Stamina Paper
News, Stories and Inspiration
Online Learning
Ontem fui contactada por um jornalista a propósito da minha experiência com formação online.
No ano passado, em plena pandemia, iniciei uma Pós-Graduação em Gestão de Pessoas e Talento com stream em Liderança na Universidade Nova SBE, que estou prestes a terminar.
Começámos no fantástico campus de Carcavelos, um luxo, e éramos mais de 140 pessoas nos vários streams, a maior parte Executivos de topo que aproveitei para conhecer e assim continuar a alargar a minha network. Um universo fabuloso de pessoas. Curiosamente da minha indústria, a Hotelaria e Turismo, éramos só duas: a Mariana e eu, o que nos valeu algumas manifestações de solidariedade e empatia, pelo impacto que este sector está a sofrer. Os mais experientes chegaram a dizer: “tenho pensado no caso e de facto não estou a ver saídas a curto prazo com que te possa ajudar”.
