Two reasons to celebrate

At the end of 2010, the corks popped in Lucerne and Interlaken. 64 new marketing managers in the City of Lights and 142 new sales managers in the Bernese Oberland were all smiles.

New location, fresh spirit: for the latest graduation ceremony, the newly qualified marketing managers were celebrated in Lucerne for the first time in 2010. On the seventh floor of the Astoria design hotel, 64 talented individuals received their diplomas at the end of November. The ceremony was accompanied by music from Roland "G-Sax" Graf and his A Pure Acoustic Trio. There was no sign of November depression: the ceremony in the Penthouse Bar was characterized by optimism. After all, examination director Peter Gilli had good news for the graduates: "Marketing managers are masters of their trade - with the very best opportunities on the job market!"
Just one day later, the next celebration took place in Swiss-Marketing-Land. At the Victoria Jungfrau, one of the jewels of the Swiss haute hotel industry, 142 new sales managers were presented with their diplomas. The celebrity host was Kurt Aeschbacher, who presented the event with flair. Also on the program: Zurich magician Roberto Giobbi and German management consultant Peter Kreuz, who impressed upon the audience "creativity, initiative and passion as the key to success". Jean-Paul Zürcher, President of the examination board, gave the young sales managers a piece of wisdom that would fit into any bon mot repertoire: "An investment in knowledge still pays the best interest." Even if the saying of the legendary US statesman Benjamin Franklin has been around for over 200 years: It has never been as valuable as it is today.
