ATLANTA – May 21, 2025 – Emory University’s Goizueta Business School has awarded a full-tuition scholarship to its prestigious Evening MBA program to Penny Nyokabi, a standout alumna of Usher’s New Look (UNL).

The Usher’s New Look MBA Scholarship at Goizueta is awarded to a graduate of UNL’s Moguls in Training (MIT) program, a flagship college and career readiness initiative that provides mentorship, life skills, and leadership development to students navigating higher education. Nyokabi will begin the MBA program in Fall 2025.

“Education has always been at the core of Usher’s New Look,” shares Grammy Award-winning artist and UNL founder Usher Raymond IV. “This scholarship represents the next chapter in helping our students not only dream big but lead big. I’m proud to see our longtime partnership with Goizueta evolve into a transformational opportunity.”

Nyokabi, a first-generation college graduate who has worked in the tax field for PwC, The Home Depot, AT&T and currently QGEnda, holds both a BA in Business Administration and a Master of Taxation from Georgia State University. She now seeks to broaden her business acumen in areas such as global markets, strategy, and operations.

“Penny embodies the mission of Usher’s New Look—to help young people find their spark and create generational impact,” shares Cammie Rice, Chair of the Board for Usher’s New Look. “This scholarship is more than a gift; it’s a celebration of what’s possible when we invest in potential. We are incredibly proud of Penny and grateful to Goizueta Business School for believing in her journey.”

Goizueta’s Evening MBA program is consistently ranked among the best in the nation, known for its rigorous academics, industry connections, and emphasis on practical, real-world learning for working professionals.

“Our program is designed for driven professionals ready to take the next step in their leadership journey,” shares Jaclyn Conner, Associate Dean of Goizueta’s Evening and Executive MBA programs. “Penny’s passion for growth and her deep connection to the values of both UNL and Goizueta make her the perfect choice for this award. We are honored to welcome her into the Goizueta community.”

The MIT program spans the college years and equips students to thrive in school, career, and life. Participants engage in monthly sessions led by UNL alumni and industry leaders, exploring topics from financial literacy to graduate school prep. Graduates earn a Global Leadership Certificate validated by Emory University, with curriculum developed by Goizueta faculty.

Reflecting on the impact of UNL and the Moguls in Training program, Nyokabi shares “As a first-generation college student, the organization’s guidance and resources were instrumental in my success, offering scholarships and mentorship that allowed me to navigate higher education with confidence. More than just financial assistance, UNL fostered an environment where my academic, business, and social skills could develop and thrive.”

When asked about the impact of the scholarship, Nyokabi adds “This opportunity will be a crucial step in bridging the gap between technical expertise and strategic decision-making. I’m eager to apply what I learn to drive meaningful impact in my career and beyond.”

The conference lineup included a mix of speakers, panel discussions, and networking opportunities around how best to drive one’s career journey. “The power to shape that journey lies in our hands, and today is about equipping ourselves with the tools, insights, and connections we need to keep moving forward,” said René Hallock 20EvMBA, president of Executive Women of Goizueta and the director of integrated marketing for international markets at Intuit Mailchimp. “This is an opportunity to grow both personally and professionally and to deepen the relationships that strengthen our collective success.”

Unlocking Potential Through Purposeful Relationships

In her keynote address, “Potential—Have you ever wondered about your potential?” Grace Chadwick 14EMBA, chief operating officer of Crumbl Cookies, talked about growing up in Mexico City and the influence her family, especially her mother, had on her. “As I studied my mother, I discovered that there are three key elements for us to really, really hone in on if we want to maximize our ability for our potential. And those three elements are purpose, power, and vision,” Chadwick told the audience. “Potential is about existing in possibility, which means all of us have the capability to reach our potential. It is available right now to each one of you.”

During her session, “Building your Personal Board of Directors,” Marina Cooley 14MBA, assistant professor in the practice of marketing, asked the audience to be intentional about building a personal board of directors, one that includes mentors, sponsors, sounding boards, and challengers—all very different types of board members. “This is a group of people who can help you in a variety of ways,” Cooley explained. She challenged audience members “to come up with two to three names of people who fit into these chairs that would help you meet the goals that you’ve said you have.”

Breakouts: Managing Upward and Storytelling

The first of two breakout sessions, “Managing Upward: Controlling Your Narrative,” examined how to master the art of managing relationships with supervisors and higher-ups.

The panelists included Regenia Sanders, Atlanta office managing partner at EY, Luci Rainey, Executive Coach, career and business Coach at DAY ONE Consulting and Coaching, and Jenny Mitchell, senior vice president of customer success at Advisr.

The “Storytelling: Communicating and Advocating for Yourself” breakout explored how to craft and share one’s story in a way that authentically communicates value and advocates for one’s career goals. Moderator Tyler Ewing 05BBA, co-founder of Switch Consulting Group, was joined by Lauren McGlory 16MBA, media productions global lead for strategy and accounts at LinkedIn, Liz Stanton 10MBA, vice president of financial planning and analysis at Delta Air Lines, and Jackie Martin 02MBA, executive people & culture leader.

