๐กAlumni Insights to Navigate Careers in Big Tech
A candid sharing session with Ron Kwok and Jemila Cheung (Product Owner at a Global InsurTech unicorn) explored how the HKU MBA empowers career pivots and cultivates leadership excellence:
๐The Value of MBA: Beyond technical expertise, the MBA provides the "commercial edge" needed to lead cross-functional teams and translate innovation into market success.
๐The Irreplaceable Leadership Edge: While AI enhances productivity, genuine connections, authentic leadership, and professional trust remain the most powerful competitive advantages.
๐The Prestigious Network: The MBA offers more than a curriculum, it delivers global and local exposure built on a foundation of trust, vital for aspiring leaders.
We extend our sincere appreciation to Ron Kwok, Jemila Cheung, Mercy Liu and all participants for making this event a resounding success.
