Kozminski University, one of the top business schools in Europe, and Maspex Group, a leading food and beverage producer in Europe, have joined forces to support the professional development of Maspex employees. The agreement includes the implementation of joint educational and training initiatives, including tailor-made programs designed to address the challenges of a rapidly changing market.
As part of the partnership, Kozminski University has created the managerial program “Ready To Fly”, a comprehensive response to the challenges facing Maspex Group’s leaders, as well as a dedicated training package for the company’s executive team. In addition, Maspex employees will gain access to a wide range of open courses and prestigious postgraduate studies offered by the university.
“Ready To Fly” – A Key to Effective Leadership
“Ready To Fly” is the flagship development program designed for Maspex Group’s management team. It aims to equip leaders with the knowledge, tools, and competencies necessary to navigate an increasingly dynamic business environment. The year-long program consists of 11 in-person sessions held at the Kozminski University campus. It is structured to provide participants with meaningful support in building the core skills needed to thrive in modern leadership roles.
The “Ready To Fly” program is built around three main thematic blocks:
- Modern Leadership – helping participants explore how to build engaged teams, make effective business decisions, and communicate successfully across generations.
- Current Market Trends – focusing on topics such as digital transformation, the use of artificial intelligence, and analysis of the latest consumer trends.
- Effective Organizational Management – offering practical insights into strategic and operational management, value creation, and risk management.
The program concludes with participants preparing and defending a final team project before a panel. This serves as a capstone to their learning experience and underscores the competencies gained.
A Comprehensive Offer for Maspex Group
Beyond the “Ready To Fly” program, Kozminski University invites Maspex Group employees to participate in a broad portfolio of open-enrollment courses and postgraduate programs. The offerings span a wide array of topics, including management, finance, marketing, and digital technologies. Employees will benefit from cutting-edge educational solutions that effectively combine academic theory with real-world practice.
The collaboration between Kozminski University and Maspex Group stands as a strong example of how education and business can work together to drive growth. Through shared values and ongoing dialogue, both parties are creating initiatives that support leadership development and strengthen the company’s market position.
“The ‘Ready To Fly’ program and other initiatives developed through this collaboration are a perfect example of how academia and business can work hand in hand to foster talent and enhance managerial competencies,”
highlights Klaudia Fatah, Director of Corporate Training and Development Programs at Kozminski University.