Leveraging AI and New Ways of Working

In the fireside chat: “Leveraging AI,” Rubina Ohanian, managing director at Accenture, spoke with Executive Women of Goizueta board member Hope Cowan 88MBA, principal consultant at Hope Cowan Consulting, about artificial intelligence (AI)—including how daunting it can be for women to enter the male-dominated field. Ohanian, who leads LLM, AI, and AI education efforts for Accenture in North America, explained that not everyone is “a geeky type of person like me,” but then added that it’s urgent to learn AI. “You can learn anything. But you’ve got to take that step forward,” she said.

The final topic of the day, “New Ways of Working: Growing in a Distributed Environment,” was tackled by moderator Ty Heath 12MBA, director and co-founder at The B2B Institute at LinkedIn, and panelists Rachel Nelms, principal and founder of formations consulting (and former director of Goizueta’s Executive MBA program), Nicole Mejias 21EvMBA, client account lead for retail media at Microsoft Accounting, and Jackie Blankenship, director of performance development at Protiviti. The session explored how to excel in the modern work landscape by leveraging technology, fostering strong communication, and building relationships across virtual and in-office platforms.

Cultivating Global Citizens

The program aims to expand Goizueta’s global footprint while providing students with rich, hands-on learning experiences. “Essentially, these programs are meant to open their eyes to opportunities they might not otherwise find globally,” says Megha Madan, senior associate director of Goizueta Global Strategy and Initiatives.

These trips are more than just academic excursions. They aim to cultivate global citizens by exposing students to various business practices, cultures, and opportunities. Through these experiences, students gain insights crucial for their future careers in the increasingly interconnected global market.

Each trip includes a mix of preparatory sessions, business visits, and cultural immersion. The program offers students a comprehensive understanding of the host country’s business landscape and cultural context.

Before departure, students attend sessions that prepare them for the trip, offering background on the destinations’ cultural, economic, and political climate. This preparation ensures that students are ready to engage meaningfully with their international experiences.

Along with business activities, students engage in cultural tours and excursions to better understand and appreciate the local way of life. “They do some cultural immersion, some tourism that allows them to really get a feel of the place that they’re visiting,” says Madan.

Excursions in South Africa include trips like visits to the site of Nelson Mandela’s imprisonment, the Nelson Mandela House & Family Museum, and the Apartheid Museum. In South Korea, participants can experience a baseball game at Jamsil Stadium or an outing to Haedong Yonggungsa Temple, an important cultural center originally built in 1376. Such activities augment the students’ global engagement with the historical context of their destinations while learning about local business.

Fostering Business Relationships Abroad

During the Global Experiential Modules, students also visit companies, often ones that have a relationship with Emory University, including those that sponsor MBA students. These visits provide firsthand insights into international business operations and strategies.

The South Africa trip, for example, includes a longstanding relationship with the Innovation Hub Pretoria, a government-funded innovation center. Here, students witness the full cycle of entrepreneurship, from incubation to product sales in local townships. “We actually go into one of the local townships. That allows students to see and purchase these products that have come out of this innovation,” says Madan.

They really felt like they understood what this relationship means to our institution and the impact it has on the local community as well.

Megha Madan

Such experiences make a lasting impression on students, helping them understand the real-world applications of their academic studies and the significant role of innovation in economic development.

Leveraging Goizueta’s Global Footprint

The locations for Global Experiential Modules are chosen strategically to leverage Emory’s existing global footprint. For instance, the South Korea trip benefits from the university’s active alumni network in the country and sponsored MBA programs. Meanwhile, the Austria and Germany trip is supported by an alumnus who is a third-generation business owner. “We have alumni activity and networking built into the program,” Madan says. This strategic selection ensures that students have robust support networks and opportunities for meaningful engagement during their trips.

It’s All About Enrichment

Feedback from students has been overwhelmingly positive. Many students report that these trips have profoundly influenced their perspectives on global business and career aspirations. Engaging with international entrepreneurs and business leaders, asking insightful questions, and participating in idea generation has been particularly impactful. “This is an academic experience, but for some of them, it’s a life-changing experience,” Madan says.

The success of the GEMs program is measured through student surveys. These are reviewed regularly to continuously improve the program. “It’s great to be able to see that and get that feedback from them directly. It really shows that these programs are impacting these students in a way that we hope,” says Madan. These evaluations reveal that students not only enjoy these trips but also find them academically and personally enriching.

An Experience to Remember

The GEMs program at Goizueta Business School is more than just an academic course. It’s it is a transformative experience that prepares students for leadership in a globalized world. The Global Experiential Modules combine rigorous academic preparation with real-world international experiences. This unique combination equips students with the knowledge, skills, and perspectives necessary to thrive in today’s interconnected business environment. The program’s success shines through in the enthusiastic feedback from students who return with a deeper understanding of global business and a renewed commitment to pursuing international opportunities.

