The MBA program has changed my mindset and approach to problem solving. Prior to this, I had attended other entrepreneurship trainings but none was as relevant and structured as this MBA. It's helped me define my social impact, bringing me so much satisfaction as I built a profitable business. I would recommend this MBA to anyone who is looking for a practical approach to incubate an idea to a successful business or to add value to their existing organizations.
