【Message】
Traits of a global businessperson can be roughly divided in a matrix with axes of “Professional Competences” and “Intercultural Competences”. One that is highly capable in both competences is considered to be a global business leader. Train hard this year at the ABL program and change yourself into a highly competent global professional. See you in class!
