Introduction to Summer School
The future is much closer than you think! Today you are a student, but tomorrow may be a successful entrepreneur, eminent scientist, or a world-known politician. But do you know what is common to all of them? In most cases these people are leaders. Leadership is the ability of an individual or a group of individuals to influence and guide followers or other members of an organization. Leadership anticipates decision making, creating and articulating a clear vision, establishing achievable goals, and providing followers with the knowledge and tools necessary to achieve intended targets. And did you know that leaders are made, not born? It is possible to learn to be a leader and this summer school is all about that!
Truly global leaders act as bridge builders, connectors of resources and talents across cultural and political boundaries — relentlessly dedicated to finding new ways of creating value. They don’t just think and act global, they are global. The global mind-set allows leaders to connect with individuals and organizations
across boundaries. We will show you how to develop global leadership skills – problem solving, analytical skills, team building, etc.
During summer school students will develop the ability to synthesize multiple perspectives on globalization and global leadership, strengthening their problem resolution and leadership skills. Participants will improve written, oral communication and presentation skills along with skills in debating, analysing, formulating and defending arguments as well as case study analysis.
