  5. An Investment in Knowledge Pays the Best Interest: My Journey to Consulting in the UAE

    When I ventured into the world of INSEAD, the prevailing wisdom whispered that changing three pivotal dimensions of one's career - Location, Industry, and Function - was nothing short of a Herculean feat, if not outright impossible.  Yet, here I stand today, a suitcase in hand, ready to embark on the journey of my dreams - an achievement made possible by the unwavering support of the entire INSEAD community.

  6. What the First Week of an INSEAD MBA Really Looks Like

    The first week of the INSEAD MBA was definitely nothing like I had anticipated.  One of the first things that hits you is the parties.  I know. I know. Everyone talks about it, but no matter how many times you hear it, it’s not enough – brace yourself :). You can successfully party everyday if you want to. Every. Day.

  7. Embracing Growth: My Reflections after an Evening Run During the Executive MBA Journey

    Since I began my Executive MBA, I have been managing my time more efficiently than ever before. In addition to my full-time job, I find myself working most of nights and weekends for pre-readings and projects. I need to learn not only about finance, accounting, strategy, marketing, process and operations management, economics, and organisational courses, but I also need to continue developing leadership skills, doing peer coaching and self-reflection.

  9. My Summer Internship – The Power of Respecting and Preserving Cultural Heritage

    Since college, I have been trying to make a difference in social impact and sustainability. Starting from 2012, I volunteered in South Africa for one month to provide underprivileged kids with quality education. Subsequently, I participated in reforestation as well as marine conservation initiatives. It was then that I realised, compared to traveling abroad, it could be more impactful to help my local community first.

  10. "Become What You Are!“ - Rediscover Vitality in the Workplace

    When was the last time you felt truly alive? In harmony with yourself, in the flow with your professional tasks, completely in the present moment. At a recent workshop the facilitator asked exactly this question; and it shook me to the core. A simple question that leads directly to existential contemplations.  Am I living my life, or is it just "happening" to me? Am I fully engaged in it, or is it flowing by?
