Our alumni share their experiences

Adrian Garcia, MBA 2011

I graduated from my MBA at WHU over 10 years ago. But the learnings, experiences, and friendships will continue to accompany me throughout my life.

Sayalee Shende, MBA 2018

I endorse the WHU network whenever I can (...) The power of the people you meet during the MBA is limitless and you should harness it in every way possible.

Chris Hana, MBA 2014

What changed me was the focus on personal development. The coaching I received was truly transformational - I discovered more about my core values and what I really wanted to do.

Maxi Heidenblut, FT MBA 2013

I wanted to immerse myself in the experience and explore other career paths. We traveled to China, India, to the US, and these cultural experiences were valuable as they changed my whole perspective.

Claudius Senst, PT MBA 2013

It was a perfect fit in terms of the curriculum but also the structure…WHU has an outstanding reputation, and having a strong brand like WHU associated with your CV certainly is an additional benefit.

Sara Pepic, FT MBA 2019

Choosing to study full-time was a challenging decision, even though I knew I would have better career options afterward. However, I knew it would be worth it: investing in your skills and knowledge always pays back.
