Personal Reflections on the value of an MBA

Charlotte Nkuna - I studied my MBA in 2003/4, at the Gordon Institute of Business Science (GIBS). At the time of my studies, I was marketing manager at Novartis Animal Health. Being a veterinarian, I had picked up some business-management skills working at Novartis. It was after enrolling for the MBA programme that I realised how limited my business understanding was. I realised how diverse the backgrounds of the students were.
The diverse, stimulating discussions were invaluable. I met some very successful individuals. I had always considered myself a high achiever, but in the programme I came to realise that outside my world, people were doing great things and breaking new ground. In the programme I made new friends, business partners and acquaintances I have kept to this day.