The Roberto C. Goizueta Award for Leadership is the highest honor a student graduating from Goizueta can receive. Funded by The Goizueta Foundation, the school awards this honor to two students who embody a love of learning; inspirational leadership; creative thinking; courage and commitment; transparency and trust; and excellence and integrity. The Goizueta Foundation established this endowed award at the business school in 2019 in honor of Roberto C. Goizueta on the school’s 25^th Naming Anniversary.

Honoring the Award Recipients

“At Goizueta, we are preparing principled leaders to have a positive influence on business and society,” says Gareth James, John H. Harland Dean of Goizueta Business School.

Students like Jonathan and Nick have left an enduring mark on Goizueta. I can’t wait to see the ways in which they will continue to thrive and leave their mark on the world.

Gareth James, John H. Harland Dean of the Goizueta Business School

“We are immensely grateful to The Goizueta Foundation for their commitment to preparing the future’s brightest minds to lead business forward,” says James.

Ross and Brown each receive a $25,000 award. They have also identified a faculty or staff member at Goizueta who had the greatest impact on them during their time as a student. Each faculty and staff selected receives a $5,000 honorarium.

“We are proud to support The Roberto C. Goizueta Award for Leadership,” says Olga Goizueta Rawls, Board Chair and Chief Executive Officer of The Goizueta Foundation. “I congratulate Jonathan and Nick on their many important contributions to the Goizueta Business School community and their peers. Today more than ever, business schools must prepare students to lead in an ever-changing world. Jonathan and Nick have shown they possess the leadership qualities to do exactly that.”

Jonathan Ross Honored for Strong Moral Compass and Putting People First

During his time in business school, Ross has embodied the values of Goizueta. He achieved academic distinction in his coursework and served as a fellow for the Business & Society Institute. He also exhibited superior strategic insights by taking first place at two intercollegiate case competitions. An inspirational leader, Ross is a sought-after mentor, sounding board, and teammate, who shares an authentic concern for others.

While serving as president of the Emory Impact Investing Group, Ross created a new way to educate potential new members about the different aspects of impact investing. This ultimately led to the creation of an ‘early analyst’ experience for students. Ross took it upon himself to create open lines of communication with the administration to help adapt to new policies and procedures implemented for students.

Ross also served as president of the Goizueta Consulting Group. He and fellow club leaders revamped the group’s website and resources to better serve members. He created networking nights, casing workshops, and a mentorship program.

“In every interaction, Jonathan considers the weight of his decisions against what is ethical, what is allowed, and most importantly, what is intended,” staff nominations noted. “What this means is that he asks questions that may result in an answer that he does not like or that creates more work for him. But his moral compass is always pointed in the direction of what is right.”

Strength in the Goizueta Community

Receiving such an award is an honor for Ross, who feels fortunate to have such a supportive and helpful community.

“I am incredibly honored to have been selected for the Robert C. Goizueta Award for Leadership,” Ross says.

During my time as a Goizueta student, I was incredibly lucky to have access to many mentors and resources. The students above and below me helped me to find my passions and community.

Jonathan Ross 24BBA

“Faculty like Professor Roberts have equipped me with skills and guided me toward resources,” Ross continues. “Staff members like Dean [Andrea] Hershatter have made Goizueta the incredible place that it is. They have all contributed deeply to my success and inspired me to give back to the community.”

Honorarium Recipient: Peter Roberts

In recognition for his mentorship, Ross selected Peter Roberts to receive one of this year’s $5,000 honorariums. Roberts serves as a professor of organization and management at Goizueta. He is also the academic director of specialty coffee programs at the Business & Society Institute.

Professor Roberts has taught me the importance of utilizing my studies at the intersection of business and society. He consistently pushed me throughout college and my recruitment to consider how I could remain involved with social impact at school and after graduation.

Jonathan Ross 24BBA

“I would not have the direction I do if it were not for Professor Roberts,” Ross says. “With that said, his impact extends far beyond my experiences. As one of the founders of Goizueta’s Start:ME program and an internationally recognized supporter of the sustainable coffee industry, he has embraced impact and business and used his faculty to help hundreds of students do the same.”

Nick Brown Rises to the Challenge and Helps Students Succeed

There was never a doubt that Nick Brown knew how to take on a challenge. With a military background guiding him, Brown served as president of the Finance Club at Goizueta. There, he implemented improvements to the recruiting process, doubling the amount of investment banking interns from the previous year. By uncovering issues in the recruitment process, Brown created a more balanced evaluation criteria to help students succeed.

“Nick has always stepped up into roles and responsibilities to help his classmates,” fellow student Harman Lindsey 24MBA says. “Coming out of the military, Nick was very much behind a lot of civilian peers to start. That never stopped him from stepping up and being ready to assist and help his classmates.”

