Emiko Ikeda

During my two years at the Nagoya University of Commerce Business School, I systematically learned the essential knowledge for managers, such as diverse perspectives, structural thinking skills, the essentials of strategy practice, and risk management, which I was able to naturally apply to my daily work. With each class, I felt a sense of personal growth and a responsive change in the dimensions of my thinking. In an environment where we are always expected to set high goals and do our best, it was a more stimulating and enjoyable experience than I had ever imagined to keep challenging myself to be the "best me" I could be. The successes I experienced in the process gave me unshakable confidence in myself, and the sense of satisfaction and affirmation that I had completed my efforts has become an irreplaceable asset in my career.

I am still continuing my search for the "challenge with no right answer. I would like to continue learning so that I can be a person who continues to make small steps forward.
