'Decide Faster, Decide Better: A Manager’s Toolkit'

On May 12, from 2:00 to 4:00 p.m. (CET), Université Jean Monnet (UJM) invites you to a webinar dedicated to decision-making in a managerial context. Delivered in English by Marie Borne, a specialist in management practices, this webinar is open to all universities within the Transform4Europe alliance.
