"For the past year a group of MBA students at business schools worldwide, has been blogging about their experiences for the Financial Times. From arriving in a foreign land and knowing nobody, to working together in a team with complete strangers, who in time become close friends, the students have written candidly about what it means to study for an MBA. In MBA programmes generally women students tend to be in the minority, but as the blogs from our female students reveal although they may be fewer in number, nevertheless they are just as enthusiastic about their MBA journey.

MBA students working together with one or more classmates in order to complete an assignment is a norm in most MBA programs. Working together successfully often depends on how well the group shares information. This usually means sharing a document or file of some kind, such as an MS Word document, PowerPoint presentation, PDF file, picture, graphic, or a spreadsheet. While MBA students working together may be the norm for most MBA programs, providing students effective and efficient ways of sharing documents is not. The answer for most MBA programs is to let students find their own solution, which usually means using email and file attachments. Much better solutions are available, many of which are consumer-focused, user friendly, and free.
