BUSINESS AND BEYOND
At Hult, you’ll learn
about the world
Cultural differences matter
more than ever, so at Hult
you’ll be immersed in diversity
from day one.
Global businesses are run by local people
Globalization is a fact of business life. Markets are more
interconnected than ever before, companies are becoming
multinational quicker, and global trade is taking a bigger
and bigger percentage of global GDP.
However, business practices remain resolutely local.
Attitudes to things like time keeping, communication style,
and consensus building are deeply rooted in the local
culture. Failure to navigate these fundamental differences
is a major reason for not succeeding in international
business. As a result, employers are increasingly looking to
hire people with the ability to operate in a culturally
diverse environment.
Alena Vorozheykina, Class of 2018, and her team
share ideas on how to approach their project.
Learn to work across cultures
The classroom diversity at Hult is unparalleled. Over the
course of their degree, the average Hult student will work
directly with teammates of over 30 different nationalities.
Exposure to this broad range of cultures ensures that you
graduate with a true appreciation of cultural differences
and a deep understanding of how to navigate these
effectively and sensitively in a working environment.
You can also choose to take advantage of Hult’s global
campus network to gain on-the-ground experience of
international business around the world. Our unique Global
Campus Rotation enables you to study at any or all of our
six campuses, whether in Boston, London, or San Francisco
for the full academic year, or Dubai, Shanghai, or Ashridge

advantage of the opportunity to study at more than one
campus and experience different cultures.
Graduate with a global mindset
Whichever route you choose through Hult, you are
guaranteed to learn what makes other cultures tick, have
an international perspective on business, and graduate
with friends and connections all over the world—an
incredibly valuable asset in your international career. Being
