I thought that this was a unique mission compared to those of most other business schools-how the school puts the improvement of the whole of society at the forefront. “For me, the biggest draw of Yale SOM was its mission: to educate leaders for business and society,” she explains. That includes Caitlin Piccirillo-Stosser, a University of Chicago alum who last served as a senior financial analyst at Home DepotPro. More than that, MBAs can tap into alumni network of difference-makers - 10,000 SOM and 130,000 school-wide - who share their passion for change. Think of Yale SOM as the intersection of a liberal arts sensibility and a practical business foundation. The program has adopted a non-traditional approach - cross-curricular, globally-minded, purpose-oriented - all backed by the resources of one of the world’s most respected educational institutions. That’s the difference at the Yale School of Management. MBAs candidates may explore brands, but they ultimately choose communities. Looking back, they can always say, ‘ I did something…and what I did mattered.’ Whether they seek access or accountability, the mission-driven are committed to a life on the frontlines. It can be a call to action to sacrifice and serve, an urge to turn scarcity into surplus or a monopoly into a community. Many times, that decision is intertwined with a purpose. Choosing a business school is a deeply personal decision.
