3. Why I Chose INSEAD To Do My MBA

    After nine years of professional experiences across journalism, the government sector and charity, I felt ready for the next level of accelerating my career to create a bigger impact. I have always been curious to learn, and I felt energised by the idea that I can take the questions, reflections and fresh ideas that I’ve accumulated at work over the years into a classroom setting, to freely discuss with other students and learn from them to.

    At INSEAD dreams do come true as we remain relentless in the pursuit of what sets our hearts on fire. After eight years in FMCG, entrepreneurship and coaching, I’m excited and grateful to share that two weeks ago, I’ve started my MBA at INSEAD, Europe Campus - one of the top programmes in the world.

  6. A Glimpse Into My MBA Learning Experience in P1

    We all know that over the years globalisation has resulted in connecting people all around the globe and bringing the world at the tip of the finger with the help of advanced technology, the internet as well as speedy access to information sharing and communicating.

  8. The Time Is Right for an EMBA

    We are all destined to achieve great things, at the right time.    In simple terms, the universe sends events (e.g., an EMBA) our way when ‘we are ready to receive those events’.

    As I was entering the final year of university, I thought I had a good idea of what I wanted going forward. Though my plans were not set in stone, I knew that I wanted to graduate, work for a few years and then maybe pursue a master’s degree.  Then the pandemic hit. As I saw more and more of my classmates struggling to find entry-level jobs, doubts began creeping in my mind. What had been a robust job market, at least in Canada, was not looking so good anymore.
