Do Growth
because a constantly changing world needs adaptable leaders.
FOR THOSE MADE TO DO
We asked two students to chart key points on their Hult journey, from start to finish. What you see is their personal growth story.
Great Leaders Are Grown
How do you define personal growth? There are as many answers to that question as there are people to answer it. When we ask our students to describe their Hult experience, we hear the same thing again and again: “life changing.” But when we ask how, every answer is different. We aim to help students be the best version of themselves and become the resilient, self-aware, ethical leaders the future needs. So that they can continue to improve not only their own lives but the business community and society as a whole.

“Learning is in part a process of self-discovery: understanding how best to approach the world, given one’s skills, to obtain a desired outcome in the most efficient way possible. Experience is the great teacher of leadership skills. Education can enhance and accelerate its effects.”

“The leadership classes changed me the most—being pushed outside my comfort zone. Data people like me can tend to hide behind a screen. I also want to be an inspiration for younger people—to drive people to be the best version of themselves.”

“We don’t do research at Hult that is purely theoretical. Our mission at Hult is to be the most relevant business school in the world, so we’re not producing articles or books to accumulate dust in a library. We are reaching students and managers in a way that not only provides a solution to their business problems, but also helps them implement the solution themselves.”

“When I enter a research project, I start with the end in mind—what is the relevance of this to business practice? Our research identity is based on rigor, relevance, and no boundaries—such is the nature of business in the 21st century. At traditional schools, faculty may disappear for months on a research project. That doesn’t happen with us. There’s a constant loop of teaching and research.”
