A Aalto EE (Executive Education and Professional Development) Case Study
Kaisa Latva, the Chief Legal Officer (CLO) and Legal Affairs Director at Reaktor, faced the challenge of participating in her company's executive team without a formal business education. While she learned on the job, she felt she needed a deeper theoretical understanding of business fundamentals and financial matters to speak the same language as her colleagues and contribute more meaningfully to strategic discussions on topics like pricing and go-to-market plans. To address this, she chose to enroll in the Aalto MBA program offered by Aalto EE.
The solution implemented by Aalto EE was their flexible Aalto MBA program, which provided Kaisa with a strong theoretical foundation in finance, accounting, and business model innovation, alongside valuable training in self-leadership and creative thinking. The results were a significantly enhanced holistic understanding of how different business functions interconnect and the confidence to actively comment on business matters. The program had a measurable impact on her everyday work, making it easier and providing her with tools for improved self-awareness and collaboration within her executive team. Aalto EE's program was so successful that Kaisa now believes it should be a mandatory requirement for lawyers pursuing in-house careers.
