This is how it went.\u00a0<\/span><\/i><!--more--><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A couple of years ago I decided I wanted to further invest in my education; I was looking for an executive MBA, but at the same time I felt the need to delve deeper into the topic of the digital transformation, which I knew was increasingly urgent and important for the market and businesses.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Thanks to these two premises, I came to hear of the <\/span><b>International Executive MBA<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> provided by BBS and its program, which could meet both of my targets.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I\u2019m currently a few weeks short of the end of an experience that helped me better understand how <\/span><b>to be the<\/b> <b>protagonist in a path of digital transformation within the company<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Right now, my fellow students and I are busy completing the <\/span><b>final project work<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, a summary of all the experience and knowledge developed during the Master\u2019s. Like it is at the end of a journey, there are excitement and ferment, but it\u2019s also a moment in which it\u2019s almost a spontaneous reaction to look back, at the path covered till now. If I were to assess the last 15 months, I can say I was given the opportunity to grow professionally exchanging ideas and opinions with my colleagues, by now actual friends, who come from different industries and countries. I was able to enhance <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">my approach on work and the company with <\/span><b>new perspectives <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">and I have <\/span><b>extended my network by <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">getting in contact with professionals from different sectors and multi-faceted backgrounds.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">After the days of attendance in person during which I fully experienced the <\/span><b>richness of the exchange of views<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, we had to deal with the health emergency, which immediately caused restrictions. In a timely fashion, BBS ensured <\/span><b>the shift to the<\/b> <b>online mode <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">of lecture attendance and with the constructive support of the students, they made the necessary changes, investing, and organizing occasions to exchange ideas and to further analyze different topics. In such a complex and delicate period, the launch and consolidation of the <\/span><b>BBS Community<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> enabled me to preserve the relationship and <\/span><b>network<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> aspects, which I believe are essential when you attend a Master\u2019s, as well as to develop a sense of belonging and sharing which I will keep beyond the end of the educational path.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Gianluca Sardella, Inland Sales Account Manager and participant in the International Executive MBA, is now near the end of a path that saw him, together with his fellow students and all the BBS Community, deal with the shift from attending in person to attending online.
