Background

Wisdom tree, in partnership with GBSN, has launched a series of exclusive invite-only, monthly learning and networking events in top industry verticals such as education and SAAS. The aim of these events is to have sponsor free discussions on contemporary topics impacting businesses today. 

In the third event this April, we will be hosting distinguished professors from top universities, ed-tech founders, and thought leaders to discuss the changing expectations of Corporations from graduates. In addition, we’ll examine how the curriculum has to be more inclusive of Technology, Human skills, Experiential learning and Cyber skills in order to make students more corporate ready in this post pandemic world.

This webinar will explore:

  • What are the changes seen in hiring processes in top corporations post pandemic ?
  • What is the need for B-schools to bring in change in the existing curriculum ? 
  • How do B schools adapt their students to the ever increasing threats in the hybrid workplace ?
  • What are the human skills which are needed now, specially in the new world?
