You will be given access to real business problems in the context of a developing economy. Without tapping into MWB’s network, this work is very difficult to find. You will discover a whole set of skills you never knew you had and will have the opportunity to learn new cultures, speak new languages and really grow as a person.

– Nicole Barnao (MBA, Australian School of Management) in Ecuador with TerraFertil

This experience will give you a chance to get an insider’s view of the developing world, develop goodwill between your country and your host country, between you and the people that work with you, and give you a chance to use your business and personal skills. You will surely make a positive impact when you roll up your sleeves and get down to work.

MWB programs are some of the most interesting and well-run short-term development projects in the world. If someone is able to be involved, they should consider themselves fortunate and do all that they can to help the organization they are working for and also to give back to MWB

I thoroughly enjoyed my experience with FBL and MWB. Whilst I learned a great deal working with FBL and its clients I was also enormously fulfilled by the impact of my work and the reception it received. I would highly recommend the experience to any MBA to see how the other half lives and works. This experience has positively contributed to both my professional and personal life.

–Caroline Pulver (MBA, SDA Bocconi) in Kenya with FBL

MWB placements are a great opportunity to immerse your professional talents in a new environment. Being able to adapt to a new environment and to be challenged by cultural obstacles is an invaluable life lesson, from which experience can be leveraged in many contexts of international business and new professional challenges.

MWB programs offer a good opportunity to hone specific skills or to gain language skills. It is also a great way to see a completely different part of the world and learn about local culture in an area where an MBA might be interested in doing business.

– Amy Donahue (MBA, London School of Business) in Mali with MaliChi
