ADA University hosted a joint session with the PwC CEE.

Building a successful career requires getting to know the shifting perspectives and challenges of a competitive job market, learning the experience of professionals, and also networking with representatives of prestigious companies.
Aiming to support professional growth and knowledge of students on business landscape, ADA University hosted a joint session with the PwC Partners from Central & Eastern Europe.
The joint session which brought together the future of business and society gathered 25 new Partners from PwC CEE with 75 students from the MBA and Public Policy programs.
The session moderated by Blair Sheppard, PwC’s Global Leader for Strategy and Leadership, and featured the participation of Mr. Fariz Ismailzade, Executive Vice-Rector of ADA University; Nick Kós, the CEO of PwC CEE; and Movlan Pashayev, Country Managing Partner of PwC Azerbaijan.
“After decades of accelerating globalization, what we witness today is a tendency for the world economy to become more multipolar, while at the same time we are faced with a number of potentially cataclysmic challenges: from climate change and rising inequality to the impacts of a far-reaching technological revolution. The next generation of business and world leaders will need to find creative ways to address these challenges, by embracing what I call the six paradoxes of leadership. Today’s excellent discussion with the bright students of the ADA Business School generated many interesting ideas about how business leaders need to engage with the wider community to try to find solutions for the many challenges that the world is faced with today,” said Blair Sheppard, PwC Global Leader for Strategy and Leadership.
