Would highly recommend the course.  The assignments each week got everyone working from the very beginning and thinking about how they could change the display better.  Personnel Officer\n\n  \n\nWould highly recommend the course and the tutor was very well able to transfer information and help all of us to understand the meaning and how to apply it.  Systems Analyst\n\n  \n\nThis course was well delivered – gave me loads of help and tips to aid me with my assignments. I found this course very useful. It gave me great tips on knowing your audience. I got a good understanding about the importance of knowing the story that you are trying to tell. It also helped me think about how important font and colour is to your visualisations. I would recommend this course to anyone that uses data for business metrics and presents it out.  Data Analyst\n\n  \nEva Shortt is a graphic designer and art director working on design projects spanning industries such as finance\, hospitality\, construction and tech.

I just feel ready for anything now. I actually can’t wait to get back to work.\n\n  \n\nThis experience allows time for self-reflection in a safe space; allows for some “badly needed” headspace away from the noise of the office and the job itself. The insights we got from the academics was excellent\, it’s how that content triggers the bigger conversations…how I apply it in my world is what matters. It wouldn’t nearly matter what the content was\, what point you started from\, it’s where we went in the conversation that was excellent.\n\n  \n\nI gained a deeper understanding of how to balance incremental and disruptive opportunities\, equipping me to become more future ready\, enhance competitiveness\, and support sustainable growth for our Ireland-based organisation. The frameworks and tools introduced during the programme have already influenced how I approach both day-to-day planning and long-term strategy\, giving me greater confidence in driving innovation initiatives across the organisation. Overall\, this was an engaging\, challenging\, and enjoyable programme that has had a lasting impact on my approach to leadership and innovation. I would strongly recommend it to leaders in the medical devices industry and beyond.\n\n  \nCo-designed with the collective wisdom of Ireland’s Business Leaders\, Wisdom in Action offers a carefully curated group of 12 Senior Business Leaders: \n\nRich engagement with Thought Leaders and Internationally Renowned Academics.\n A space for enhancing your Critical Thinking and honing your Leadership Performance.\nA Business Mentor to help you advance your Personal Impact and Career Aspirations.\nAn innovative and energising series of activities and events.\nTwo immersive experiences over the course of one year (three days/two nights each) on UL’s beautiful campus.\n\n \n
