A virtual round table was organized for Rome Business school Nigeria faculty on 17th July 2020. The theme for this 45-minute monthly event for the month of July is Open Day Unusual. The aim was to foster cohesion amongst faculty through networking. In attendance were over 30 faculty members of Rome Business School Nigeria with their cups of coffee. Amazing, right?
Displaying his creamy cup of coffee while introducing the event, Mr. Shina Alabede gave some words on the marble.
“Networking is not about just connecting people. It’s about connecting people with people, people with ideas, and people with opportunities”- Michele Jennae
“Networking is not collecting contacts; networking is about planting relationships – Shina Alabede”.
He stressed the need to promote interaction, networking, idea exchange, relationship building, and value exchange.
The highlight of the event was a video tour of key activities by the school. From the admission process, new students’ induction, lectures and lecture rooms, virtual learning environment, company visits, study tours, and up to graduation in Italy, the faculty members were taken on a quick journey through the entire user experience beyond what happens in the classroom.
Ahead of the 2021 academic year, the country director – Dr. Humphrey Akanazu, took a keynote speech on “Building Character for Innovative Thinking”.
Virtual exchange of coffee ensued as faculty members took turns to introduce themselves, their areas of interest, and their wonderful experience so far with the school.
Concluding the event, the Moderator asked these salient questions which I am sure you can find answers to:
Do we have a common ground? Do we know each other? Can we recognize each other? What can we say about each other? Do we need each other? Is there any opportunity we can harness from our commonness? Are we leveraging our commonness? Are we positioned to add value to ourselves? Can we take our commonness to greater heights? How do we proceed?
