Students courses

In conjunction with its partner companies, the Chair expresses all its pedagogical potential for students throughout the Grande Ecole curriculum through 13 programmes. Thus, the learning of leadership and the personal development of future managers is achieved through numerous courses, seminars and a Certificate as well as through access to all the Chair's conferences.

SEMINARS: DISCOVERING LEADERSHIP AND MANAGEMENT

The seminar "Benchmarks to decide": 
On the basis of Jungian psychological types (MBTI), students identify with which natural preferences they perceive the world and situations; they deduce their "profile" and the work environments with which they most closely match. If they want to go further in this inventory of personal resources, they can also work in depth on what underlies their identity, so as to shed more light on their first choices of specialisation at EDHEC and their first professional experiences. More broadly, this seminar is a reflective journey to better understand oneself in order to exercise one's responsibility and make conscious choices.

The "Team Management" seminar:
From the first year, students discover the requirements of the managerial function; they question their desire to lead teams and take stock of their resources and those to be cultivated during their learning path. Thanks to a pedagogical formula that brings together managers and professors in professional situations, they are led to review their beliefs about leadership and to invest their posture as future managers.
