オバマが来た！見た！聞いた！ 大学での「大ウケ」スピーチに学ぶ3つのコツ

MBA受験生が熱狂したスピーチとは？

   さて、私はといえば、MBAに来たころはミーティングやクラスで発言するのがやっとで、気のきいたスピーチをすることなどとても想像できなかったのですが、最近では自分でも驚くほど笑いをドッカンドッカン取れるようになってきました。以下、世界中からミシガン大学にビジットしてくるMBA受験生たちに行った私のスピーチです。毎回10人～20人の在校生が自己紹介とミシガン大学MBAの良さを語ったのですが、他の学生を圧倒する歓声に、入学審査官から「ミシガン大学MBAに就職して、一緒に学生をリクルーティングしないか」と誘われてしまいました（笑）。

   Hi! I'm Ken from Tokyo, Japan. I worked at a Japanese advertising agency. Almost all the students here are discussing their brilliant career changes after graduation, but I'm FORTUNATELY sponsored by the agency, so UNFORTUNATELY I need to go back to the same company. （ここで笑い＆拍手が起きる）

   I'd like to let you know that Ross is much more DIVERSE than I had expected before coming to Ross. （キーメッセージ） For example, my MAP project is for a famous delivery pizza chain in US, and the team consists of 6 people with 7 nationalities: American, Mexican, Greek, Ukrainian, Belgian Lebanese, and Japanese. First 2 weeks it was CHAOS. If one member casted his idea, the other guy SHOT DOWN the idea from a different point of view. （ここで再び笑い＆拍手）

   In a field research trip, we gathered at a hotel room and talked over night to understand the difference of our cultural and business backgrounds. After this, we became a well-organized team and the project made a success. Our project is featured in MAP brochure! I learned how to manage a globally DIVERSIFIED team by this experience. （キーメッセージ） It's crucial for us to survive in the global business world.

   Please come back to Ann Arbor as an incoming student. This is a really HEARTWARMING community, though the weather is a little bit COLD! （最後の笑い＆拍手）
