Culture

People come to Berkeley Haas to change their careers. They leave here ready to change the world. Throughout their careers, our students, faculty, and graduates use the tools of business to create positive impact.

It starts with our culture. We embrace new thinking and intellectual curiosity. We believe in the power of collaboration and inclusiveness. People come to Berkeley Haas confident in their abilities, yet aware that there is always more to learn and explore.

Like you, we don’t hesitate to ask questions. We make decisions based on evidence and rigorous analysis. We understand the need to lead ethically and responsibly, to take the long view, and to put larger interests above our own.

At Berkeley Haas, you will be part of a talented, supportive community guided by a shared commitment to our four Defining Leadership Principles:

Question the Status Quo

We thrive at the epicenter of innovation. We make progress by speaking our minds even when it challenges convention. We lead by championing bold ideas and taking intelligent risks.

Confidence Without Attitude

We make decisions based on evidence and analysis, giving us the confidence to act with humility. We foster collaboration by building a foundation of empathy, inclusion, and trust.

Students Always

We are a community designed to support curiosity. We actively seek out diverse perspectives as part of our lifelong pursuit of personal and intellectual growth. There is always more to learn.

Beyond Yourself

We shape our world by leading ethically and responsibly. As stewards of our enterprises, we take the longer view in our decisions and actions. This often means putting the collective good above our own interests.

“Being around my classmates was enriching in every sense. They all were incredibly smart and willing to try new things. The mix of young people and those with more experience in the industry or academia meant everyone brought a different perspective to discussions and projects.”
