Abhinav Parmar, MSCM Summer'23
Three years ago I made a commitment to serve people and communities. I am excited for the opportunity to represent and support my cohort. Here at Schulich we are all very busy. Busy with assignments and networking activities. It gets challenging to speak up. Speak about the things that matter and that trouble us, but are risky to say. We know that speaking up is important. We have experienced this in the last few weeks. It is challenging, especially when we are all making an effort to be better and to balance the different priorities. When I get elected I will ensure that our voices are heard and that we get the support we need to succeed. Let's make this year a great one. Thank you

Dear Fellow Schuligan, I am writing to express my interest in running for the position of Cohort Representative for the MACC Program. I am motivated to pursue this role because I am confident in my ability to make a positive impact. My leadership experience spans various groups and organizations. During my undergraduate studies, I served as a Director of Sprott Accounting Students Association and as the Vice President of the Nigerian Student Association. As Cohort Representative, I will ensure that the views and concerns of my cohorts are heard and addressed. I possess the qualities required to be an effective Cohort Representative. I am approachable, empathetic, and a good listener. I am also organized, responsible, and capable of balancing my academic responsibilities with my duties as a representative. My goal is to be a servant leader who is not only heard but also trusted and respected by my peers. Serving as Cohort Representative will not only allow me to hone my leadership skills but also help me to collaborate effectively with fellow Schuligans. If elected, I promise to dedicate myself fully to the role of Cohort Representative. I will work diligently to address student concerns, advocate for our needs, and strive to make our time in Schulich as positive and rewarding as possible. Thank you for considering my candidacy. I am excited about the possibility of serving with the leaders of the SSB – Graduate Business Council and eager to make a meaningful difference in our school community.
