"​Xavier was the professor of the Innovation Management & Human-Centric Leadership course
​in the framework of an international MBA program that I am currently completing. 
Far beyond the static character of ex-cathedra lectures, his course represented for the cohort an invigorating and enriching journey. The gained knowledge about industry dynamics in terms of innovation and change management was paired with valuable self-discovery insights. 
Inspiring and passionate, Xavier has the flair of empowering his alumni. His pedagogic style, based on hands-on learning, not only allowed us to comprehend innovation and change management concepts, but also to genuinely embody them.
This course will certainly remain in our hearts as a precious memory of this academic adventure."
