'During my master International Management, I became truly aware of the influence of corporate social responsibility on business environments, as well as on society. This made me realize that this topic is an essential point for discussion on companies’ agendas. After finishing up my thesis, related to CSR and sustainability, I wanted to continue in this field, since I believe that everyone can (or should) play a role in it.'

Which book should everybody read?
The Solution Revolution, by William D. Eggers & Paul Macmillan. I started reading this book a while ago and it got my attention because it describes the current state of the economy we are in now. This book shows me that societal problems are not to be solved by governments only. Businesses play a major role in this as well. By means of shared value creation you, as a company, try to enlarge the pie for everyone, thereby, increasing your piece of the pie as well. I believe that this book helps you to understand the current economic and societal situation. 

Best advice I ever got
If you get the chance to study or work in an international environment,  just do it!
