MBA Reunion at Frankfurt School

Last Saturday, more than 120 FS alumni from the Part-time MBA, Full-time MBA, Executive MBA and MBA in International Healthcare Management programmes celebrated the big MBA Reunion at the campus Frankfurt.

Professor Dr Nils Stieglitz, CEO and President at Frankfurt School, welcomed the participants in an opening speech. A special highlight of the day was the subsequent keynote speech by Dan McCrum, investigative journalist at Financial Times, who spoke about the uncovering of the Wirecard scandal. Following his presentation, he discussed with the participants how such a scandal can be prevented in the future and what we can learn from it.

After a coffee break, the event continued with three exciting workshops led by FS graduates:

André Pieger, Director Digitalisation at FATH GmbH and EMBA alumnus, gave insights into the topic of artificial intelligence in his presentation "Becoming AI-Compatible: Adjusting the Managerial Lens".

Yasemin Derviscemallioglu, General Counsel at Uberall and EMBA alumna, held a workshop entitled "The Business Case for Value-Based Leadership: Cultivating Mindful and Authentic Leadership for Stakeholder Value".

Vishakha Oza, Associate Director - Global Aggregate Report Office and PV Writing Lead at CSL, and MBA in International Healthcare Management alumna, spoke on key principles for managing culturally diverse teams.

The MBA Reunion provided an excellent opportunity to catch up with old fellow students on the Frankfurt School campus and make new contacts. With live music, drinks and fingerfood, the MBA alumni were able to round off the evening in a relaxed atmosphere.
