Alumni Career Talk – Webinar
with Micheal McKay, Luminita-Xenia Mesaros, and Eunmi Christina Kim

How can an MBA shape your career, values, and life direction?
Join us for a conversation with GLOBIS alumni as they share how their MBA helped them navigate career shifts, define their kokorozashi (personal mission), and make decisions with purpose.
This 1-hour online panel will feature three alumni from the GLOBIS Part-time Online and Full-time MBA programs, offering perspectives from different industries, countries and career paths. They will reflect on their professional journeys, the lessons taken from their MBA, and how they continue to apply these insights today.
After the panel discussion, you’ll have the opportunity to ask questions directly to the speakers in a live Q&A.
