'You learn to think as a consultant or leader’

Marieke Rooze - Leadership and Management

'I had the opportunity to start with two specialisation fields and choose one after gaining experiences. The Amsterdam Business School is well organised. The quality of teaching is really high and the lectures are interesting. You work on real life cases of organisations like Bol.com and ING.'

'Studying at the Amsterdam Business school gives you a competitive advantage as you gain practical experiences and are supported to follow more courses of your interest.'

'The UvA invests in its students. Not just in the typical university stuff, but also in giving them practical experiences as public speaking and self-organisation. This gives you advances when your start working. I chose a public speaking course and got training from a professional speech writer and speaker. You learn to think as a consultant or leader. At UvA in Carré you get inside information from leading corporations such as Deloitte and Unilever.'

'I am currently working as a consultant-assistant at Effectory, I am a member of the council of members of the Dutch Association of Psychologists and I really see myself working as a consultant in the future.'
