Hello everyone!!!
yes I know 🤦‍♀️it's been a long g time since our last news about Master MBM. As of March 2020 , students and university staff had to make significant adjustments in response to to the spread of COVID-19 BUT!!! despite all this Master MBM together with French partners for EFCM program never stopped. like most of the universities over the world we have transitioned to a system of ‘blended learning’. a mixture of online and in-person classes. we had students who were able to travel and so had the opportunity to attend classes on-site and students who were not able and so preferred going online. let's have a look at our unforgettable moments with the group of 2020/2021 (39 students from 18 countries) and let me say that we just welcomed the new EFCM-MBM 2021/2022 group in Padova

we are done with Operations Management (OP) and Marketing Course as well. During the OP course, our students saw interesting activities. we had one of our best former MBM students, Marcello Bellani, Group Supply Chain Director at Chromavis Fareva who analysed an OP lipstick manufacturing case study. The students faced a practical exercise called "Lean simulation". In addition, they have also had the opportunity to meet Paolo Soprano Operations manager at Pettenon cosmetics(Professional hair and skincare) company who gave a very interesting speech on a case of lean implementation.

as mentioned before during Management in Organisations course our students carried out a class exercise which consisted of a simulation to help them experience what an interview is and how to improve the skills during a talk with a recruiter. There were 12 groups of three with three roles observer, recruiter and candidate.
Really interesting and thanks to the teacher, Luca Bauckneht for supervising and his constructive advices, the students did a great job!

....And we are also done with the second Module, Management in Organisations held by Martina Gianecchini ,organisational behaviuor and HR management professor and dr. Luca Bauckneht , HR director. During this course, our students had also the chance to meet one of the EFCM-MBM former students, Claudia Scattolini now a successful Fragrance designer. She gave a presentation of her activity and her professional exeperience since she completed the master.
She created her extraordinarily unique fragrances brand "eau de parfum".
The students did also a very interesting exercise called "A DAY AS"(you will find the pictuers in the next post)
Today, the students gave their in-class group assignment presentations to prof. Gianecchini.The assignment concerned the development of an employer branding project for a cosmetics firm.👨‍💼👩‍💼

on Thursday September 27th 2018 our three MBM Italian students succeffully completed their carrier and defended their Final project works in front of the Jury.They worked on three intersting projects about lean methodology, sales comparative anlysis and Korean Beauty complexity.
Elena, Ingrid and Giulio we are proud of you!
Great job guys!
can't wait to see other EFCM-MBM studnents 16-18 in December in Versialles for their presentations and defences.

The first month of the MBM program is almost over: we started with two pre-openning conferences held by Elena Colombo former Marketing director luxury at Coty Inc. These sessions were aimed at offering an overview of the modules students will undertake over the year. This should allow all participants to 'connect the dots' of the academic journey along the year and develop readiness to enter/start a real business entity. Then the first Module , Accounting and Finance taught by prof. Andrea Menini and Luisa Pastega has been successfully completed. This course introduced students to the most important concepts and principles of accounting and finance.
