Be open to getting out of your comfort zone. Embrace challenges as they can promote growth and clarity. Finally, never compare yourself with others – focus on your own journey and celebrate every step of the way.
Jorne Korzelius
Head of Marketing (Fitbit, Northern Europe) at Google
When you are immersed in the day-to-day work, it’s easy to focus solely on leading, getting things done and managing the business. Taking time for self-development often falls by the wayside. However, stepping away from work to focus on personal growth is immensely valuable.
Reinier Schoone
Head of IT PB Digital Channels International at ABN AMRO Bank N.V.
I am more self-aware and at ease with where I want to go. Being more confident about the direction that I am working in gives me peace of mind and that reflects in my day-to-day and how my team sees my leadership.
Marc Sinkewitz
Board Member at Sparkasse Neuwied
I’ve begun to understand how my past is a part of my future, and how I need to reflect on my past trigger points to create positive change for the future. Without doing this, it’s not really possible to be a good leader.
Stelios Sousamoglou
Head of Funding and Investments
I think as we progress in our lives and careers, we tend to become comfortable in our thinking and our ideas about how the world operates. Coming to INSEAD, you get exposed to a new, global perspective that really shakes things up and offers you a truly fresh perspective on things.
Cristina Miotto
Global Strategic Marketing Manager at The Dow Chemical Company in Horgen, Switzerland
Based on the school’s reputation and what my friend had shared with me, I expected the teaching and the materials to be first class. So yes, I had very high expectations. And they were met and exceeded in every sense. It’s simply world-class. The calibre and quality of the INSEAD experience are unique. It’s also so enriching to have the opportunity to go back to school in a sense, and to invest in yourself both personally and professionally. Doing that at INSEAD is just an outstanding experience.
