ALEXANDRE CASTEAU, FRENCH, EDHEC-2015

BUSINESS MANAGEMENT
PROJECT MANAGER AT ENDEAVOR, SECONDMENT WITH MCKINSEY & COMPANY (COLOMBIA)

As part of my Grande École programme, I took a Master of Science in Management Studies at the MIT Sloan School of Management and will soon join McKinsey as a consultant in their Geneva office. 

At MIT, I learned not to be afraid of challenging the status quo, to think big and out of the box, to promote work in diverse teams and to constantly develop my self-awareness. One of EDHEC’s main contributions to my professional development has been to increase my willingness to step out of my comfort zone. This experience forced me to adapt quickly and helped me to become comfortable with new challenges; invaluable life skills which have helped me to achieve much more ever since. EDHEC has taught me to keep challenging myself and to pursue my dreams.”
