I can honestly say this was the best course I have ever taken! It was more than a course, rather an experience and an opportunity to create a better version of oneself and one’s future.

This course gave me enormous support both for professional and for personal decisions, and the Butterfly Model guided me in the right direction. Thank you so much!

The course was thrilling and full of practical insights. And it was the mix of the cases, the group interactions and the Red Bull experiences that made it so diversified and interesting.
