Das WFI Advisory Board, bestehend aus 35 Alumni und Industrievertretern, wird die Fakultät sowohl bei strategischen als auch bei taktischen Initiativen beraten, darunter strategische Planung, kontinuierliche Verbesserung unserer Lehrpläne und Studienprogramme sowie die Entwicklung attraktiver, zukunftsorientierter Karrierewege für Studierende.
Das neu gegründete WFI Advisory Board vereint eine außergewöhnliche Gruppe von WFI-Alumni – Fachleute, die das gesamte Spektrum der Karrierestufen und Branchen abdecken. Zu den Mitgliedern zählen leitende Manager in Führungspositionen bei großen Organisationen, fortgeschrittene Fachleute, die erfolgreich Innovationen in ihren jeweiligen Bereichen vorantreiben, sowie vielversprechende junge Alumni, die neue Perspektiven und zeitgemäße Erkenntnisse einbringen.
Mit diesem Schritt richtet sich die WFI noch stärker an den Best-Practice-Standards aus, die an international akkreditierten Business Schools üblich sind.
„Wir haben eine engagierte Gruppe außergewöhnlich talentierter und engagierter Alumni zusammengestellt. Ihr kollektives Fachwissen und ihr aufrichtiges Engagement für die Mission der WFI werden sich als unschätzbar wertvoll erweisen, wenn wir strategische Entscheidungen treffen und neue Chancen verfolgen.“ – WFI-Dekaneteam
