Biography

Jason Rife is a Professor of Practice in Management and Organizations and the Cox School’s Director of Business Presentation Education. He primarily focuses on teaching graduate and executive education students to build and deliver presentations. The first half of Rife’s career was spent in consulting and corporate roles with McKinsey, John Deere, and Exxon Mobil, frequently presenting to senior executives. He also served on MBA recruiting teams, identifying, assessing, and coaching talent from top business schools. His love of recruiting and coaching led him to leave the private sector for academia, initially as a career and case competition coach at the University of Florida, and eventually as the Assistant Dean of Career Management and Graduate Admissions at 澳门六合彩预测 Cox. 

Jason received his MBA from Duke University and his BBA from Texas Tech. He is the co-author of a book on developing presentations for case competitions and interviews.
