But when he began to explore university options outside of the UK, he realized that studying an MBA abroad could open his worldview and job prospects. This was the first step on a path that took him to Madrid and <a href=\"https:\/\/landings.ie.edu\/masterland-programs-in-business-management-cro?utm_source=google&amp;utm_medium=cpc&amp;utm_campaign=AO-PROS-SEM-BRA-HQ-REGLR-TIER1-ESP-WFORM-LEAD-PW-MAS-BUS-BMNG-ALLP&amp;utm_id=8301386093&amp;ad_group_id=146282458072&amp;ad_id=646791828659&amp;placement_id=&amp;network=g&amp;gclsrc=aw.ds&amp;gad_source=1&amp;gclid=CjwKCAiAlPu9BhAjEiwA5NDSA65_J3pv74el3PmUq6NsE3G5xpEafpCPUoIJNhUlnzlPIoq1KL8nPBoC3CIQAvD_BwE\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">IE Business School<\/a>. He&#8217;s now to working in sustainable energy at Vestas in Copenhagen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here, Amar shares how his experiences at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ie.edu\/business-school\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">IE Business School<\/a> helped shape his global mindset, expanded his personal and professional horizons and primed him to thrive in an interconnected world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-could-you-tell-us-how-you-ended-up-in-your-current-role-in-copenhagen\">Could you tell us how you ended up in your current role in Copenhagen?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;I currently work in Copenhagen, Denmark, at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vestas.com\/en\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Vestas<\/a>, a global leader in wind turbine manufacturing. I joined in January 2023, and my role is within the commercial strategy area of their service business. Moving to Copenhagen was a leap of faith\u2014I didn\u2019t know anyone here, but the opportunity to work in renewable energy and live in the EU was too exciting to pass up. Before this, I worked in London for a startup called Hugo Energy, where I managed projects and helped launch an energy app that connects to smart meters to promote energy efficiency.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-what-motivated-you-to-join-ie-business-school\">What motivated you to join IE Business School?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;I started my <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ie.edu\/business-school\/programs\/mba\/international-mba\/\">International MBA<\/a> at IE Business School in September 2019. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.forbes.com\/colleges\/ie-university\/ie-business-school\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">IE Business School<\/a> stood out because of its diverse environment and global reputation. What I didn\u2019t know at the time was how the world would change in 2020, and how that would affect my <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ie.edu\/uncover-ie\/studying-in-madrid-discover-a-city-of-growth\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">experience in Madrid<\/a>. Transitioning to online learning during the lockdowns and then back to the classroom afterward was a big challenge, but it also strengthened my adaptability.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-how-has-your-international-experience-influenced-your-personal-and-professional-growth\">How has your international experience influenced your personal and professional growth?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;I had never lived overseas before going to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ie.edu\/uncover-ie\/cultural-capital-academy-awards-imba\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">IE Business School<\/a>, though I had traveled a bit. Madrid sparked a new dimension for me\u2014it made me realize that moving abroad could open up incredible opportunities. Since then, I\u2019ve lived in Boston, returned to London, and now reside in Copenhagen.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-28f84493 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-vertically-aligned-center is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-the-experiences-i-gained-in-madrid-helped-me-navigate-the-workplace-and-the-other-cultures-and-people-really-positively-part-of-it-is-because-i-interacted-with-so-many-other-cultures-at-ie-business-school-over-50-different-nationalities-i-think-so-i-got-to-know-many-different-perspectives\">&#8220;The experiences I gained in Madrid helped me navigate the workplace and the other cultures and people really positively. Part of it is because I interacted with so many other cultures at IE Business School; over 50 different nationalities, I think. So I got to know many different perspectives.&#8221;<\/h3>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"684\" data-id=\"38089\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ie.edu\/uncover-ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/mbas-europe-1024x684.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-38089\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ie.edu\/uncover-ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/mbas-europe-1024x684.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.ie.edu\/uncover-ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/mbas-europe-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.ie.edu\/uncover-ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/mbas-europe-150x100.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.ie.edu\/uncover-ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/mbas-europe-768x513.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.ie.edu\/uncover-ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/mbas-europe-1170x781.jpg 1170w, https:\/\/www.ie.edu\/uncover-ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/mbas-europe-585x390.jpg 585w, https:\/\/www.ie.edu\/uncover-ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/mbas-europe-263x175.jpg 263w, https:\/\/www.ie.edu\/uncover-ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/mbas-europe.