EFQM Education Community of Practice
24 January 2003, St Gallen, Switzerland
The highlight of our meeting in St Gallen was the exploration of Leadership through music. Miha Pogacnik, Cultural Ambassador for Slovenia, took the group through Bach's Fuge in B Minor, illustrating how the mood and message of the music reflects the desired evolution of leadership style.
This meeting was hosted by our colleague Fritz Forrer, who is Director of the Institute of Quality Management at the University of Applied Sciences St.Gallen, Switzerland (FHS).
