THIS COURSE WILL BE FULLY ONLINE to allow a broader variety of guests. Join Zoom Meeting https://cesnet.zoom.us/j/98662747641 This is an interactive course led by Executive Coach Misa Kozinova who not only has 20 years of leadership experience in IT, but also coaches and mentors highly successful people within the field. Many of her clients, such as VP of Engineering and Head of Product Management in Kiwi.com, Chief Finance Officer at Mews, CEO of Safetice, HR Business Partner at Konica Minolta, VP of People at Slido, former Director of Red Hat, and many others will speak about their career journey, the hurdles they had to overcome and what it means to "manage in reality" from their perspective. You will have a unique chance to steer the discussion by asking questions. The students will identify the essentials for successful business management - the focus needed, and the skills in balancing customer, employee and business in ever changing environment.
