“My PREMIUM experience was more about gaining exposure to new areas in teamwork. First of all, the project I chose was about onboarding, a topic I have never before encountered. Our main objectives were to ensure that new employees became knowledgeable, independent colleagues quickly, and that new employees feel the moral connection within the company. Ultimately, we devised a plan with which aixigo would achieve these objectives, and we can proudly say that one of our team mates is now actually working at aixigo to implement our solution!  Additionally, my team mates were from various study programs, providing us all with completely different styles of thinking and working. Lastly, the programme exposed me to a largely female-dominated team, which I never encountered before in my bachelor’s program, which was largely male dominated. These new insights and exposures were the foundation of my development throughout the programme.”

“Alongside the project, your professional development is boosted by the vast range of workshops offered. New workshops meant new learning opportunities, and the chance to bond, connect and hear from other PREMIUM students. The workshops challenge you to critically assess your current state of working or thinking and how to improve that. Additionally, for the workshops where applicable, you get the chance to practice on the spot!”

“Your personal development experiences a spurt during your coaching sessions, both individually, and definitely the team coaching sessions. These are the moments to be honest to yourself and your teammates, which will enlighten your own life, improve team cohesion, or both! “
