Travelogue 1

The perfect starting point for people with a strong sense of direction.

As a recent MBA graduate, you'll join our Strategy & Business Development (SBD) team. Where you go from there is largely up to you. We'll provide the guidance, the resources and the opportunity to grow one of our many business units. You provide the drive to help us reach our destination.

SBD has two purposes: to develop high potential managers for Cargill and to provide high quality strategic, financial and operational thinking for Cargill's worldwide corps of executives and business unit leaders. SBD focuses on four areas of expertise: strategy development, mergers and acquisitions, new business development, and corporate strategic initiatives.

My time in Strategy & Business Development gave me the chance to learn about Cargill and observe in a very detailed way how senior managers work. It was great training in how to think like a business leader."
