In 2018, I joined ISB for exactly 3 reasons

1. Get into BCG

2. Take a step back from work and reimagine my thinking towards problems in business and society

3. Build a lifelong network that goes beyond age, region, and sector Many young professionals struggle to crack above 3 goals since they wait to hit the right -age to do an MBA, -Score relevant GMAT scores, -Attain financial aid to get into ISBs of the world! And this is exactly why we at GGI run Impact MBA Scholars to solve these 3 problems by- 1. Onboarding 19+ top employment partners in #managementconsulting and social impact 2. Providing #upskilling with interactive business Masterclasses with top leaders (eg- BCG Ex-Chairman, BlackRock Chairman) 3. Plethora of offline and online #networking parties and get together of cohort who join from various geographies, universities and industries I will be very transparent. I have been very fortunate in my 20s with opportunities but I do realize my struggles with GMAT and how many friends of mine dropped out of ISB because they couldn't afford it. And our purpose at Global Governance Initiative is to provide inclusive and quality management education for all !
