Events
ToTAL is inviting leaders from Japan and the world in a series of lectures titled "Global Leadership Cafe" to discuss their unique perspectives on leadership with mainly Tokyo Tech students online and/or live on campus. As the second event of the series, we are inviting Dr. Sergiy Korsunsky, the current Ambassador of Ukraine to Japan, to hold an online lecture and Q&A session on the topic "Leadership in World Politics".
Introductory comment on the lecture by Dr. Sergiy Korsunsky:
It is going to be not a usual lecture, but sooner a discussion to provoke thoughts and questions. What is leadership in politics? Any differences/similarities with leadership in business? Is leadership always a good thing? How to recognize and how to become a true leader?
Dr. Sergiy Korsunsky
Please take this great opportunity to hear Ambassador Korsunsky's thoughts on leadership and communicate directly with him! This event is open to the general public.
