We\u2019re a consulting firm, so we need to sell, but we want to deliver the best user experience.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Paloma certainly learned a lot in the program, both inside and outside the classroom. \u201cI learned how to work, and more specifically, work with people from all over the world. I think that\u2019s my biggest takeaway from the program\u2014learning how to work.\u201d The program also taught her to listen carefully and be open to the opportunity to learn from people with different perspectives.
