A Theologian with an MBA ??

Based on his personal experience and his attitude to life, which is embedded in the catholic tradition, Bruno will provide insight into how his studies in theology and business management contribute to his development as a person, his ethics in his relationships with others, as well as the effectiveness with which he fulfils his tasks.

Some of the most famous CEO’s base their leadership on a spiritual fundament and embed purpose and authenticity in their road to success. Bruno will explore the relevance of spirituality for your work and life.

At the end of this lecture, the deeper meaning of the proverb “Being in the world, but not of it” will become very clear and help you to understand that quite many paradoxes in your life will resolve themselves by adopting the right approach to it.
