Laura Brandes

General Manager Europe, Victorinox, Switzerland

So many takeaways. I learned how to be future ready, for my organization and my own career. I have great frameworks to develop my team and for digital transformation. I can see challenges in my organization from a different perspective. I learned a lot from all the cases and other participants. I had wonderful breakthroughs in the coaching session. I also learn from the ESG session and how I might be pushing weak performance without realizing it. Fabulous and insightful 10 days – I love this program.