As an active member in the Finance and Veterans Clubs, fellow students appreciated his honest advice. “Nick’s character is unwavering,” Goizueta student Patrick Forrestal 24MBA says. “As a Marine, he learned to always stand for that which is right. He carries that ethos with him to this day.”

Sharing the Honor

Receiving this award is a momentous accomplishment for Brown who wishes to share this honor with everyone who helped him along his journey.

Receiving the Roberto C. Goizueta Award for Leadership is an extraordinary honor. It underscores the values and vision that Roberto C. Goizueta exemplified for Emory’s business community.

Nick Brown 24MBA

“This recognition is deeply meaningful,” Brown says. “It connects my journey to the legacy of an individual who profoundly shaped our institution. I share this honor with my supportive family, fellow students, faculty, staff, alumni, and the Marines I have served with. They have all greatly influenced my development. This award is a testament to the high standards of integrity and leadership we uphold at Goizueta Business School.”

Honorarium Recipient: Ken Keen

Brown recognized Lieutenant General USA (Ret.) Ken Keen, associate professor in the practice of organization and management and associate dean for leadership, as the faculty member who most impacted his MBA journey.

Lieutenant General (Ret.) Keen’s dedication to developing principled leaders to have a positive influence on business and society inspires all of us at Goizueta. His steadfast support for veterans and his mentorship have been instrumental in my personal and professional growth.

Nick Brown 24MBA

“His guidance has taught me to effectively apply the skills and experiences from my military service and MBA education in meaningful ways as I embark on this new chapter of my career.”

This year’s festivities took place at the Gas South District, just outside of Atlanta. Gregory L. Fenves, president of Emory University, says the decision was made to relocate to address safety and security concerns in light of the numerous protests sweeping campuses across the country.

The Courage of the Class of 2024

Robert Franklin, the James T. and Berta R. Laney Professor in Moral Leadership at the Candler School of Theology, acknowledged the change of venue for this year’s events when he welcomed undergraduates in the Class of 2024 to the university ceremony on Monday morning.

Franklin reflected on the unique challenges faced by this class, who graduated high school amid the COVID-19 pandemic, and the courage with which they’ve faced it all.

“When the history books are written, those headlines will tell only a part of the story. What they will not capture is the depth of your resilience, your humanity, your thoughtfulness. They will not capture your countless daily efforts to lift others up and, even when it’s painful, to hear the perspectives of others, especially those with whom you disagree,” said Franklin.

Gareth James, John H. Harland Dean of Goizueta Business School echoed Franklin’s sentiments. “Our commencement festivities this year may look a little different. However, our commitment to honoring the immense achievements of this graduating class remains unchanged. I want to recognize our students, faculty, and staff who have continued to persevere.”

Graduate and Undergraduate Programs Celebrate in Diploma Ceremonies

Goizueta Business School’s graduate programs kicked off the celebration of commencement weekend with a diploma ceremony on Friday, May 10. James commended the graduates of the Evening MBA, Executive MBA, One-Year MBA, Two-Year MBA, M.S. in Business Analytics, Master of Analytical Finance, as well as those securing dual degrees for their dedication and resilience.

During his remarks, James focused on the students and their accomplishments. “In our newest graduating class, I see enormously talented and principled leaders. You are ready to solve the biggest challenges of our future,” James said. “I cannot wait to see where you go next, the ways you will continue to thrive, and how you will leave your mark on the world around us.”

Tiffany Willis 15EMBA, vice president and head of investor relations and ESG Engagement, Starbucks, delivered the keynote address during Friday’s diploma ceremony. “Over the next 10 minutes, I hope to pour into you, the same way Emory has poured into me when I was here for my graduate degree,” shared Willis. As graduates embark on their next chapter, Willis encouraged them “embrace the hustle, maintain the momentum, own your narrative, remember your why, and yield to your wildest dreams.”

The undergraduate Bachelor of Business Administration diploma ceremony took place on Monday, May 13. During the ceremony, James shared, “As I look at our graduating BBA class, I am filled with tremendous pride, gratitude, and optimism. You are the toughest group of students we have ever graduated.”

Andrea Hershatter, associate dean of undergraduate education at Goizueta, recognized legatees and kicked off the diploma ceremony. “One of the most gratifying moments at commencement is celebrating the continuation of family legacies. It is a great moment when a parent, grandparent, or sibling passes the Emory torch to another family member. This creates a deep bond between the university and that family.” Hershatter then recognized the full lineup of new graduates as they crossed the stage.

Emory University Commencement Keynote Address Delivered by Valerie Montgomery Rice, MD

Valerie Montgomery Rice MD, president and CEO of Morehouse School of Medicine, served as Emory’s 2024 Commencement speaker. Montgomery Rice is a groundbreaking physician-scientist and university leader. She has worked tirelessly to foster diversity within the medical profession and the scientific workforce. “She wants to hold the door open so that others can follow and find success in their career and lives,” explained Fenves. During Montgomery Rice’s time as president and CEO, the Morehouse School of Medicine has solidified its reputation as a “powerhouse in the advancement of health equity,” he added.

