Dear Copenhagen Business School,
Management can move mountains with the right tools and teams. But it requires a deeper understanding of the aspects of economics, marketing and competition. This is my motivation for learning this discipline with you.
I have always been close to the job market, never standing still or accepting status quo. Along the way, I found myself wanting to expand my professional knowledge and find new solutions to complex everyday situations in my jobs. This is why I am now applying for a place in your BSc International Business programme at CBS.
Your strong academic reputation, competitive environment, and emphasis on real-world application seems like the best place to develop the analytical and strategic skills necessary to navigate the complexities that are international business.
My academic journey began with an HHX education, where I focused on international business, marketing, and business economics. I thrived in a competitive learning environment, first in Grenaa and later in Aarhus, where I became part of a new academic culture and further developed my resilience and ambition. My eagerness to learn about business economics and mathematics has remained strong, and I am still particularly interested in how companies optimize processes, manage financial resources across borders, and adapt to international market conditions.
Since graduating in 2022, I have worked for various companies that have provided me with insights into business operations. These three years, I have held leadership roles in retail as well as project management in corporate settings.
As Assisting Manager in Joe & The Juice, I was entrusted with operational responsibilities and was even offered a two-year leadership programme. Later, I managed a café, taking charge of scheduling, marketing, and financial oversight. These roles help me reinforce my ability to find solutions – but also made me realise my need for further education that can support my decision-making.
Currently working with The Orange Capital Partners as a Junior Leasing Manager, I assist with new development and investments to improve loan options. It has taught me a hands-on approach to pricing, presenting, marketing collaborations and international team efforts that I look forward to bringing with me to your programme.
I never stop moving. It’s my signature. I exercise all kinds of sports and social activities, because I truly want the most out of everything. Just like competition. It motivates me to
improve, to build a network and to do my best. I seek to specialise, to use it for
optimising marketing and to understand the broad field of the business landscape.
What sets me apart, is my combination of practical business experience and an
analytical mindset. I have regularly applied theoretical knowledge to real-world
business challenges, refining my strategic thinking and leadership skills. My goal is to
build a strong foundation in international business and later pursue a master's degree,
ultimately stepping into a leadership role where I can oversee complex business
strategies and drive innovation in global markets.
I am eager to contribute my experience, ambition, and collaborative spirit to CBS and
the BSc IB programme. Thank you for your time and consideration. I look forward to the
possibility of joining Copenhagen Business School and taking the next step in my
academic and professional journey.
