Besides, it is not only interesting to listen to the top-ranking people; communication with all outstanding personalities appears to be thrilling and attractive experience.

Marketing trick or educational achievement?
Are there any educational benefits from involving the famous figures of society into the lecturing process? Does it serve only as the point of attraction and bring no use? A lot of people say that there is no point in random lecturing for a few times without knowledge checking and well-thought program. These lectures rather have the format of conversations and have free form of performance. Students hardly have the feeling that it is a usual academic activity; it looks like the meeting, which includes some professional hints and opinions of the experienced men. But we consider that such events and formats bring only positive contribution to the specialists’ development and education. Only few people can have an opportunity of meeting people, who have outstanding mind, brilliant business intuition or generate ideas that influence the whole society. Such lectures can enlarge your imagination and bring you at least a slight understanding about the modern geniuses and people, who gain success in this complicated and ever-changing world. A lot of modern businessmen and bankers arrange seminars for sharing their experience and this costs a lot of money.
Catch your inspiration and the brilliant ideas, which perhaps will lead you to the top of your carrier and social life. Join the prominent people in the social networks and follow their activity, attend the lectures and absorb all the information carefully. Who knows, maybe few years later you will receive the corresponding status and will become a visiting lecturer at one of the world top universities.