Montgomery Rice has strong ties to Emory, having completed her medical training at the School of Medicine. She began her remarks by reflecting on her experience studying at Emory. She trained at both Emory University Hospital and Grady Memorial Hospital—two facilities with quite different patient populations. However, during her training, she witnessed her professor treat patients at both hospitals with the same expertise and respect. This experience helped set the foundation for her commitment to health equity.

Advice for the “School of Life”

Speaking to students who mostly began their Emory careers in fall 2020, Montgomery Rice noted this was the first educational milestone many were able to celebrate in person. And while their time as Emory students ended that morning, she explained, their time in the “school of life” was just beginning.

Getting here is a great accomplishment. But having traveled this road, I can only imagine that for some of you, it wasn’t easy.

“Maybe you had to work two or three jobs. Perhaps you struggled to get passing grades. Or maybe you had to change directions when you figured out the career path you thought you wanted no longer fit for your future,” she said.

On this “first day in the school of life,” she left students with a homework assignment: to hug the people in their support systems and share how grateful they are. After all, nobody got here alone.

“Many of you will do great things. However, to graduate from the school of life with a cum laude degree, all you have to do is one thing,” Montgomery Rice said. “That is to do the best you can with what you have. And remember to listen, learn, include, and grow.”

“The world may not be ready for you, but I am confident you are ready for the world.”

During the ceremony, Montgomery Rice received an honorary degree. Emory also awarded honorary degrees to violin virtuoso Robert McDuffie and the president of the National Academy of Medicine, Victor J. Dzau MD.

Onward and Upward for the Class of 2024

As faculty, staff, students, parents, and loved ones cheered on the Class of 2024, they celebrated the graduates’ bright futures ahead.

President Fenves encouraged graduates to take a moment and bask in the glow of their achievements. He reminded the Class of 2024 that they were surrounded by those they love the most. “Enjoy this moment of accomplishment. In the years ahead, you will strive to achieve new goals. But right now, take one more look around at your friends and your family. Appreciate this experience. You have reached a milestone in your life. It is you who did this. You made it happen. Savor it, enjoy it, celebrate it.”

Dean James shared his enthusiasm with the graduates as well, now the newest alumni of the school’s dynamic network. “Ultimately, Goizueta will be judged based on the graduates we produce. I’m incredibly proud to lead your school. A major reason for that is all of you sitting out there. You are ready to go out to prove, yet again, what an amazing school we have. You now have the honor and privilege to call yourselves Emory Goizueta alums. Congratulations to the graduates of the Class of 2024!”

When it came time for Henry Fumbah 24EvMBA to change the trajectory of his career, he knew an MBA would prepare him to be a leader in Corporate America.

The native Atlantan, born to Liberian parents, didn’t have to look too far to find the perfect school.

The name Goizueta, it holds rank, as does the network that comes with it. Choosing Emory just made sense.

Henry Fumbah 24EvMBA

Naturally, Fumbah (pronounced Foomba) did his due diligence. He spoke with admissions counselors and alumni. These included several colleagues at Boston Consulting Group (BCG), where he is a senior financial analyst.

“One of my BCG mentors, while he wasn’t a Goizueta alum, mentioned Emory as a top school that I should look into. Those types of conversations were very inspiring. They definitely played a large part in my decision to not only get my MBA, but to come to Goizueta,” he said.

Decision made, Fumbah continued to work in corporate finance at BCG while strategizing how best to optimize the graduate school experience. Ultimately, he chose a similar tactic to the one he used at Georgia Southern University for undergraduate studies.

The Path to an MBA

Growing up Fumbah had a love for numbers. Math was always his favorite subject and, in high school, he was a member of the National Honor Society. Still, when he entered undergrad, he didn’t declare a major and instead chose pre-business as a placeholder until he made a final decision.

It wasn’t until the prerequisite accounting class that all business students had to take that I decided this is where I was going. This is the path.

Henry Fumbah

“I learned those foundational accounting skills. I learned that I was very good at it, and I enjoyed accounting.”

With a degree in accounting and a minor in finance, he went on to get a master’s degree in management information systems from Kennesaw State University. Then, he took a job as a fund accounting associate at Trident Trust. A year later, wanting to tackle more future facing analyses, he joined BCG as a finance specialist in 2018. After rising in the ranks of BCG, he was ready to explore the next stage of his career.

The Balancing Act: Managing School and Career

Fumbah entered Goizueta Business School’s Evening MBA program with an open mind and a willingness to let the path forward reveal itself.

“I knew it was a three-year program and I wasn’t going to expedite it at all,” he says. “So, I said, let me just get in. I’ll get involved, meet people, have fun, and figure out what I am doing here.”

Among the adjustments was learning to manage work and school.

It was definitely a challenge, but a doable challenge.

Henry Fumbah

“And kudos to those students who have families,” says Fumbah. “As someone with no family or kids of my own yet, it was still a challenge for me.”

