Bodo Schlegelmilch – who has been Chair of the Association of MBAs and Business Graduates Association since 2018, relinquished the role at the end of September this year.
Wendy Loretto said: ‘I am delighted and honoured to be taking over this role from Bodo – his exemplary stewardship of the board has undoubtedly contributed to the growth and reputation of AMBA & BGA. I am passionate about working with and in the business school community to ensure we are constantly improving, learning and innovating, and look forward to meeting as many of you as possible over the coming years.’
Andrew Main Wilson, CEO of AMBA & BGA added: ‘It has been a privilege and a pleasure to work closely with Bodo over these last six years – a period which has seen AMBA & BGA achieve record growth to 294 AMBA accredited business schools and over 60,000 student & graduate members and the launch of BGA in 2019, which has grown dramatically to 235 business school members and 30 accredited schools in just four years. I very much look forward to working with Wendy and building further on the success of these past six years.’
