Speaker: Victor Cannilla, Researcher, University of Lausanne

Why are top students increasingly turning down elite career paths? Victor Cannilla seemed destined for an elite career as an algorithmic trader and strategy consultant. Despite his high performance and corporate privileges, however, he chose to walk away and speak publicly about what he witnessed behind the scenes at prestigious finance and consulting firms. In his Integrity Talk, Victor Cannilla uses personal narrative and critical reflection to explore the hidden costs of high-paying careers and challenge traditional notions of success, meaning, and responsibility in professional life.
