What do we mean, in business, when we say: “I don’t know”? That we are lazy, and haven’t paid attention to the facts? That we’re dealing with a real open question and that we need to be flexible when the future unravels? Or that we really don’t know because we’re in uncharted waters?

Those three possibilities do not cover the same reality. And yet, we use the same word to describe them, namely “uncertainty.” We’ll think about the implications this has for business and leadership in the complex context of the Middle East and Lebanon.

Speaker: Jeremy Ghez, Associate Professor of Economics and International Affairs (Educational Track) at HEC Paris.

Le mot « Crise » étymologiquement renvoie à un révélateur d’un changement (krisis en grec signifie jugement, passage au crible), ou signifie la manifestation grave d’une maladie (crisis en latin).

Les crises et les plans de relance qui leur succèdent sont des accélérateurs de changements et des vecteurs importants d’innovations. Les fonds et crédits réinjectés dans l’économie ne sont jamais réinvestis à l’identique de la situation d’avant crise.

HEC Paris Executive Education is strongly committed to promoting lifelong learning for executives in the Lebanon. We would therefore like to invite you to a short series of Masterclasses. Our goal is to provide you with practical insights on a range of key topics that will help you to meet the economic and human challenges of your country.

Speaker: Tomasz Michalski, an Associate Professor of Economics at the HEC Paris business school.
