At Austral Group, we are thrilled to commemorate our 20th anniversary—a milestone built on fostering global experiences and meaningful partnerships. One collaboration that truly exemplifies our mission is our decade-long relationship with Northwestern University, including the Kellogg School of Management. Since 2013, we have worked alongside Northwestern University to deliver a broad range of immersive programs, including Kellogg’s Executive MBA experiences, the Global Immersions in Management (“GIM”) courses, and the signature, student-led KWEST trips, supporting their mission to provide opportunities that inspire students to learn beyond borders and engage deeply with the global business landscape.
Melissa Holland, Austral Group’s Director of Education and Community Engagement, recently sat down with Greg Hanifee, Associate Dean for Graduate Programs at Kellogg.
Before joining Austral Group, Melissa Holland was part of the leadership team for Kellogg’s Executive MBA Global Network, gaining firsthand insight into their commitment to leadership across the world and immersive education. Her experience at Kellogg gives her a deep appreciation for the institution’s mission and a unique perspective on the value of international programs.
This candid discussion explored the role of global immersion in business education, Kellogg’s commitment to sustainability, and the trends reshaping the future of business learning.
