Why did you choose to attend this MBA program?
To learn the skills and tools necessary to build and run social enterprises.
What was your favorite part about the experience?
Networking, learning about teamwork and leadership, and how to run a business.
How are you applying the tools/skills you learned in the program, post-MBA?
I apply tools and skills from the program every day. Just today I was in a meeting and referenced the business canvas model I created with my team in Module 2, for RevitaFiber, and how some of the questions we received about the business applied to the project I am working on now.
What would you tell someone who is considering the Sustainable Innovation MBA?
Definitely do it.
