🔊As my first semester abroad nears its end, I interviewed the CEO of ESSCA Grande École de Management🇨🇵 I had the opportunity to interview Jean CHARROIN, CEO of ESSCA. Thank you, Mr.Charroin, for your time and for enhancing my experience here. As a student in France, I feel it’s only fitting to write this piece in French😊 Partenariat avec DCU🇮🇪: L'ESSCA et Dublin City University offre un enrichissement académique et culturel unique, alliant divers styles d'apprentissage. Cette collaboration montre comment «les institutions irlandaises encouragent la curiosité et l'apprentissage autonome,» contrastant avec l’approche «plus structurée et centrée sur la salle de classe» en France. Par les programmes d'échange et initiatives conjointes, les étudiants développent des compétences clés, équilibrant autonomie et structure pour réussir dans des carrières internationales. Il favorise «l’apprentissage interculturel et l'échange académique» préparant les étudiants aux défis du monde des affaires globalisées. En tant que «seul pays anglophone membre de l’UE,» l'Irlande, via DCU, représente un lien stratégique pour l’ESSCA, renforçant son engagement dans un cadre universitaire européen intégré. Leadership en période de crise📉: En repensant à son expérience de gestion d'une entreprise industrielle en difficulté, il souligne que le vrai leadership se révèle en temps de crise. «Il ne faut pas chercher des excuses; il faut trouver des solutions», dit-il, exprimant la nécessité pour les leaders de donner une direction claire lorsque leurs équipes font face à l'incertitude. À ce moment, il a dû notablement prendre des décisions difficiles, comme la restructuration «pour la survie de l’entreprise et des emplois». Il explique que «les décisions courageuses sont celles qui ne plaisent peut-être pas à tout le monde à court terme mais sont essentielles pour l’intérêt à long terme de l’organisation.» Grâce à la solidarité et à la résilience, les leaders peuvent ainsi guider leurs organisations en périodes difficiles. Compétences pour un contexte économique interconnecté🌐: Il affirme que ce type d'économie d'aujourd'hui exige des compétences essentielles comme «la maîtrise des langues étrangères, la littératie numérique et une conscience européenne» pour naviguer le monde des affaires. Selon lui, «nos étudiants ont besoin d'une culture numérique pour comprendre l'impact de l'IA.» Les futurs managers doivent aussi être des «médiateurs entre l'innovation et la société» en aidant leurs équipes à intégrer ces technologies de manière réfléchie. En plus des compétences techniques, il encourage les jeunes leaders à «avoir confiance en eux-mêmes et à faire confiance aux autres» voyant la confiance comme essentielle pour bâtir des équipes solides. Optimiste, il souligne que «les générations futures sont pleines de vitalité» et prêtes à «avoir un impact positif sur le monde» grâce à ces valeurs notamment portées par l’ESSCA #ESSCA #DCU #Student #Erasmus #CEO #Leadership

What an incredible evening we had last night with the amazing Sonya Lennon at our Let's Lead! DCU Leadership Development for Women Christmas Alumni event! Sonya, a true champion of women’s empowerment, shared her powerful insights with both our current and past students. From embracing change to standing up for ourselves, Sonya explained that women have navigated monumental life changes throughout our lives, so we shouldn’t fear change. Instead, we should approach it with the mindset of entrepreneurs – eager, adaptable, and ready to take on whatever comes next. From our first period to moments of broodiness, pregnancy, postpartum, lactation, peri-menopause, menopause, and post-menopause, change is a constant for women. While we may not always welcome it, we have learned to embrace it because it’s simply a part of who we are. Sonya also emphasized that we don’t have to accept injustice in the workplace and that having men as allies in the conversation on gender equality is crucial. When we unite and create an inclusive environment, we not only become better leaders, but we also pave the way for the next generation of inspiring leaders from all backgrounds. It’s an exciting time, and we’re thrilled to announce that applications are NOW OPEN for the Let's Lead! DCU Leadership Development for Women programme starting on January 16th, 2025! This programme is designed to empower and equip the next wave of female leaders, and we’d love for YOU to be part of it. Ready to moves up in your leadership Journey?
