college campuses? What is the purpose of The PhD Project? How do we encourage more high school graduates to consider careers in accounting?
To help answer these questions, we have Blane Ruschak joining us on The Balancing Act Podcast. Blane is the president of The PhD Project. The PhD Project encourages and supports historically underrepresented candidates on their journey to acquiring a PhD in business. Blane is also the former executive director of campus recruiting for KPMG in the U.S.
Tune into episode 152 to hear Blane's story, his "rocket-booster" moment, and his thoughts on improving the diversity of business college faculty and solving the accountancy talent shortage.
