Skål to Biz Scand

Hej! I’m Raina Rode and this travel course to Scandinavia will be the last class for my MBA from Chapman University! I completed my undergraduate degree in Business Administration with an emphasis in Finance also from Chapman in 2021. I loved my experience at Chapman so much that I wanted to continue with my Masters, and I can’t wait to complete my time at the university with this trip! Through this course, I am excited to learn more about Scandinavian values and how they differ from that of an American approach to business.

Hej, allihopa! My name is Veronica Silva and I am also graduating from the Chapman MBA program after this trip! I am thrilled to be able to spend two full weeks with everyone in this course and form deeper bonds! I am looking forward to learning more about the Scandinavian culture and how they operate their businesses. After researching more about the businesses we will be visiting during our time in Sweden and Denmark, seeing the projects in person will serve as a great learning experience alongside my Chapman peers! 

We are so excited to be traveling to Skelletfleå, Stockholm, Copenhagen, and Gothenburg! Through this blog, we will share our global perspective on business operations, Scandinavian sustainability practices, and trending lifestyle themes seen across the region! We hope to take knowledge from our time abroad and apply it to our careers. Get ready for the Swede life of Raina and Veronica!
