🎙️ The Best Advice I Got Before B-School: Befriend International Students

Before starting business school, someone told me:

“If you want to grow as a leader—really grow—surround yourself with people who see the world differently.”

In this episode, I share why that advice led me to intentionally connect with international students—and how it changed everything.

We talk about:

• The real value international students bring to U.S. campuses
• How diverse perspectives elevate leadership, strategy, and innovation
• The economic benefits international students bring to American institutions
• And why, in a time of tighter H1-B visa regulations, these conversations matter more than ever

This one’s for anyone thinking about business school, leadership development, or the future of global talent in the U.S.
