About Us
Every year, MBA students at the Tuck School of Business at Dartmouth travel the world as part of the Bakala TuckGO program.
This year, that meant visiting Chile, China, France, Iceland, Japan, Kenya, South Africa, Taiwan, the Philippines, and Vietnam, Business Insider reports.
"Many of our students have already traveled to Western Europe, so this year it was exciting to see them travel to and experience countries in Africa and Africa as well," Lisa Miller, executive director of the program, says in a press release.
"Most if not all our students will do international work," she adds.
"In doing so, students will almost certainly encounter unfamiliar ways of building business relationships, communicating information, motivating staff, negotiating deals, to name just a few," Miller says.
"If they are self-aware, open-minded, and adaptable, they can thrive in such environments, and help others to thrive."
