Student Testimonial

 The session gave me good insights into how change management is operationalised in a major global company. It brought textbook lessons to life. It changed a lot of my taken-for-granted assumptions in how Airbus manages air operations, such as being mindful of lingo differences between departments when communicating change, and even how something simple like calculating the quantity of water to carry requires complex decision making.
