LBS is a truly diverse school. People are really approachable and responsive - From my experience beginning with coffee chats when I was contemplating to apply to my experience now as an alum, I can say this. Whenever they can, people do help out. Generally you don't see cut-throat sense of competition. Collaboration and respecting others is important here.

Learning and working in a highly diverse environment was one of the most rewarding aspects of my MBA experience. At Amazon, I operate across more than 10 countries, and the highly diverse student body at LBS was an excellent preparation for this. It allowed me to be exposed to and learn about cultures, work habits, and opinions I never knew before. This experience has been helpful in creating meaningful connections with my colleagues, adjusting my working style based on geography, and better communicating internally and externally.
