Testimonial

I really enjoyed the peer mentoring and was pleased we were left to create our leadership session at the World Health Summit.

Lloyd Nash, General and Acute Care physician & Founder Global Ideas
Testimonial

A wonderfully designed programme which speaks directly to the desperate need for leadership training among young leaders in medicine. The programme is highly personal, but still manages to capitalise on the opportunity for group-learning.

The leadership workshops were really terrific. The ESMT Berlin's facilitation was truly excellent and pushed my thinking to an advanced level, especially on creating and managing teams.
