A Wall Street career remains one of the top choices for MBA and law graduates as well as those with advanced STEM degrees. While high-paying and glamorous, most such careers are brief and involve job-hopping from one investment bank to another.
What kind of personal and technical skills are in demand on Wall Street, especially to survive over the long-term? When to pursue jobs in another industry, hopefully before a layoff? What are the work and lifestyle options after a Wall Street career? These and related issues will be discussed by Christopher Dixon, Chairman of Stone Acres Farm,
Earlier Christopher was a Managing Director at Gabelli Group Capital Partners, focused on early stage investing in media and entertainment companies. Until 2003, he worked as an investment banker and analyst at UBS, Paine Webber and Kidder Peabody, covering media companies. Christopher earned an MBA from NYU Stern and undergraduate degree from the University of Pennsylvania.
Founded in 1765, Stone Acres is a 63-acre working farm in Stonington, CT. Its farmstand offers natural grown greens and vegetables, eggs, flowers, honey, dairy, and local meat.
