“The motivation to go back to the university was to get new perspectives and a refresher on my knowledge. That was completely successful. Thanks to the course, I now carry out my tasks with the latest methods and can achieve more effect in the process support. The highlight, in addition to the broadening of perspectives, was the exchange of experiences with my fellow students from new industries and functions,” says Andrea Polzer-Lenius. The head of the human resources department at the sugar and starch group Agrana graduated from the Limak Austrian Business School in Linz.
