Todos mis amigos que han hecho un MBA me han contado sobre la diversidad de los estudiantes que se inscriben en estos programas. El estar rodeado de personas que han hecho una maestría me hizo creer que no me sorprendería tras leer los perfiles de mis futuros compañeros.
A pesar de estar “preparado” no he podido evitar ser sorprendido.
Leer los perfiles de mis futuros compañeros me hace ver que voy a aprender muchísimo de sus historias. La diversidad se observa en los testimonios que cada alumno ha escrito. Veo diversidad geográfica, de pasatiempos, de experiencia y de educación. A continuación les pongo algunos ejemplos…
Diversidad geográfica
- “I am a French of Korean origins currently living in Vietnam.”
- “born in Israel but grew up in Montreal, where I have recently relocated after leaving Los Angeles”
- “I am Peruvian, currently working in Chile”.
- “I am a Korean-American, but I grew up in Paraguay as a child.”
- “I’m American, but grew up in Indonesia”
Diversidad de pasatiempos:

- “I love photography”

Ver estos perfiles me hizo recordar el pensamiento de Emerson con el cual terminé el discurso de graduación de mi carrera. No recuerdo el pensamiento textualmente (de hecho casi lo olvidé al momento de recitar el discurso) pero en pocas palabras el pensamiento decía que un padre mandaba a su hijo a la escuela pensando que el maestro lo iba a educar. No obstante, lo que los padres frecuentemente ignoran es que no es el maestro sino los compañeros quienes van a educar a su hijo.
