ADA BoD Campaign - Vote for Yuliya Kalinina
Hello Ladies and Gentlemen,
My name is Yuliya Kalinina and I am a candidate for the Board of Directors of the ADA University Alumni Association.
I completed the full international MBA program with a major in Finance and graduated in 2016.
I have more than six years of professional experience working at the PwC. During this time, I had an opportunity to work with professionals at all grade levels, both locally and internationally. Additionally, I was engaged in the client-oriented audit and financial consulting services. This experience significantly contributed to my professional development and incentivized me to learn beyond the specifics.
The chance to bring more value to ADA university, promote its vision and help to keep all the Alumnus around the world engaged are key motivators for me to join the Association. I truly believe in the potential of the university within the global arena, as well as in its ability to grow new generations of leaders who will make a difference and reimagine the ways of the society’s lives.
However, given this opportunity, I would like to go beyond and help the alumni and students to develop themselves both personally and professionally to be in line with current global trends.
The world is going through a technological revolution. As businesses are getting digitized at a faster rate, upskilling employees regularly is now more important than ever to avoid a gap between the skills and the needs of any organization.
By upskilling, I mean giving the students and alumni opportunities to gain the knowledge, tools and ability they need to use advanced and ever-changing technologies in the workplace and their daily lives. They need to understand and manage artificial intelligence, data analytics, machine learning and other technologies - those emerging now and those that will be created in the future.
Therefore, I would also be concentrated on both the digital upskilling of the alumni and students and growing them as leaders through the development of strong soft skills, as well as help them to promote their personal brands on the market and increase their network.
If you share my vision, would appreciate your support and vote for me on 6th December 2019 @ADA University.
Thank you.
Yuliya
