OUTREACH
Below you will find clips and images of some of the talks and conferences Gisela has participated.
ESADE Business School
Esade is a well known business school, located in Barcelona, known for the quality of its education, international outlook, and its focus on holistic personal development. I spoke to MBA students at the Arts, Media & Entertainment Club.
"Gisela’s story on entering the entertainment industry was very inspiring for myself and my colleagues. Gisela’s experience and ability to convey a concise and impactful message resonated well with us here at the ESADE MBA. Unlike most speakers, Gisela can break down her strategic advice to a tactful level and not just talk at a generic high-level. She provided insightful messages and hidden gems useful when applying to both small and large organisations within the entertainment industry. Even well-after the Q+A portion, Gisela stayed an extra hour to answer individual questions from our students" Arya Ashoori. Founder, AME (Arts-Media-Entertainment) Club, ESADE MBA.
