Why I chose MMM:
While in Toyota I realized the importance of combining tactical knowledge with more strategic skills in order to gain a full perspective of how a company operates. The MMM program seemed to be the ideal choice as it would give me the chance to understand the full product cycle - from conception and design to bringing the particular product to market. After graduating from the program I can say that MMM was far more than that. The different background of my classmates and flexible curriculum not only enriched my skills but also helped me see the greater picture.