“Just trying to space things out and plan ahead, plus doing your due diligence was enough. You have to make sure that you are taking care of your schoolwork. However, you also have to take care of your personal and professional life.”

To manage, Fumbah used time blocking, scheduling time for coursework, a flex day, and Friday nights for fun with friends. Also, he shared his school schedule with everyone, including his line managers. “Class days change every semester. So, I would say, ‘Hey, these are days I need to leave 30 minutes to an hour earlier. If anything arises, I will make up the work in the morning or the next day.’”

Fumbah acknowledges that not everyone works for a company that offers such a supportive environment.

From Classroom to Consulting

Once in the groove of the program, Fumbah began to focus on the subject areas that resonated with him. What bubbled to the top was consulting.

A key component in this decision was the IMPACT experiential learning class. It’s a semester long consulting project where students work with real clients on real business problems.

“That class gave me the foundation and basic skillsets I needed in order to be a successful consultant,” he says.

I learned how to frame a problem, how to structure the problem-solving processes, and how to take an analysis and synthesize a good recommendation for our client.

Henry Fumbah

In addition to aiding him in learning the language of consulting, Fumbah says the course helped with his “case-study skills.” Ultimately, it prepared him to showcase this skillset during interviews with consulting firms.

Fumbah used these skills, along with help from Goizueta’s MBA Career Management Center, to secure a new role as an Associate with ScottMadden Management Consultants. His new job and career pivot begins on July 1, in the firm’s Atlanta office.

Enriching Experience

Reflecting on his experience at Goizueta, Fumbah can’t say enough about the life-long friendships he’s built with his classmates or the willingness of alumni to offer advice about consulting. Plus, there are other impactful courses that offer lessons he will use moving forward.

Fumbah’s always been interested in buying a business versus creating something from scratch. So, the course Entrepreneurial Private Equity: Perspectives from Practitioners, proved particularly insightful. The class is taught by David Panton, global private equity investor and adjunct professor at Goizueta, and Klaas Baks, professor in the practice of finance and executive director of the Center for Alternative Investments. Fumbah also participated in the Peachtree Minority Venture Fund. The $1 million student-run venture capital organization focuses on empowering underrepresented founders.

We invest in businesses across the nation to help get them started and on their way. I am proud to say that the company I pitched in spring of 2023 received a $25K investment.

Henry Fumbah

“That was an amazing experience,” he says. “My team and I pitched the vision to the Investment Committee, led by JB Kurish, professor in the practice of finance and a Business & Society Institute faculty advisor. We really worked hard to secure the funds for that company.”

Taking Flight: Pursuing Passions Beyond the Classroom

Going forward, Fumbah is excited to recover some of his free time as his final classes draw to a close. He enjoys the variety of festivals Atlanta offers this time of year, and he’s joined an intermural basketball team to reconnect with playing sports. And yes, he’s even practicing his golf swing.

In addition to spending more time with family and friends, he is keeping in mind a childhood dream: to become a pilot.

“I’ve always loved airplanes since I was a young child. That passion has never gone away. In fact, on my resume, I state that I’m planning to get my private pilot’s license. So, now I have to go do it!”

Congratulations to our Goizueta graduates! Learn more about the celebration.

Melissa Rapp: Associate Dean of MBA Admissions

1) What’s the single most exciting development, change, or event happening at your MBA program this coming year?

One of the many exciting developments currently happening is the announcement of our Social Enterprise Fellows experiential learning projects. This semester, the projects include an investment plan for expanding the impact of Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and Belonging (DEIB) services for a non-profit human capital organization, and an AgroTech market outlook and P&L simulation project for a global consumer brands company. 

2) What 2-3 qualities, skill sets, and experiences does your program value most in applicants?

Goizueta looks for candidates who: 

1. Are growth minded, eager to learn, and collaborate with a diverse cohort in classrooms and in teams.
2. Are seeking an opportunity to grow both professionally and personally through a rigorous classroom experience, deep networking, and experiential learning experiences.
3. Have demonstrated impact and leadership regardless of their level or role and look for opportunities to positively drive change and influence others.

3) How does your team approach the essay portion of the application, specifically? What are you looking for as you read the essays? Are there common mistakes that applicants should try to avoid? Is there one key thing they should keep in mind as they sit down to write them?

We look at essays as a way for candidates to tell their story and add dimension to the more practical parts of the application. We read and consider every essay in the evaluation process. We expect candidates to answer the essay question in a personal way that demonstrates their experiences. Please don’t try to use essays written for other schools, don’t use AI to write your essays, and always have someone else proofread your work. Keep your own story, your motivations, and your goals in mind as you sit down to write your essays.

4) Do you have any application tips for the essay and recommendation portions of the MBA application? 

My first and best application tip is to start your application, give yourself a deadline, and submit it. There is never a perfect time to apply, so if you are thinking about it, now is the time.

