While in Ukraine, Dr Leslie Szamosi, Director of the Executive MBA programme of the International Faculty, also visited Lviv where he delivered a seminar on 'Getting the Top to Listen'. Building a Business Case" to the members of the Western Office of the European Business Association (EBA). The seminar took place on 21 February 2019.
Dr Szamosi’s presentation was focused on guiding participants to get their voice heard and their ideas communicated to members of a company’s or organisation’s top management. “No matter how good our idea, no matter the area, senior management listens to the business case!” argued Dr Szamosi and continued: “When organisations are going through changes or need to re-evaluate and think through new concepts and ideas, many times (if not all times) we need the support of senior management to make things happen. But, it seems like they are not listening!”
The seminar concluded with participants having a clearer understanding of what decision-makers are looking for and of how to target them both intellectually and emotionally with information.
During the seminar Dr Szamosi shared his knowledge and experience and discussed with participants this very innovative topic.