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;That has helped me build relationships within my professional career and adapt to my role working with different nationalities as well. Understanding cultural nuances, from humor to work styles, has helped me succeed in an international workplace where I interact with people from all over the world.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-do-you-think-your-experiences-have-helped-you-cultivate-a-global-mindset\">Do you think your experiences have helped you cultivate a global mindset?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;Absolutely. Living and working in multiple countries has taught me the value of diversity, both professionally and personally. At <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ie.edu\/uncover-ie\/why-get-an-mba-15-reasons-why-masters-degrees-work\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">IE Business School<\/a> I learned to embrace new perspectives, which has made me more open to stepping outside my comfort zone. Whether it&#8217;s taking a leap of faith to move to a new place without knowing anyone, or trying out new experiences, or putting myself out there to meet new people, I have gained a lot of confidence and freedom. It helped me develop that global mindset of not feeling that I&#8217;m limited or boxed into one place.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-what-skills-did-you-gain-here-that-you-use-in-your-professional-and-personal-life\">What skills did you gain here that you use in your professional and personal life?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;One skill came from the social aspect of Spanish culture. Living in Madrid fosters a very social way of living, and that has definitely helped me put myself out there more. When I later moved to different cities, I felt more confident to take risks, meet new people and build a network.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-28f84493 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-vertically-aligned-center is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-i-also-think-my-experience-at-ie-business-school-helped-me-become-more-relatable-to-people-because-of-the-diversity-of-nationalities-i-met-it-has-been-very-helpful-in-work-situations-and-personal-situations\">&#8220;I also think my experience at IE Business School helped me become more relatable to people because of the diversity of nationalities I met. It has been very helpful in work situations and personal situations.&#8221;<\/h3>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-2 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"682\" data-id=\"38086\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ie.edu\/uncover-ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/mba-europe-1024x682.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-38086\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ie.edu\/uncover-ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/mba-europe-1024x682.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.ie.edu\/uncover-ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/mba-europe-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.ie.edu\/uncover-ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/mba-europe-150x100.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.ie.edu\/uncover-ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/mba-europe-768x511.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.ie.edu\/uncover-ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/mba-europe-1170x779.jpg 1170w, https:\/\/www.ie.edu\/uncover-ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/mba-europe-585x390.jpg 585w, https:\/\/www.ie.edu\/uncover-ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/mba-europe-263x175.jpg 263w, https:\/\/www.ie.edu\/uncover-ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/mba-europe.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;For example, I worked at an engineering company that involved people from a lot of different nationalities. There\u2019s a stereotype that engineers are not very sociable or easy-going\u2014of course, this is not true for all engineers, but it\u2019s the stereotype. So I decided to start a football team within the company, and it was really rewarding to see how many people not only participated, but also socialized with other people from different areas. I don\u2019t know that I would have had the confidence to do something like that before my experience at IE Business School.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-how-did-your-time-at-ie-business-school-help-you-define-your-purpose\">How did your time at IE Business School help you define your purpose?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;I would say that it helped me discover a lot about myself personally. I made a lot of mistakes during my time there, which allowed me to learn and grow as a person. At first, it was a challenge being in a new city with new people. But as I reflect back, I see that the times when I\u2019ve been the most uncomfortable are when I&#8217;ve grown the most as a person. That\u2019s something you don&#8217;t necessarily see in the moment, but you always realize after the fact.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;My experience at IE Business School taught me that every risk I take, whether it&#8217;s professionally or personally, helps build me in a really positive way. Of course, there\u2019s a part of me that doesn\u2019t want to take risks or face difficult moments, but at the same time, I know that these things help me develop professionally and personally. So I appreciate anything that comes along this journey now, because challenges can end up being your best moments in the long run.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-study-with-us-at-ie-business-school\">Study with us at IE Business School<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Considering he wasn\u2019t even contemplating studying or working abroad until he discovered IE Business School, Amar\u2019s journey has been remarkable.
