You're invited to the 2nd FuckUp Night Brussels of the year!
Bárbara Weiss, Transformation Lead at UCB Finance. Bárbara used to own a night club in Brazil, so, obviously, she made a bigger mistake than sending an email forgetting the attachment. This story includes a lot of 'that person looked totally normal, I swear!'. You don't want to miss it.
Laurens Jan Blok, Van Gils, CEO. Laurens used to be very ambitious and blind with the idea of success. He though that people who weren't successful couldn't blame anybody but themselves for it. He is going to share how a very personal experience made him change this worldview, and how he now tackles challenges, people management, and leadership in general.
Lino S, Senior R&D Process Engineer. Lino had a brilliant academic and corporate career as a Chemical Engineer for more than 10 years. Then "bad acquaintances" and dangerous readings led him astray. His professional ambitions ended up becoming the opposite of what they used to be ...to a point where his superiors had to show him the door. How could that happen?
Thomas Nolf, artist. Thomas worked on a project in Bosnia and Herzegovina, where he stumbled upon the pseudo-archaeological project of the “Bosnian Pyramids”, a cluster of natural hills that have been claimed to be the world’s largest manmade ancient pyramids. He is going to share how his encounter with the story ultimately led to a fuck up with the National Museum of Bosnia and Herzegovina.
Bárbara, Laurens, Lino and Thomas will tell you:
- What their project was
- What went wrong
- How it affected their personal life
- What they learned
- What they would do differently
At the end of each story you, the audience, ask your ever so sagacious questions.
All accompanied by beer and good friends.
