That is why they usually find that their M.B.A. offers great flexibility and extraordinary long-term value. The track record of those affiliated with the school suggests that the GSB approach enables people to not only cope with the future but also to shape it. Their professional successes put them in positions to change the world. For instance, alumni are heading some of the largest, most far-reaching institutions, which are in a position to influence the global economy. GSB researchers frequently have a hand in reform, advising on everything from banking regulation to education policy and Social Security reform to the privatization of socialist economies.
Uncertainty brings risk, but also opportunity.
I look forward to seeing men and women trained at the GSB grasp that opportunity and succeed in the next millennium, whatever it may bring.
