About

Phanuel Wunu is a young scholar and mid-career professional with exceptional expertise in International Projects and Enterprises Management, Internatioal Trade and Partnerships, Sustainable Enterprise Development, Corporate Leadership, and AI for Business Solutions. He has enormous knowledge in the design of new and efficient solutions for businesses through creativity, innovation, digitalisation, and design thinking approaches. 

I believe that all students have inherent talents and capabilities before I meet them in class. In this regard, I like to coach and guide students to explore their potentials in the domain of knowledge of each course. I collaborate with my students to use the acquired knowledge and creativity in them to develop new solutions for businesses and society as a whole.  That is why CONSTRUCTIVISM appeals to me the most. Other philosophies also pay a role but in the end, we must create something better, together. That is my motivation.
