From Introvert to Public Speaker | GLOBIS Stories Podcast with Mai

GLOBIS Stories podcast host Tanner Schroeder is joined by recent GLOBIS alumni and self-admitted introvert, Mai, who conquered the MBA journey in Tokyo. Mai, originally from the Philippines and with a background in education, shares her career path, including 14 years of teaching English and training teachers in Hanoi, Vietnam, and her decision to pursue an MBA after a "midlife crisis." Discover how Mai, a graduate of the 2024 GLOBIS full-time program, went from an Industrial Design undergrad to a teacher passionate about emotional intelligence and storytelling. Mai discusses how the required classroom participation at GLOBIS forced her to break out of her shell, how she found her Kokorozashi (personal mission) of helping children become "more human," and her experience applying for scholarships and relocating to Japan.
