How was your overall experience of the program?
This program has been a journey of learning for me, from listening to everyone’s experiences to retrospecting internally based on feedback received from others. I was humbled by people’s stories who were so modest even after having years of work experience.
Was there anything that stood out to you in this program?
Yes, when I started the program and moved to Boston, I was worried if the other participants would connect with me because I was younger than most of them. But upon meeting them, they were the friendliest people from 9 countries from 4 different continents, and I never felt out of place. Even the teaching staff was easy to communicate with and provided us with life takeaways.
How was your peer group experience?
My experience was great as I had the honor of interacting with every person both formally and informally. We discussed various topics, from personality development to our vision of the world we want to build. I never felt like just a student; rather, I felt like I was interacting with my peers.
