expandI’m curious about
expandIn my teaching work, I am most interested in inspiring students. We carry out class programs, learn the literature and at the same time all the time try to translate the learned content into practice. Since you can most often find me teaching Business Model Canvas, management strategy, elements of project management or distributed project team, it is in these areas that we think together about how to break the status quo, how to design services, plan activities to actually manage creatively and become a source of inspiration. It is substantive and always fun. I believe that knowledge can be transferred in a professional and accessible way.
