On a Friday night in Bucharest, classrooms fill with founders, managers, and future CEOs who chose learning over going out. At the center of this energy is Andra Ghibuțiu, CEO and co-founder of Beyond Business School, a fast-track executive program built in Romania for Romania. We talk about what is broken in traditional education, how communities create leaders, and why Romania is the right place to build ambitious schools for the next decade.

What we cover

• Origins: from law and advisory work to community building and events

• The spark for Beyond and why a weekend, fast-track EMBA format works

• How 60+ CEOs and entrepreneurs teach and mentor inside the program

• Too much theory, not enough practice: what changes on Monday morning

• Romania as a place to build and the case for returning from the diaspora

• Expansion to South-East Europe and what will travel from the RO model

• Personal lessons: doubt, resilience, and one small change for next week
