Profile: Maria Angelica Mejia (Colombia)

I was born in Colombia, my mother tongue Is Spanish, with an upper-intermediate level of English. My Bachelor degree is in International business, I am studying an IMBA in ISG, and a Master in Finance management in Colombia. I have always worked in Banks in the foreign trade area, but when I return to Colombia I want to start to apply all my new knowledge in a multinational company.

In the future I want to have my own consulting company involving the foreign trade, management and finance.

On sustainable development

For me sustainable development is the capacity of a country to make his growth by a responsible way, involving their surroundings, being worry about the population, the resource, the environment, the all the planet. The sustainable development also have a relation with the responsibility with the community, how to make the community or a country grow with the basic needs such as education, health, food, a place to live, etc.

I have to confess that I have always be interested in this topic, First, I have always be concerned about how consumerism and corporations make a lot of not good stuff to win a lot of money and they do not care about population, environment, nature,etc.

Also, I would like to know how I can help the world as a person and also as a manager of a company.
