STUDENT TESTIMONIALS
Even after more than 25 years at the helm of a national sports organisation, I can see that the world of sport is constantly and dynamically changing. The MBA in Sports Management at Palestra was a great opportunity for me to expand my education and knowledge in the fields of sports law, marketing, economics and strategic management. The course confirmed to me that, in today’s world, enthusiasm alone is no longer enough to successfully lead a sports organisation; a professional managerial approach is essential.
What I appreciate about the programme is that the teaching is not based on dry theory, but instead places a huge emphasis on solving practical examples. A great benefit for me was the opportunity to discuss current topics with lecturers who are recognised experts in the field, and the chance to address specific issues within my sport. I recommend the programme to anyone who wants to take the Czech sporting environment to a higher level.
Although I have been working in the spa hospitality sector for more than 20 years and, during my career, have held positions ranging from receptionist and spa receptionist to spa manager, hotel director and IT manager, the MBA in Spa and Wellness Hospitality Management at VŠTVS Palestra was a significant professional asset for me. It helped me to combine my many years of practical experience with modern management approaches and to gain a broader perspective on the strategic management of spa and hotel facilities.
I greatly appreciate the high professional calibre of the lecturers, who were able to combine theory with specific practical experience. I also found it inspiring to meet colleagues from various sectors of hospitality, wellness and tourism, which led to interesting professional discussions and new professional contacts.
I would recommend this course to anyone who wishes to complement their experience with high-quality management training, keep up with the latest trends in the spa, wellness and hospitality sectors, and gain knowledge that has real-world application.
