"The program presents the opportunity to bring together my existing skills and, in exploring the challenges I face, identify areas where I can enhance them. I am aiming to gain a fresh perspective on how I can approach my role and new responsibilities, and how I can use my strengths to drive lasting change. By learning from experienced leaders at Harvard Business School, a distinguished institution, I can apply their insights to enhance my leadership skills whilst also building new connections."
