HEC Paris has presented French ambassador Eric Chevallier with a token of appreciation for his support to HEC Paris’ work in the region.
Professor Dr Nils Plambeck, dean and CEO of HEC Paris in Qatar, handed the envoy a crystal award during a ceremony held at the French embassy in Doha.
Ambassador Chevalier “plays an integral role in HEC Paris’ activities in Doha, giving participants unique access to an influential leader in diplomacy and an in-depth understanding of the nuances of top-level leadership”, HEC Paris in Qatar has said in a statement.  
Earlier this year, the envoy hosted a lecture with HEC Paris in Qatar’s 2018 Executive MBA participants during the Business Environment module, followed by a Q&A session on geopolitics and diplomacy.
“On behalf of HEC Paris in Qatar, I would like to thank His Excellency for his invaluable support to HEC Paris. In partnership with Qatar Foundation, HEC Paris helps today’s and tomorrow’s leaders in companies and governmental organisations in Qatar further broaden and deepen their leadership and managerial skill set,” said Professor Dr Plambeck.
