“As the second group of Practicum gets to start, we are noticing a growing interest in the programme expressed in the regions and by mid-sized industrial companies. This is good: it means that we have companies who understand the need for their own development, want to scale their business and achieve operational efficiency. This might be a just a dawning trend, but it is positive,” - said Dean of the SKOLKOVO business school Andrey Sharonov.
The first day of training was structured with the purpose to familiarize the participants with each other and to promote team building. After the customary greetings, the group had Dialogue in the Dark personal growth workshop, which allowed the participants to make a connection and learn to interact in precarious situations.
The day ended with a meeting with Gor Nakhapetyan who stood at the cradle of the SKOLKOVO business school.
Four activity-packed modules lie ahead: seminars, workshops, business games, practical project work, meeting the key figures of Russian business and other prominent people, and even more.
