Professor Stephen Bach, Executive Dean of King's Business School, commented on the challenges the new graduates had to overcome to achieve their academic success:

"You are part of a unique generation of students. For over a year, you have continued your studies, successfully completed your assessments online, and supported each other through the challenges of a global pandemic. All of us at King's Business School take great pride in what you have achieved. We are proud that you chose to come here for your studies. We are proud of the progress you have made and the determination and resilience you have shown to achieve your degree. We are proud of your energy and thoughtfulness and of the good we are sure you will do in the world. On behalf of everyone at King's Business School, I wish you all the very best and good luck in your future endeavours!"

Professor Stephen Bach, Executive Dean of King's Business School

Professor Dirk vom Lehn, Director of the International Management BSc programme, noted the disruptions faced by this year's International Management graduates, whose year of work or study abroad was interrupted by the pandemic outbreak, forcing many to make new plans:

"There is no doubt: you are persistent, resilient, and creative in dealing with sudden changes to your personal as well as to global circumstances."
