What were your initial thoughts about the internship?<\/span><\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

I was both excited and a little apprehensive at the thought of meeting so many new people after a year of Covid-19 restrictions. The situation felt surreal, especially since the internship started remotely on Zoom. I felt a bit overwhelmed at first, but there was nothing to be worried about. From the moment I met the team, I was immediately put at ease\u2014everyone was unbelievably warm and welcoming.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Given that most of my course had been focused on developing theoretical management knowledge (and from the comfort of my home, thanks to Covid-19), I was really looking forward to gaining practical experience from an influential local organization. As the internship progressed, I hoped to learn more about how More Music developed long-term, meaningful relationships with the community and how the community shaped the work they do.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
