L’atelier vise à (re)découvrir l’Economie Musulmane à travers …
1. … une démarche qui part des fondements et principes de l’Islam, pour aborder les marchés Halal et la Finance Islamique, et ce, dans un approche basée sur la Maqasid Al Sharia;
2. … une démarche qui donne la parole à des témoins et experts actifs sur le terrain, dans cette économie, en Belgique et à l'étranger;
3. … une démarche qui favorise un dialogue ouvert sur la modernité des concepts islamiques, et particulièrement la notion de ‘Halalan-Tayyiban’;
4. … une démarche qui reste pragmatique, avec un accent mis sur les acteurs de la certification Halal (en Europe et en Afrique, principalement)
5. ... une démarche qui cherche à se pérenniser avec le concours des alumni de l'atelier, aujourd'hui intégrés dans la vie professionnelle.
L’atelier s’adresse à toutes et tous, sans prérequis académiques ni convictionnels !

This portfolio will be organized in collaboration with HEC alumni working in the luxury industry. These professionals will be invited to share their experience and they will challenge students to work on a current luxury management problem. For example, « How could we use new digital technologies to communicate with our customers or targets?", « Which content should we develop to reach and attract Millennials?", or « Which brand associations could we develop to improve our image and attract new customers?", etc.
Then students will choose one theme, analyze the situation and work in teams on their recommendations.

Since you entered school, you have been surrounded by people whose aim was to educate you, to train you, to give you skills: parents, teachers, educators, professors… all these people are there to make sure that you learn.
As you are about to enter your professional life, you get ready – probably quite eagerly – to take the plunge, to leave the educative system. However, you are not done with learning: be it on your demand or on your employer’s, many coaches, mentors and trainers will still pop up in your life to provide you with new skills and help you evolve. Their interventions will nonetheless be occasional, motivated by a third person, and generally expensive.
Yet, there is a coach who is free and deeply concerned with your own objectives: you. And he can be assisted by many other consultants who are easily available and want to share their expertise: your colleagues.
This workshop will make you acquainted with the technique of professional co-development, creating a group of professional support and advice made of peers. By using this method on your traineeship experience, it will help you to optimize your learning in the last months of your studies, and provide you with useful tools to evolve in your career.
