On this occasion, a Round Table was organized about ‘Innovation in Talent Management’ which reflects our quest to anticipate our industries needs while bringing innovative solutions to a sector still very much driven by emotion and feelings. Any company that competes on the global stage must, in light of today’s changing workforce, rethink the way it manages its people. | |
| Distinguished guest speakers were invited from London School of Economics, from the Institute of Hospitality in London, from Barclays plc as well as from Mosimann’s in order to debate about one of the toughest challenges: People Management. The Round Table was followed afterwards by two presentations by Prof. Dr. Demen-Meier about the F&B Chair as well as by Prof. Dr. Ray F. Iunius about the Institute of Innovation and Entrepreneurship. |
