Admission: Leadership Development course
How do you imagine your future?
- are your current mindset and knowledge, experience and business connections sufficient for serious achievements you want?
- are you ready to meet the challenges of accelerating changes and use the upcoming new opportunities?
Traditional perceptions of education and work are obsolete:
- technological development is accelerating: if your job can be divided into routine operations (e.g. accounting, translation) or requires low-effort creativity, and its automation is viable from the business perspective, then it will be inevitably automated
- world is open: you will be impacted by factors which are out of immediate sight and not necessarily related to your profession e.g. you will be forced to compete with millions of qualified professionals from other countries
What kind of education is needed in such conditions not to simply survive, but to develop and realize serious goals?
- goal-oriented
Traditional education prepares you to become a common specialist, this "Leadership Development" course prepares you to become a new generation leader. - insightful
Established leaders and professionals share their experience and visions with you. - practical
You can put your new knowledge into practice, and implement student projects. - with networking opportunities

What is required from you?
