“It was my third doctoral degree” says Maryna Averkyna who on January 24 successfully defended her Doctoral Thesis in EBS. “It is necessary to study continuously, every day. If I want to be a good lecturer, what knowledge can I share with my students if I don’t study myself?”

EBS doctoral student Liisi Karindi: multicultural teams are the norm of modern society

"I've been asked if I have any Chinese friends. I never think of my close people in these terms – that he is Chinese, or she is German or Estonian. Not as a male or female friend either. In the international community, I have learned to evaluate people based on completely different criteria," says Liisi Karindi, an Asian expert, PhD student, and Research Fellow at EBS, whose study focuses on how to benefit the company through the development of intercultural competence.

The broader topic of the conference was Energy and Economy. The law of conservation of energy also applies in the economy, including organizations - energy is neither created nor lost, it can only change from one form to another. Where does energy come from and where does it disappear in the economy? How to ensure that people - both managers and employees - do not run out of energy? How to ensure that the energy does not flow out of the universities? The EMS conference was a good opportunity to take some time off and create new energy together.

Modesty is a virtue but you will manage better in life without it!
