Julio Urgel
Professor of Finances, IE Business School. |
|
In addition to his role as Vice-chairman of the International Advisory Board of IE Business School and Chairman of its Center for Innovation in Tourism and Leisure Management, Julio Urgel manages to find time to serve as Director of EQUIS (European Quality Improvement System) and of Quality Services at the EFMD (European Foundation for Management Development) in Brussels, as well as teaching finance and negotiation at IE Business School. EQUIS is the leading international accreditation system for business schools around the globe.
In both his teaching and his consulting work, where he specialises in mergers and acquisitions, the former Instituto de Empresa Dean enjoys exploring the skills that lie between negotiation and corporate finance. “I believe I have the right knowledge, skills and expertise to advise people on complex negotiations, whether I’m teaching negotiation or mediating in my consulting work,” he says.
When it comes to teaching, Prof. Urgel, who has worked as a visiting lecturer at various international institutions, believes that role playing can prove a powerful learning tool. “I dissect a negotiation process and manage it for students to see what’s going on in slow motion,” he explains. “They simulate a negotiation and later we discuss what went on. That allows them to see what’s important, where the sources of conflict are and how you can eliminate them quickly.”
A professor who is passionate about the teaching process, Prof Urgel’s areas of focus include financial analysis, cash and credit management, global risk management, valuation and real options. However, he believes that these complex theories do not need to be overwhelmingly difficult to grasp. “One of my skills I learned from Prof. Howard Raiffa, my mentor at Harvard, was the ability to disguise theoretical complexity when conveying knowledge to students of management,” he says. “It’s a case of zooming in on certain areas without bogging students down in complex theories.”.
