Aalto EE intensifies the self-development component of its leadership programs

27.3.2017

With the appointment of Ben Nothnagel as Senior Advisor in February 2017, Aalto University Executive Education (Aalto EE) is strengthening its organization with an expert in self-development and applied neuro-science.

He has been a member of Aalto EE’s faculty for many years. The self-development project he designed and facilitated has become a pivotal part of the Aalto MBA and EMBA experience. His concepts of applied neuro-science have also been incorporated into the leadership development programs of many global corporations.

”Self-development programs, and the related components within general management programs, often have most impact at a very personal level. The discipline helps participants to better manage their professional and private lives. Ben has been a core member of our team and deserves to be fully recognized for his invaluable contribution and commitment,” says Dr. Pekka Mattila, Group Managing Director, Aalto EE and Professor of Practice, Aalto University.

Ben Nothnagel is an Attorney at Law, as well as an MBTI Certified Interpreter, Certified Emotional Intelligence practitioner, Certified SDI Conflict Management practitioner, and a Big Five Personality assessor. He has extensive consulting experience from working with companies such as Daimler, Nordea, Finnair, Michelin, GE, HP, Yahoo, Vaisala, Cargotec, and Danfoss to name but a few.
