Foreword

Welcome to our Class of 2023 Global Talent book, which serves to introduce you to a group of ambitious, talented, and creative professionals who seek to advance their careers whilst taking up the responsibility of leading in a challenging global landscape. By joining The Exeter MBA programme, they commit to helping create a fairer, more sustainable and healthier world. They develop a better understanding of the ways in which rapid environmental, technological and societal changes impact and disrupt existing business models. As part of their personal transformation, they have been supported through a year of discovery, innovation, enterprise, collaboration and growth.

MBA students at Exeter engage and work closely with our expert faculty and our wide network of global business partners to deepen and apply their knowledge, skills and behaviours.

Our Class of 2023 MBA participants have come to Exeter from around the world. They bring with them an exceptional, diverse range of business and management experience, together with a curious mind, a sense of purpose and a responsible global outlook. I would like to recommend them to you, and hope you find opportunity to engage and work with this talented group of leaders.

If you would like to discuss how we can facilitate your talent search, please contact me.
