My name is Christian Kruse, I'm 34 years old, and I am auctioning off part of my future earnings to finance my MBA studies.

Background

I grew up in Alabama but spent most of my life in Copenhagen. I enjoy mountaineering and travelling. My dad taught me batch programming when I was 10 years old, at 15 I was learning Pascal at night school. When I was 21 years old I founded a large internet cafe in central Copenhagen. My friends and I get together to play board games and enjoy food, beer, and music.

Jörg Seeberg-Elverfelt - then Manager, Capacent Management Consulting

“Christian has the rare skills to be very sensitive to what people say and not say, when moving around in the client organization.”

Jesper Laursen - Communications Officer, Novo Nordisk Foundation

“I trust his advice.”

Bo Bager - then Manager, Capacent Management Consulting

“[Christian] has the ability to work through complex structures without losing sight of the objective.”

Lars Døring - Global Partner Enablement Manager, Compuware APM

“[Christian] has a very good sense of humor and is both very well respected and well-liked by his colleagues.”

Verner Buch-Larsen - Senior Manager, KPMG Management Consulting

“Christian has an honest, calm, approach to the people around him; defusing situations as they arise.”

Jörg Seeberg-Elverfelt - then Manager, Capacent Management Consulting

“Christian has strong problem solving skills. This has effectively been seen when [developing] a new collaboration model between client and vendor.”

Lars Døring - Global Partner Enablement Manager, Compuware APM

“One of Christian’s major strengths is his professional creativity. He is excellent at analyzing a problem and deciding how to solve it.”

“[Christian] is extremely nice to work with and has a special gift for making people come together on a difficult task.”


I've been admitted to INSEAD's 1-year accelerated Master of Business Administration (MBA) programme in Singapore and France, beginning January 6, 2014. The MBA is an excellent complement to my master's degree in Computer Science and my Graduate Diploma in Accounting Control and Process Management.

Since early 2001 I've been working in the IT industry, aside from a short stint in Iraq as a Combat Medic, I haven't ever wanted to do anything else. My roles have ranged from IT operations and systems administration, through advisory and consultancy, to sales enablement and education. You can view my profile on LinkedIn or you can click here to request a more detailed CV from me - I'd be happy to walk you through the details and provide references.

Direction

INSEAD's MBA programme will build my global professional network and outlook, further develop my entrepreneurial and leadership competencies, grow my personal ability to perform and deliver under pressure, and document my business skills and insights. Moreover, I just really like learning new things and understanding how the world plugs together.

If you would like to know more or just want to chat, please don’t hesitate to get in contact.
