"The high expectations of my HBS instructors and fellow classmates, as well as the overall level of discourse, were truly inspiring. I had the opportunity to serve as discussion leader for my group, which significantly strengthened my leadership ability. I found I could direct the conversation in ways that empowered my team, even when the topics were new to me. When the program ended, I felt more confident that I could lead effectively in any setting. For me, this program was a life-enhancing experience."
