As a veteran civil servant of more than 20 years, why did you enrol in the CEIBS EMBA programme in 2001?

Among CEIBS alumni, government officials make up less than 3 percent. Fan: Prior to 2001, when China was transitioning from a centrally-planned to a market economy and many enterprises were forced to transform, I was working in industrial economic administration in Wuxi. There were so many problems that I really needed a deeper understanding of enterprises.

When enterprises prosper, the cities and the country prospers. That was my impetus to study at CEIBS. At CEIBS, I learned a new mode of thinking.

CEIBS EMBA educators are among the best; they teach their students with successful cases studies of administration in international corporations. I gained valuable advice on capital management and asset restructuring which I can share with needy enterprises in my city. Businesspeople feel closer to me because of this knowledge.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
