in their words

Ben Klasky, MBA ‘98, co-founder of Stanford Board Fellows

"The Board Fellows program breaks through the barrier that says you have to have a lot of money or a lot of connections or a lot of business experience to serve on a board."

in their words

Eric Bengtsson, MBA '08

"My service experience became a big part of the path of figuring out what I want to do, what's next for me, where I can contribute best, what's exciting, and where I fit.”

Tim Millikin, MBA '11

“The Cambodia/ Thailand study trip presented real, on-the-ground evidence of social enterprises using business to effect meaningful improvement in the social and economic lives of the world's poor. Business is at the heart of economic development, and the trip showed me how the management skills I'm learning at the GSB can be used for social good.”
