20200424a- Interview with David Potter

I interview David Potter, a fellow student at the Melbourne Business School undertaking the part time MBA. David has always lived in Melbourne. He and his family have always had a love for the outdoors, traveling and being active.

David went on to do a Science Degree at University of Melbourne and later Monash University. But his passion for Lifesaving led him from volunteering as a little nipper through to being the club captain, trainer and chief instructor, that included sitting on the committee.

David’s love for the organisation led him to go on and work for Life Saving Victoria where he works with volunteers and manages project’s. It was from his friend’s and peers he considered doing an MBA. It was a manager in Surf Lifesaving that pushed him to broaden and grow his professional skill sets by doing an MBA.

David chose to do the part time MBA at Melbourne Business School as it was a full face program that suited David’s choice of learning, to interact and draw on the experience of both the faculty and fellow students at Melbourne Business School.

Being in isolation and working from home, David confesses he may have went on a little shopping spree. His most valued purchase was the essential work from home coffee machine.
