Where do you see yourself in 5 years?
In 5 years time I see myself as a senior manager in an international company, or, perhaps, I
could already be running my own.
So, you finished MBA classes in 2018, tell us about your experience after your
MBA Degree Program.
After having completed the SSM MBA program, I feel like my perspective on a lot of things
has broadened and I have learnt a lot not only regarding finance, but also unexpected
subjects like philosophy. The leadership course has been an eye opener, and I have used the
skillset acquired through the program in my current job, motivating colleagues and leading
various projects for the school. Knowing that I can now add MBA amongst my titles brings
me great pride, as well as gratitude for the helpful and welcoming atmosphere I found at
SSM.
If you could describe your experience in Rome during your MBA how would
you sum it up?
It has been a great year, a year of change. Working during the day and attending the MBA in
the evening, both working and studying on weekends, it was very tough at times, but it was
worth it. I had collaborative course mates, great lecturers, and a lot of support from friends
and family. This led me to push myself and discover my capabilities. I’d like to add that it was
fun too. If I could, I would do it all over again!
