Personal statement

With the aspiration to work in the field of business administration, I have challenged myself by working in several positions at medium and large-sized international companies.

Interacting with senior colleagues and international customers in a dynamic and challenging environment has helped me to learn and become accustomed to working under tremendous pressure.

I’m proud of my commitments, but the world is ever-changing and Vietnam is still rushing forward. The movement of startup companies has activated and the rise of small and medium-sized enterprises is noticeable in my country. However, a burning spirit cannot be the entire story since I have witnessed many cases that lost their track because of a lack of professional knowledge.

I have a strong belief that I can continue to develop my skills in management, as it is a demanding field that requires years of experience and expertise. The Master of Global Trade will help me reach a new level of self-improvement, by studying with excellent people and being guided by experienced lecturers. I am willing to step up so that I would be a part of a new, dynamic and confident generation of workforce.

I strongly believe that alongside the RMIT University, the Hinrich Foundation will help increase my impact on organizations. They will also extend my opportunity to join a network of business experts who are equipped with the courage to reach challenging goals, and to gain unmatched credibility as a global leader in trade management.
