"For me it was the first Olympiad at the university in my major. Management is very captivating for me and therefore to participate in such an event was interesting and certainly useful for professional development. Solving a team case develops systematic thinking and allows you to apply theoretical knowledge. I like to set myself a challenge, and this Olympiad was one of them. Thank you very much to the organizers, next year I would like to participate again"!
