Working full-time, raising a family, and doing a part-time MBA program is not only a big responsibility but also a huge financial obligation. Since I could not secure any financial loan, receiving the GBS Thought Leader Scholarship was of great help in reducing my financial burden. More importantly, it did not only serve as a financial support but also gave me the motivation and boost my confidence to pursue my dream.
