LBS MBA graduates featured in P&Q’s ‘MBAs To Watch’ list

London Business School (LBS) graduates Kanika Bhachawat and Dezhi Yu are featured in Poets & Quants’ list of ‘MBAs To Watch: Class of 2023’.

The annual list features outstanding graduates from MBA programmes around the world.

Kanika, who describes herself as “someone who is always ready to try new things!”, is passionate about diversity and was the Student Association Advocacy Lead during her time at LBS, ensuring that the student voice was heard in LBS’ decision-making process for anything related to diversity, equity, inclusion and belonging.

She said that her desire for global exposure to the world of business is what drew her to LBS.

“In the long term, I see myself as a global business leader and therefore wanted my MBA experience to give me that global exposure. LBS came out as a clear winner there.”

Dezhi, who was President of the LBS Student Association (SA) and gave an inspirational speech to graduates at LBS’ Congregation ceremony in July 2023, strengthened the ESG focus of the SA and student clubs during his time at the School. He was drawn to the diversity of the student body, which was a significant factor in him choosing LBS for his MBA.

“I wanted to join a truly global cohort of young professionals, exchange ideas and build connections,” he said.
