"Do you know those people who join an MBA without really knowing what they want to do afterwards? That was me.
I initially thought Tech would be my final destination. But as I went through the MBA journey and kept an open mind, I found an exciting path in Healthcare. The CDC was fundamental in this outcome: the team guided me through career conversations, interview practices, talks about the industry, emotional support... They had my back until the end. Their assistance enabled me to achieve a triple jump in my career, and I’m very grateful for their help!"

IESE is aware of the unique value that women offer and the barriers obstructing their path to leadership positions.
We work to break the glass and concrete ceilings, incorporating a talent that has not been taken into account, because we know that when women win
that’s the start of a win-win situation .
In diverse, inclusive cultures, where everyone is able to thrive, companies win and when everyone wins, society wins.
