21. www.ipade.mx Some Student Comments This was a great way to meet people from other countries and cultures. I am sure the relationships developed for many people will last a long time…discussing the cases was beneficial and helped me to understand the thinking of the other individuals in my group. The cultural exchange was the highlight of the trip. It was excellent working in groups and getting to know the students from Mexico, Columbia, Argentina, Peru and Ecuador. The cultural interaction was great. This does enrich the EMBA experience greatly. This residency was extremely valuable from the perspective of being able to learn to work with people from other countries, who have different ideologies, and also from the perspective of being able to discuss our various EMBA programs, their challenges, etc…
