Do I have to be available for all dates outlined in the agenda?
The program is designed to provide various insights into our company, work, and teams. On top, we will invest extensive time into personal growth and training. We therefore find it most beneficial for the participants to join all events we offer. Of course, we keep in mind that some private appointments do not allow rescheduling – we would just kindly ask to let us know about it as early as possible. We cannot offer alternative dates, unfortunately.
The group events are organized in Helsinki. The 1-1 mentoring sessions can either be organized at our office or virtually, depending on your preference.
