Experience during the program

My experience during the Harvard MBA program was transformative, both professionally and personally. I entered the program seeking to sharpen my leadership skills, broaden my global perspective, and build a network of peers who shared the drive to make meaningful impact. Harvard exceeded those expectations.

The case method was a standout feature—it pushed me to think critically, speak with confidence, and make decisions under uncertainty. Every class felt like a real-world boardroom, filled with diverse perspectives and rich debate. The faculty were not just subject-matter experts, but also deeply committed to student development.

Outside the classroom, the ecosystem at Harvard was unparalleled. I took part in cross-disciplinary initiatives like the i-Lab, worked on global immersions that took me to developing economies, and collaborated with classmates who were former military officers, entrepreneurs, and social impact leaders. Each interaction expanded my understanding of what leadership means in a complex world.

To future applicants, I would suggest you come with clarity on what you want to explore—but also the humility to be changed. Be authentic in your application, and once admitted, take full advantage of every opportunity. The program will meet you where you are, but it will also stretch you to become the leader you aspire to be.
