AU Students Participate in Shadowing Day
CBA senior student Karen Zakaria was part of a group of AU students that recently completed a prestigious shadowing day at the futuristic House of Wisdom library in Sharjah. Karen spent the working hours of April 21st shadowing Ms. Marwa Obaid Al Aqroubi, Manager at the iconic facility in the emirate of Sharjah which houses more than 300,000 books. Shadowing allows students to practically engage, observe, and learn what managers do daily. It is a rich learning experience for business students in particular as it enables them to follow and understand the managers' role and approach to team leadership and organizational problem solving. The AU participants in the shadowing day pronounced themselves highly satisfied with the experience and thanked their instructors Dr Rima Shishakly (CBA) and Eng. Sahar Falih Makky (CEIT) for facilitating the learning experience.
