First-year Upper Secondary students studying Economics and Business were visited by Mrs. Anna Gener, President and CEO of Savills Aguirre Newman Barcelona. As part of the School-Business program supported by Barcelona Activa, she shared her professional journey with the students.
Her speech was particularly inspiring due to the insightful reflections and advice she provided to the students. She advised them to focus on learning and accumulating experience early in their careers. Once established professionally, she encouraged them to engage with various associations in Catalonia, thereby contributing back to society in acknowledgment of the opportunities it has provided them.
Ms. Anna Gener is a prominent businesswoman with numerous leadership roles, and is part of the board of trustees of various organizations. She serves on the Executive Committee of Barcelona Global, the Board of Directors of Mutual Midat Cyclops, and as a Trustee for both the Cares Foundation and the Picasso Museum Foundation. Additionally, she is a member of the Spanish Board of the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors (RICS). Anna contributes regularly to various publications including: Eje Prime, Economia Digital, and Vía Empresa, and is part of the Editorial Committee of El Periódico. She also shares her expertise as a speaker at the Masters in Management programs at Aguirre Newman, the Real Estate Masters at the Autonomous University of Barcelona (UAB), and the Association of Developers and Builders of Spain (APCE).
We are sincerely grateful that she made time in her schedule to share her valuable insights with our students.
