Meet David Castro-Gavino, from the Class of 2020. Coming from a background in data and analytics, David was eager to expand his network and develop his business acumen. Hult\u2019s Executive MBA was the perfect program for David to upskill due to its flexibility, choice of global campuses, and practical application of cutting-edge business principles.<\/em><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Before I came to Hult, I had studied at several traditional universities that were heavy in theory and lacked real-life exposure. Through my research I found Hult, which was the opposite of traditional; although it\u2019s a new-kid-on-the-block school, it had the relevant, practical, applicable approach I was looking for. Another big draw for me was Hult\u2019s global footprint, and the flexibility to rotate to different campuses. It\u2019s a great way to be exposed to diverse cultures and ways of working, something that\u2019s crucial in today\u2019s connected world.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Holding a global position, flying around the world regularly, and looking after a young family of two kids have been challenging (to say the least). The flexibility of the program has given me a good work\/study\/home balance. Supporting me every step of the way has been my amazing wife (Louisa), and my superstar kids (Thomas & Charlotte).<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The caliber of professors at Hult is outstanding\u2014not only because of their academic accreditations but their real-life experience. At the forefront of his industry, Professor Mark Esposito was a huge inspiration, with a brilliant mind and pioneering business acumen. I also remember Professor Aleksander Greszczak, an expert in weaving humor into his delivery of Accounting & Finance, while Professor Ajay Bhalla had this ability to touch your soul. The weekend spent learning about operations from Professor Alistair Brandon-Jones was highly relevant for the company I worked in at the time, so I used my new-found knowledge to improve efficiency and operations, which led to a significant commercial advantage.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The Hult Business Challenge was the best team project I did and was centered around tackling food wastage\u2014a global issue that I\u2019m passionate to solve. The whole project proved to be a transformative experience for several reasons. Not only did I gain a better understanding of all the business components that need to be considered, from research to marketing to tech development, I developed a belt of tools that I\u2019ll carry forward into future roles. My efforts and ideas in the challenge paid dividends as I\u2019ve landed a new job that aligns with my career ambitions.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The Hult network has the power to influence your future career path. I\u2019ve come across many people that studied Hult\u2019s Executive Education or EMBA program, and it\u2019s a great conversation starter that has helped connect me with different businesses. My cohort was made up of incredibly diverse, talented, and experienced people that have become family. We all have different strengths\u2013 as inspiring speakers, industry experts, entrepreneurs, barrier breakers. But together, we\u2019re the strongest.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Since coming to Hult, I\u2019ve adopted a new habit of writing my weekly achievements in a notebook, reflecting on the positives, and considering what I could do better next time. Why do this? Because it sharpens my growth mindset. The younger generation will face different challenges to the ones I faced, so I\u2019m trying to help my kids have a growth mindset, so they can overcome anything.<\/p>\n
