"Gao Enhua"
2022 Fudan University-BI (Norway) International Cooperation MBA Program graduate
Step out of the comfort zone, "Mao Enhua" Suddenly opened "
" maybe you went there The accumulation of professional knowledge is not enough to meet many management needs. Change cannot only rely on others, but needs to work hard on one's own. "
" has encountered a ceiling. It seems that he does not have many choices. The longer he stays in a familiar workplace, the more possibilities he feels. Very little.” When he was confused, Gao Enhua took the initiative to seek change. In 2020, 20 years after graduating from university, she chose to return to school and enroll in the Fudan University-BI (Norway) International Cooperation MBA Program, hoping to gain strength in her studies.
The company where Gao Enhua currently works is headquartered in , Switzerland, and he has been working there for nearly 17 years. Since 2016, the company has begun to implement a new development strategy and achieve global expansion in various business areas through rapid mergers and acquisitions. As the company's regional IT manager for North Asia and Eastern Europe, the business integration brought about by a series of mergers and acquisitions has also brought unprecedented challenges to her work. "Maybe your past professional knowledge accumulation is not enough to meet many management needs. Changes You can’t just rely on others, you need to work hard yourself.”
The two-year study task is not easy at all. I spend almost all holidays and most weekends in class, or discuss group assignments with classmates, and attend various lectures. "We have a total of 15 courses, which are basically held four days a month. Generally, after finishing a course, you need to prepare for the next course two to three weeks in advance and complete the homework of the previous course. , coupled with the thesis and 2 Global Alliance for Advanced Management (GNAM) courses interspersed throughout the MBA study process, for more than 20 months, there was no time to stop and take a good rest. "But that was also the time. During this period of time spent with her classmates and teachers, she often had moments of enlightenment.
In class, Gao Enhua found the answers to many questions. For example, regarding company mergers and acquisitions, the teacher who teaches international business told her that mergers and acquisitions and business mergers and integration are two different things. The scale of business integration is actually based on the specific equity acquisition agreement. The decision-making boundaries must be clearly defined first to be beneficial. Follow-up work begins. "There are many subtleties in the post-merger integration process, which are difficult for inexperienced people to grasp, but teacher can objectively give me a lot of suggestions from a third-party perspective, and you can also use them in actual operations. You will no longer be confused.”
Through the study of financial courses, Gao Enhua also has a keener insight and understanding of the overall business operation. "Because I have never taken specific financial courses before, I don't understand the meaning behind financial data, so I am not sensitive to data." After studying three finance-related courses, she can now more easily capture the information behind the numbers. “For example, some meetings discuss data, which may have been easily ignored in the past. Now we can make some judgments about the company’s business development trends based on these data, which will also help us to be more targeted in our subsequent work."
learning and communication, "the world has become bigger"
"I used to think that women would encounter bottlenecks in the workplace after a certain age. In Fudan Management School, you can meet many people of the same age, and you will find that it is not what you imagined. "
In communicating with classmates from all walks of life and different positions, Gao Enhua increasingly found that his world had become bigger. "After working in the same company for a long time, I never had time to look up and look at other industries outside. The world is actually very big and exciting. Take the IT industry as an example. After communicating with students from different industries, you will find that IT actually has a wide range of applications. "
" I used to think that women would encounter bottlenecks in the workplace after a certain age. In Fudan Management School, you can meet many people of the same age, and you will find that it is not what you imagined. "Gao Enhua said that classmates will become each other's "advisors", and she will also look at herself from a more positive perspective. She said that if she was waiting to be chosen before, now she has more choices , and therefore become more confident in her life. Next, she wants to explore her life in the next 5-10 years, "Everything is possible. "
The two-year course is over, but for Gao Enhua, the School of Management has brought her not only the two-year course, but also provided her with a platform for lifelong learning. "The School of Management has provided many opportunities for students. Resources, including a variety of alumni activities, lectures and forums, participation in which can allow you to continuously improve. "In her opinion, no matter what age you come to the management hospital, if you stop and give yourself a chance to accumulate strength, you can gain the ability to start over. "As long as you arm yourself with knowledge, no matter what unexpected challenges you encounter, You won't be helpless despite the changes. "
Go forward with the courage of Fudan

"Ji Jiahuan"
2022 Fudan-Hong Kong University IMBA program graduates
"Care about what others care about"
"A person's growth is not only I have learned a lot not only from reading, but also from communicating with everyone. These two years have made me deeply feel that as long as you are willing to invest, you can gain a lot every minute.” What Ji Jiahuan has always wanted to do. The two years in the Fudan-HKU IMBA program were not only academic gains for Ji Jiahuan, but also the cultivation of personal abilities. During this period, he participated in more than 100 student activities, large and small, and participated in organizing as many as 50 activities. "My personal organizational and coordination skills and activity planning abilities have been well exercised."
