Business school and MBAs: what to expect, and how to get in, with Mark de Rond

Mark de Rond is a Professor at the Judge Business School in Cambridge. He’s perhaps best known for his unique and fascinating approach to research on teamwork and high performance, which has seen him living alongside elite rowers, walking with peace activists, and even living among trauma doctors working in a war zone (Afghanistan).


He joins us today to share his insights on:

  • Studying business at undergraduate level
  • Studying for an MBA
  • What business schools look for in their applicants
  • What to expect and how to succeed in your business school experience.
