First Day@HSG
The second was during Winfried's session where we were asked to team up and come up with our expectations from the MBA program.. which was followed by St Gallen's strategies to help us get us to our dream aspirations post MBA. Hmm interesting!!!
Anyways , later in the evening we the MBA team organized a dinner for all of us…
well well well! that's being very generous I'd say (no wonder the MBA fees the world over is at an all time high!!)
For the uninitiated, a Cheese Fondue is the dish where in a large bowl of molten cheese is placed in the centre of the table and a flame is lit below… bread crumbs are picked using a long fork and dipped in this molten cheese and eaten… another variation is a meat fondue.. where u use meat instead of bread and dip the meat into the cheese
While the sweeter variation is the chocolate fondue.. where fruit pieces like banana, apple etc are dipped into a bowl of molten chocolate…
It is a must try if u want to get a taste of the Swiss way of life.. most swiss guys swear by it..
The dinner was a blast.. The Fondue, the wine, the drizzle… ah it was as if the Swiss gods (& HSG MBA team) were trying their best to make it a memorable first day for us all at St Gallen.. We had such a great time… we just sat for a long while drinking .. talking… dipping our bread and spirits in the swiss fondue! This was also symbolic in the sense that being a small group of carefully selected people .. we look forward to harmonious life long friendship…and nothing better than a fondue to mark the beginning of our shared learning experience!
The first introduction week had much more in store… don't go away.. stay Tuned!!!
Stuart!!
