Description

Finance Business Partners face this question early on and throughout our careers.  Nick Mitrakis, Senior Vice President, Corporate Controller at WSP USA joins me to explore the pros and cons of these two supposedly dichotomous paths, and how it really boils down to what motivates you as an individual.   Spoiler alert:  Relax! You can explore both paths while building a great career.  Questions were generously submitted by students of Assistant Dean, Chris Bates and Professor Glenn Tyranski at Long Island University.   Join us for this hopefully inspirational 20-minute investment in your career!