For essays, answer the questions being asked. Don’t write what you think we want to hear. Focus on your story and an answer true to you. Proofread well. Read the question before you start writing, think about the question for a couple of days, jot down ideas or map your answer, and then start writing.

For recommendations, follow the guidance from the school on what type of recommender they want you to use. For most MBA programs, choosing someone who knows you in a professional setting is preferred. Ask your recommender a few weeks before a recommendation is due. A good recommendation takes time to write. Provide your recommender with your current resume. Be a good human, write them a thank you note, and let them know what the outcome of your application is.

5) How important is standardized testing for an MBA application to Emory. Is there a preference for GMAT, GRE, EA for your full-time program?

Goizueta requires a standardized test score and accepts the GMAT, GRE, MCAT, and LSAT. Candidates with strong quantitative backgrounds can apply for a test waiver.

6) What resources are available within your MBA program to assist with internships, full-time job opportunities, or career advancement?

All Goizueta MBA students receive comprehensive and personalized career support from Goizueta’s Career Management Center. Part of this career support comes through a required course called “Professional Development,” which all MBA students take during their first semester. This course provides foundational training and practice for the MBA recruiting process. It covers topics such as networking, preparing for employer interactions, conducting company research, and interviewing for MBA-level roles. 

Additionally, each job-seeking Goizueta MBA student is assigned to a dedicated career coach. They will partner with them throughout their time in the MBA program. Students work with their coaches on a one-on-one basis. They will discuss their job search strategy, update their resume, and practice for interviews. Students have access to this coaching for both their internship and full-time job searches.

Finally, in addition to coaching and training, the Career Management Center provides access to MBA-level job opportunities. We have an employer relations team who coordinates school-managed interviews, plans events with a variety of employers, and sources MBA-level job postings for our students.

“Goizueta has so many alumni who make us extremely proud. This year’s honorees definitely stood out, though,” says Lindsay Topping, managing senior director of alumni engagement for Goizueta. “We could not be more thrilled to recognize this year’s award recipients: Sig Mosley, Dipeeka Bastola, and Debbie Perantoni.”

Distinguished Alumnus Award: Sig Mosley 66Ox 68BBA

The Distinguished Alumnus Award began in 1984. It serves as Goizueta’s way of recognizing an individual who has achieved success in their career and has an ongoing commitment to serving their community and the Goizueta community. This year’s recipient was Sig Mosley 66Ox 68BBA.

Mosley was nominated by Robert Kazanjian, Asa Griggs Candler Professor of organization and management and former academic director of The Roberto C. Goizueta Center for Entrepreneurship and Innovation.

“Honoring Sig in this way pays homage to his long history of contributions to Goizueta students with interests in entrepreneurship and investing,” says Kazanjian in his nomination.

Sig has done more than any other alum to support the Center for Entrepreneurship and entrepreneurship programming at Goizueta. He has been central to our efforts over the past decade.

Robert Kazanjian, Asa Griggs Candler Professor of Organization & Management

Mosley, known as the “godfather of angel investing” in the Southeast, is currently the managing partner of Mosley Ventures. He has helped fund nearly 150 startups in the Southeast since 1990 and holds the record in the region for the largest venture deal ($5.7 billion) for the acquisition of Tradex by Ariba.

Mosley even has an awards program named after him: The Siggie Awards. The awards honor early-stage investors helping to grow Atlanta’s entrepreneurial ecosystem and recognize unsung heroes in the Atlanta startup community.

“It is truly an honor to receive the Distinguished Alumnus Award from Goizueta. Being one of many qualified alumni from the school, it is truly a privilege to receive this award. I look forward to continuing to work with the school in the years ahead,” says Mosley.

Outstanding Recent Alumna Award: Dipeeka Bastola 20MSBA

The newest alumna of the three award recipients, Dipeeka Bastola 20MSBA, receives this year’s Outstanding Recent Alumna Award.

The award, which began in 1999, recognizes a recent graduate (within the last five years) who demonstrates outstanding service to Goizueta and Emory University, notable success in business, or exceptional service to the community.

Bastola is the first MS in Business Analytics degree alumna to receive this award. She currently works as a data scientist for The Home Depot.

Nominator Christine Battle, program director of Goizueta’s Master of Analytical Finance degree, speaks highly of Bastola. “Dipeeka has been a leader from the time she was admitted into the MSBA program. Now, she continues to lead as an alumna,” says Battle. “She consistently comes back to campus to share her knowledge and experience with students.”

Her warm personality and go-getter attitude have allowed many students to learn from her experiences and trust the process of going through graduate school and landing their dream role.

Christine Battle, program director, Master of Analytical Finance

“One of the greatest things about Dipeeka is she gives back beyond just the Business Analytics program. She has also served on panels and attended sessions for the Master of Analytical Finance program and other Goizueta events,” continues Battle. “Dipeeka is a true leader. She embodies what we would want all Goizueta alumni to be. She is personable, responsible, and committed to helping others succeed. I know I can always count on Dipeeka whenever I reach out to her. She is well deserving of this award.”

