« Learning Leadership in GE Management Rotation Program - Maurizio de Franciscis »

In Chapter 7 of 19 in his 2010 Capture Your Flag interview with host Erik Michielsen, education entrepreneur and Global Campus (www.globalcampus.com) founder Maurizio de Franciscis joins General Electric (GE) and enters an international management rotation program. The program rotates de Franciscis to a new country and business unit each couple months, where he selects projects to complete. The opportunity teaches him not only about executing under short-term deadlines, but also about a broader company culture norm that emphasizes execution, accomplishment, and resiliency over pure intellect. De Franciscis graduated from Universita degli Studi di Roma - La Sapienza - and earned his MBA from INSEAD.
