"As I browsed over the MBA Program brochure prior to applying to Stanford GSB, the GMP section definitely grabbed my attention. Shortly after I moved from Spain to the Farm and I took the appropriate electives, did my Australian GMIX and met classmates from all over the world. No doubt earning the GMP certificate prepared me well for the cultural experience of living and working in Seoul upon graduation."
