Corporate Relations: a bridge between Partner companies and students
As part of the Organizational Leadership Course Christoffer Eriksson, Felix Segerstedt Grahn, Selemon Tesfahon Wakjira and Marcela Pinto took the initiative to examine how leadership was conducted at top companies in the finance industry.
Global companies such as Investor AB, Goldman Sachs and Citibank were part of the research. However, not only finance companies were interviewed. For example, Pfizer was also included due to the challenges they have faced during the covid-19 pandemic and provided a different perspective from the healthcare industry.
The contact between partner companies and students was established by SSE Corporate Relations. One of the main goals of the team is to serve as a bridge between students and companies from different sectors, aiming to develop an organic relationship between the students and their possible future employers.
The results of the research granted students the highest score as well as interesting findings to share with their professors and fellow students.
