No lectures. No easy answers. Just students and professors exchanging ideas and looking at the world from different perspectives. Because sometimes, all it takes is one good question to start a great conversation. Take a break. Stay curious. 15 Minute Break, a Bocconi University original podcast, available on YouTube and all major podc
