In 1979, 52 students started at IÉSEG. They certainly learned a lot during their years at the school, but it was also the start of a great friendship and just like a carefully nurtured seed, it’s a friendship that has been cared for and watered (well watered!) over the years. It became their tradition to meet at least once a year and this year, just like in the biblical parable, the mustard seed they sowed four decades ago has grown into a sturdy tree. This was cause for celebration, so on October 13, 22 of them met in Brussels, as proud Europeans, for a fascinating and fun visit to the Belgian capital. They were so happy to be together that they were almost ready to start their five-year course again.

“Never get involved in office politics! It’s counterproductive !” Along with clashes of ego and devious manipulation, workplace politics is often viewed as a negative way of achieving objectives by putting personal interests before the interests of the organisation. But what if we took a different view of it and turned it into a useful tool for achieving our goals?

One of them is a qualified chocolate maker and the other an inveterate traveller so when Marie Fernandez and Pauline Delporte (both IÉSEG 2008) opened their tea room, the theme was one of travel and discovery.
