“My strategy class helped me
understand how a business
can be quickly successful if it
can tap into markets that have
not been explored or with no
competition. I also learned
how to deal with multiple
issues at the same time without
losing focus on the big picture.”

Isabelle Lescent-
Giles, PhD
French & American
Strategy & Family
Business Professor
Isabelle’s background is perfectly
“Hult,” with her pure blend of
academia and consulting weaving
back over the last 20 years. She’s
taught at Oxford University, the
Sorbonne, NYU, and USF as well
as held consulting roles in the U.S.
and Paris. Isabelle says, “I learned
the importance of frameworks at
McKinsey. Without solid data,
you lack credibility and you make
major mistakes. In strategy and
leadership, there is no right or
wrong decision. You have to make a
call based on a deep understanding
of an organization’s values and
resources and on new threats
and opportunities in the external
environment. I love watching students
build a strong case for innovation
and social impact and grow their
confidence as decision makers.”
