3. Every one of you has the advantage
and opportunity of the much more
liberal, modern India with many
more professional female role
models. I think the future is especially
bright for women. Don’t let anything

5. A few words about why I am so impressed
with the management education
curriculum at Great Lakes. First of all, the
mandatory Chinese education
component is wonderful. China is always
going to be a large and important market
where an understanding of the language
will facilitate your ability to do business
there.

Chinese language

6. I used to manage one of the
biggest IT projects in our
company and I can tell you that
most people in management do
not know how to run business in
IT. I commend you for making it a
focus area at Great Lakes.

7. You will enter business in a time of
rapid change, and the success of
corporations will hinge on
attracting the kind of young
talent that will question the status
quo, look at problems in new
ways, and come up with creative
solutions.

8. We need you to grow in this
hyper competitive market
place. The global business
community is counting on you. I
think many more management
schools like Great Lakes are
really needed to educate and
prepare young people to be
global managers, not just
deputy managers.
