Life Impact

David Hunt

Project Manager - BT Financial Group

Studying the MBA at Adelaide has been an invaluable experience, enabling me to grow both personally and professionally. The Business School attracts students from a wide range of nationalities, cultural backgrounds, and industries - all of which adds to the richness of the learning experience, as everyone brings a unique and interesting perspective on business issues to the classroom and to group assignments. Perhaps the single most valuable aspect of this diversity is the opportunity to create a network of business contacts - and friends - across the globe.

The wide ranging and flexible curriculum has provided me with skills and knowledge across all of the major business competencies - something which has enabled me to deal confidently and empathetically with a wide range of business stakeholders both within my own firm and others that I interact with in the course of my role as a project manager.

I believe that studying the MBA was instrumental in securing my current position and stands me in good stead to pursue my career aspirations. It has not only provided me with the technical skills to act as a change agent within my organisation, but also the contextual and strategic thinking skills to understand and challenge the drivers of those changes, making me a much more valuable asset to employers.
