Throughout the event, students had the opportunity to relate the storyline of the book to their own future professional experiences. Emphasizing that being a manager is not merely about holding a title, but rather a process that requires diverse skills, the students focused particularly on topics such as leadership, communication, and decision-making in times of crisis.
Thanks to the humorous narrative style of the book, the idea that the often-challenging concept of management is, in fact, a skill that can be learned and developed came to the forefront.
At the end of the event, students stated that similar readings and discussions were highly beneficial for their professional development and expressed their desire for such gatherings to continue. In response to this feedback, the Department of Health Management plans to make the Gelişim Readings events a tradition to further encourage student engagement.
