Georgia Southern Alumni Michiel Soeting Former Global Lead Partner at KPMG

Michiel Soeting ’84

Chairman of the Audit Committee at Veon

It was a great opportunity. If you’re from a relatively small country, to be able to study in the United States and to get to know a different culture broadens your horizons. If I step back, those were very formative years. If you’re young and you’re in a different environment, clearly it has quite an impact on you going forward.

Mackenzie Anderson, ’07

Director of Global Purpose Communications and Engagement at Nike

The foundation that Georgia Southern provided me has carried throughout my career. As communicators, we were taught the immense power words have to motivate and mobilize people to help shape a better world. At our core, we have to understand the relationship between the people we’re trying to reach and the brand we’re representing to build trust and belief. My professors instilled in me a global mindset that was rooted in recognizing and highlighting diversity.
