Tuesday, 21 October, 11 am – 1 pm: oikos International - The End of Race
Date: 21 October 2025, Faculty of Organizational Sciences, New Building
Time: 11 am to 1 pm
Management education has long been shaped by competition: the race for grades, jobs, rankings, prestige. This logic has produced impressive outcomes, but it has also fostered burnout, silos, and extractive leadership cultures. If we want to prepare students to lead in a world of complexity and crisis, competition won’t get us there.
This workshop offers a live experiment in moving from competition to collaboration. Through role play, improv, and embodied exercises, participants will confront the hidden costs of competitive mindsets and practice regenerative approaches that unlock creativity, trust, and shared purpose. Together, we will co-create insights and strategies for weaving collaboration into the fabric of management education — because the challenges of our time demand emergent strategy and regeneration. Are you in?
Audience: All university stakeholders: faculty and students (max 40 people)