For event planning , Ji Jiahuan has an underlying principle, which is to "care about what others care about", listen to other people's ideas, and meet their potential needs.
"Some students value academic experience, so we will organize an 'afternoon tea' as a second classroom extension, and organize everyone to share what they have learned in the classroom in conjunction with their own industry conditions, and integrate the classroom knowledge. If you feel that the teacher has invited The lecture by the guest in the class was very good, but the course time may not be available, so we asked him to continue to make up lessons for us during the "Class A Afternoon Tea" activity. "
" Some students like to socialize, so we organized "A Vision". "Corporate visits, during which we visited Nike Greater China Headquarters, ByteDance Shanghai Operation Center, Continental Jiading Factory, BYD Shenzhen Headquarters, Zhongtong Express Shanghai Headquarters and many other companies, giving everyone the opportunity to meet with the senior leaders of the companies. Exchange and dialogue. "
"Some students are already married and have children, so we use the Amazing Kids platform to build some activities suitable for parent-child group participation, so that everyone can enjoy life while learning. "
Ji Jiahuan feels that she has "love". Two words are not enough to describe the two years spent in MBA. "A person's growth is not only gained from reading, but also gained from communicating with everyone. The past two years have made me deeply feel that as long as you are willing to invest, you can gain a lot every minute. This It is a win-win process. I have also experienced growth, expanded my horizons, improved my structure, and discovered my own transformation.”
In Ji Jiahuan’s view, For students at the MBA stage, life is going through a transformation. In the upward process, to achieve an upward breakthrough, , in the words popular on the Internet today, "opening up the pattern" is very important. "If you learn about industries that are not related to you, it may seem useless for your current job, but it may have an impact in the future. In addition, many cross-industry experiences can be learned from each other. No experience in life is in vain, and the current experience always It will be proven over a longer period of time.”
“There are many opportunities for exploration”
“What you learn in the two years actually depends on yourself. In addition to textbook knowledge, you can also have many opportunities for exploration.”
In addition to the experience outside the classroom, the knowledge learned in the classroom also gave Ji Jiahuan a deeper understanding of his work. "In the past, my understanding of sales may have been to find customers and sell things, but as a sales director, it is actually more about sales management, and I learned this knowledge in the class of Fudan School of Management."
Because Affected by the epidemic, the global supply chain has been greatly challenged, causing sales to be hit hard. The business that Ji Jiahuan is responsible for is no exception. The sales decline in China in the first half of this year has become a fact.In this case, as a sales director, how to improve the overall business by coordinating the resources in hand is a real dilemma facing us.
"Many of the 'black swan' events we talked about in class in the past may have been just a model for us at that time, but now black swan events are happening in front of you. How to face this situation, whether it is a supply chain course, It is still a financial management course. Many of the contents we have learned in class will help me open up my mind. If we make some adjustments and integration of the models in the classroom in reality, we may be able to find countermeasures, such as improving efficiency during the epidemic. Sales figures are not feasible, then maybe I need to enhance cash flow to prepare for the recovery after the epidemic. "
Even after graduating from the MBA, Ji Jiahuan will continue to participate in various open classes at Fudan School of Management," Fudan originally said. It is a very good platform, with first-class professors, and many classmates and alumni from the business elite. In fact, it has given many MBA students the resources they originally wanted. Your learning gains in the two years actually depend on you. In addition to textbook knowledge, you can also have many opportunities to explore. "This year Ji Jiahuan also signed up for the GNAM EMBA WEEK course and will have the opportunity to study with students from business schools around the world at UC Berkeley.
Although it has only been two years, Ji Jiahuan has already felt his changes from the outside world, whether it is communication with customers or feedback from people around him, "Perhaps inadvertently, I told the outside world The concepts and ideas I convey are no longer the same as who I was two years ago. There is experience in the workplace, but the most important thing is the learning from the MBA. "
2022, happy graduation
