Global Leadership

Design Thinking
Being creative in business is not a choice, it’s an obligation. Managers’ ability to come with new and useful ideas is becoming more important as competition has moved from efficiency towards innovation. Creativity mixes inspiration with stimulation. These sessions will deal with Design Thinking as a methodology for idea generation.

World Economic Outlook – Global Trends
The invasion of Ukraine has contributed to a significant slowdown in global growth in 2022. Its spillovers through commodity markets, trade, and financial channels are contributing to increase the world inflation. Indeed, fuel and food prices have increased rapidly. The combination of output decline and elevated inflation is complicating the trade-offs central banks are facing between containing price pressures and safeguarding growth. Interest rates are rising exerting pressure on indebted economies. Moreover, many countries have limited fiscal policy space to cushion the impact of the output slowdown on their economies. We will analyse some of the key global trends that will dictate the economic, social and political discussion in the coming years.
