Graham RichmondHOST
What are some of the qualities that you think distinguishes a student who really makes the most of the opportunities available during the MBA? So not what are the qualities that get someone into HBS, but what are the qualities that allows that person to really get the most out of the experience there?

Rupal GadhiaGUEST
If I had to pick two things, I think it would be this hunger, this hunger just to learn, right? This hunger and desire to learn and curiosity.

Rupal GadhiaGUEST
You have your opinion on what, and the case is really about what should this protagonist or what should this leader of a company or an organization or a country do based on this limited information that you have.

Graham RichmondHOST
