Leadership in Action: Experiences of Graduates of the CEO Development Program

At the start of the CEO Development Program, graduates from previous cohorts—Anatoliy Dudinsky, CEO of Amo Pictures, Iryna Slavinska, executive producer at Radio "Kultura," and Anatoliy Troshin, CEO of Banza—shared their learning experiences with the new participants. The meeting was moderated by Timur Demchuk, a lecturer at kmbs, co-author and head of the CEO Development Program, and director of corporate training programs. They discussed the value of community, knowledge, a deeper understanding of oneself as a leader, and the challenges of implementing changes within a team, along with the frequently changing demands throughout the program. “The training pushed me to focus not on numbers or hard skills, but on thoughts about the value our team creates. I am still in these reflections. This ongoing reflection since the beginning of the program greatly enriches my work today. I couldn’t have imagined how much strength this gives me,” admits Iryna Slavinska.
