IN WHAT WAYS DO YOU THINK THE MASTER IN MANAGEMENT HAS CHANGED YOUR LIFE, PROFESSIONALLY AND PERSONALLY?
Studying at IE Business School has allowed me to achieve very attractive professional opportunities that I might not have had access to without the academic background received at this university. Since I finished the Master in Management in 2016, I belong to Altamar Capital, one of the leading global alternative assets manager in Europe. Being part of IE has also allowed me to establish relationships with students from different countries that have given me new perspectives to develop on a personal and human level. But the key is the different way of seeing things, the intellectual perspective, which makes you a lifelong transformer.
