“This exchange was more than an academic stay; it was a 
transformative experience that changed my perspective on the world.”  
Maëlle Danquigny- Audencia Business School Student

"This South Africa immersion experience transformed the way I view leadership, faith, and cross-cultural connection. 

I learned that leadership is about vulnerability, presence, and listening well. 

The philosophy of Ubuntu—"I am because we are"—was lived out daily, especially in Langa and at Tsiba, 

where business and community were inseparable.  I leave this trip forever changed, 

with lifelong friendships and a renewed passion to lead with love, prayer, and cultural humility."

John- UNC- Kenan Flagler Business School Student



"I participated in this program as a student from Northeastern University. 

I had such a great time getting to work alongside the TSIBA students. 

This program was an excellent way to meet locals, learn more about 

South African culture, and develop a stronger understanding of business and entrepreneurship."

Sabina- Northeastern University Student