Alumni Service Award: Debbie Perantoni 00EvMBA

The Alumni Service Award began in 1995 to recognize alumni who demonstrate significant service to Goizueta or Emory. Debbie Perantoni 00EvMBA, director of product technology at AT&T, is this year’s recipient.

“Over the past decade of being actively engaged in the Goizueta alumni community, I’ve attended many recognition events. However, I never expected the honor of such an award,” says Perantoni. She was nominated for the honor by Jason Payton 12EvMBA, current Goizueta Alumni Board president.

I’m so grateful for the opportunity to serve. I can honestly say I get way more out of the alumni experience than I could ever hope to give back.

Debbie Perantoni 00EvMBA

Perantoni’s volunteerism to Goizueta and the greater Emory community includes multiple roles on the Goizueta Alumni Board. She is a former board president and served seven years on the board. Perantoni was instrumental in the Goizueta@Work program, helping foster an alumni community at AT&T, where she has worked for 18 years. She has also been a mentor, supported Goizueta events, sponsored two IMPACT projects, and is finishing up an MS in Business Analytics capstone project.

In his nomination, Payton wrote, “Debbie has served Goizueta in multiple capacities for many years. She is a selfless leader and has always shown the willingness to do whatever is necessary to support students, faculty, and Goizueta’s core values. Debbie represents the best of Goizueta professionally and personally.”

Congratulations to this year’s alumni award winners. As Steve Greenfield 04EvMBA emcee for this year’s ceremony said in his closing remarks of the evening: “You each are an inspiration.”

You, too, can give back to Goizueta with a contribution to the Emory 2O36 campaign.

The post Alumni Honored at Annual Alumni Awards Ceremony appeared first on EmoryBusiness.com.

“The most important aspect of the summit, and the driving force behind its creation, is to nurture entrepreneurship at Goizueta and Emory,” says Andrea Hershatter, senior associate dean of undergraduate education. “I think we do that in three ways. First, we provide connections and interactions among aspiring entrepreneurs. We also run educational workshops that highlight how successful ventures have addressed universal challenges. Most importantly, we offer inspiration in the form of alumni role models to whom our current students can relate.”

Summit Keynote

This year’s summit kicked off with a fireside chat with Cyril Berdugo 11BBA, co-founder and CEO of Landis. The company helps Americans reach the goal of homeownership through tailored coaching and a unique rent-to-own model. Since its inception in 2018, Landis has raised over $220 million from investors. These include such entities as Sequoia Capital, Google Ventures, and celebrities Jay-Z and Will Smith. Berdugo is a recipient of the Forbes 30 under 30 award. He holds a bachelor of business administration from Emory University’s Goizueta Business School and an MBA from Stanford University’s Graduate School of Business.

“To me, bringing Cyril Berdugo back to campus for our founder’s address was particularly meaningful,” says Hershatter. “It is so gratifying that he attributes the roots of his entrepreneurial journey to his experiences in the undergraduate BBA Program. He has combined that foundation with his own brilliant intellect, purpose-driven intentionality, and values that led him to build a company based on innovation and compassion. He truly embodies everything I like to think we stand for, and I am so proud to have him represent us.”

The Emory Goizueta Entrepreneurship Summit continued with the Emory Impact Investing Group panel on Diversity in Entrepreneurship, moderated by Saanvi Sood 25BBA. The panelists included Kevin Rodgers of Swaxx, Destiny Brewton of A House Called Hue, and Waleisah Wilson of Phoneix Recruiting Employment and Services, LLC.

After the panel, Hershatter moderated the luminary spotlights and lightning rounds. The focuses of this segment were payments, go-to-market strategies, and leveraging technology. The alumni luminaries included Numan Dharani 17BBA, Dustin Finkel 00BBA, Jason Kuo 19MBA, Alex Reynolds 11BBA, Omer Sattar 00BBA, and Glen Surnamer 94C.

Pitch the Summit Competition

The summit concluded with the final rounds of the Pitch the Summit competition, open to all enrolled Emory students. “Pitch the Summit offers Emory undergraduate and graduate students the opportunity to showcase their innovations and their venture development journey,” says Brian Cayce, managing director of The Roberto C. Goizueta Center for Entrepreneurship & Innovation. “Pitch the Summit is a unique event which unites startup founders from across the University and offers them support and resources from Goizueta Business School. This includes mentorship, training, and the opportunity to earn non-dilutive funding for their ventures.” The ventures competed for $25,000 in cash prizes in addition to alumni judges’ guidance in moving their ventures forward.

“In true Emory spirit, the final day of the pitch competition features a panel of judges of Goizueta Business School startup and venture luminaries,” Cayce says. “These alumni give generously of their time and talents to help these startups succeed and plan for the next steps in their entrepreneurial pathways. Pitch the Summit is an incredible resource for the entire University community. It is all made possible by the generous gifts of friends of Goizueta. It’s singular purpose is to help our world-class students blossom into world-class startup founders.”
