After building a global career across Asia, Chris Tyler found his purpose in sustainability — and a path to a new future through the MBA programme at Copenhagen Business School (CBS).
Chris Tyler, a 29-year-old from Atlanta, Georgia, transitioned into a sustainability-focused career after earning his MBA from Copenhagen Business School (CBS). Drawn by CBS's strong emphasis on sustainability and Denmark's leadership in the field, he chose the one-year programme to gain practical experience and a deeper understanding of sustainable business practices.
During his studies, Chris participated in the Leadership Discovery Process, which included a wilderness expedition in Sweden to develop leadership skills. He also benefited from CBS's mentorship programme and networking opportunities, which helped him secure a position as a Management Consultant at a Danish engineering consulting firm. In this role, he advises clients on integrating EU sustainability directives into their business strategies, focusing on areas like renewable energy and carbon capture.
