BUSINESS TRIP CALIFORNIA
Delphian students attend business seminar field trip in California, meeting inspiring professionals and learning firsthand about the world of business
T
his March, sixteen eager Business Seminar students led by Delphian’s Dean Jordan Siegel and Assistant Head of School Mark Siegel embarked on an eight-day trip to California’s Silicon Valley and the greater Los Angeles area.
The trip’s purpose is to help students explore various career paths, make informed decisions, and expand their horizons. It allows them to gain insights into how the world around them works. As Mark Siegel tells the students each year, “This trip is designed to help you create your future.” The students, not fully knowing what to expect but eager to learn, toured colleges, startups, large corporations, venture capital firms, and entertainment companies, enjoyed sit-down meals with Delphian alums, and even did an Imagination Campus class about teamwork at Disneyland. The trip included meetings with professionals from a wide range of businesses who shared information about their companies, advice for success, details of their unique career paths, and opportunities for students to ask these professionals questions and learn firsthand about the world of business.
