Feedback from previous STAR scholars:
I have taken some amazing notes and kept the one-liners at my desk from the inspirational speakers. Hearing the journeys of these outstanding individuals made me feel really motivated and reiterated not to worry when challenges show up.”
Gurpreet Saluja, Wells Fargo
The daily mentoring sessions left the best impression – their advice and anecdotes will stay with me for some time to come when planning and navigating my career.”
Mona Tan, Standard Chartered Bank
I was very inspired by some mentors and colleagues from the programme who emphasised that it is not your position or rank that matters, but the skills that we acquire by taking on a variety of different assignments. This changed my approach to my personal development.”
Monika Leśniak, Euroclear
The speakers were great and I really liked the fact that they were holding very diverse functions, within very different organisations, from financial crime studies to fintechs.”
