Bordeaux Business School and its MBA Programme offered a real hands-on approach and intense input into analysis and handling of real-life business situations.

Before Bordeaux Business School, I obtained my degree from Bacconi University and then worked in the ford industry as a wholesale purchaser. I also spent a year in London in the catering business as an administrator for McDonalds. While working in the UK, I decided to look for more formal business training to be able to move out of the food industry. I wanted a general business overview and career enhancement opportunities.

After looking around and balancing my options, I chose Bordeaux Business School. There is a strong relationship between the school and experts in the business world. They offer their input through case studies, workshops and company projects.

The programmes included European company visits outside France. These visits provided useful information relating to software solutions and the necessary balanced between overview and in-dept analysis. I am applying what I learned in my current job, where I have to focus on the logistics issues and manage one of the divisions of Hewlett Packard.
