CUNEF Universidad organises an activity to help new students make the most of the academic experience

Last Monday, 8 September, the School of Business, Economics and Law organised “The journey begins: ten key strengths to make the most of your time at University”, a complementary activity for undergraduate students.

Tomás Navarro stressed the importance of the following key strengths:

1. Agility: accepting change.

2. Flexibility: adapting to change.

3. Proactivity: coming up with new resources, solutions, realities and alternatives.

4. Openness: being open - minded and predisposed to learning.

5. Self - motivation: looking beyond what you want at the moment

6. Critical thinking: not believing everything that comes to mind.

7. Resilience: being ready to manage frustration and adversity.

8. Growth mindset.

9. Creativity: training it daily.

10. Perseverance: being ready to go farther than everyone else.
