Alumni Accolades
"The Lauder program feels like studying a master's degree in the United Nations. For those of us who were not born here and have lived everywhere, Lauder feels like a second home—all the different cultures and languages combined with a humanities-based curriculum form a wonderful complement to the traditional quantitative Wharton MBA, and make way for extremely well-rounded individuals who can do business from East LA to West Berlin and from South Africa to Northern China."

"The Lauder education helped me to look at business opportunities in emerging markets across the globe in a very different way. Although I graduated from the Portuguese program, soon after graduation I relocated to Russia to launch a series of business ventures. I know I was more effective and able to deal with many of the challenges we faced as I understood the value of learning the language and understanding the social, cultural, and political context of the environment I was operating in. As world business becomes increasingly global, Lauder's role in preparing business leaders for global challenges becomes more and more crucial. And I had a great time at Lauder! The global network of Lauder friends is something I value greatly."
